We were giving him the benefit of the doubt, but things are not looking good for Christian Bale.

A new report has us reevaluating what we thought we knew of the Batman star.

The actor was on set last Friday shooting Terminator 4 at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico when all of a sudden he exploded!

During one scene, the director of cinematography, messed up a shot - or so Bale thought.

Christian reportedly went ballistic, screaming "I will kick your ass", amongst other harsh things.

Several hundred people - cast, crew and extras - heard the outburst.

Not cool, Christian.

Not cool at all!
