About: How cool is the Batmobile?
Bale: I think they did a really wonderful job with it. I’m quite in awe of the men who engineered and designed the whole thing
because I’m not really good at any of that kind of thing. And they created actually a one of a kind car that can actually
genuinely do all of the things in the movie. That was very much the aim of everybody on the set, that we wanted to use as
little CGI or models as possible.
About: You can actually drive it?
Bale: Oh yeah, I did. It does everything. They all do different things. There’s a number of different ones, but they
all do everything that you see it do in the movie.
About: What are your favorite Bat gadgets?
Bale: I don't think it’s quite as gadget heavy. We have the introduction of how he acquires all of these. We’re very
much interested in looking into how Bruce Wayne manages to acquire everything. And I guess there’s a grappling gun which is
the kind of most commonly used one. That was the one I actually had in hand each and every day.

reinventing the franchise?
Bale: I didn’t feel it.
About: How does the suit fit and how long was that fitting process?

job it is just to make sure that it is looking right and working right and there’s a conveyor belt process of creating these
suits. It’s very involved and it has progressed since the first movie.
About: How much mobility do you have in it?
Bale: It’s pretty mobile, yeah. I could do everything I had to do in the movie. I believe it’s Neoprene.
