Christian BaleChristian Bale, The Batman star, 34, was arrested in London on Tuesday over allegations he attacked his mum Jenny, 61, and sister Sharon, 40, at the capital’s Dorchester Hotel on Sunday night.

Bale, who has denied the accusations, was subsequently released on bail but reports have now emerged online claiming that he also lost his temper while shooting action movie “Terminator Salvation at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico.

According to TMZ, the actor became incensed when he thought Shane Hurlbut, the director of cinematography, messed up a shot.

The site claims Bale screamed, “I will kick your ass” to Hurlbut, before hurling several other insults at him, in front of hundreds of cast and crewmembers, as well as Military Police officers.

However, other sources have played down the reports, saying Bale was simply “extremely tired and having a bad day”.

Forget bad day, it seems like he’s having a bad week!

Bale is due to return to London to face possible assault charges in September.

    Bale seems too in-control of himself and too smart to ever physically go after anyone

    This story is pretty unbelievable. There are zero details about anything. And who leaked this story to the press? (Mom and sis?) He hasn’t been charged yet, so it wouldn’t be public record. And the idea that losing his temper verbally with his director is in any way evidence that he would PHYSICALLY assault his own mother and sister is simply ridiculous. There is certainly no evidence he’s ever been violent. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mom and Sis plan to profit from this somehow, as so many celebrities parents and siblings try to do.
