Biography:"Christian Bale" is one of the few actors in Hollywood whose child stardom has successfully translated to steady and respectable adult employment. With a wistful handsomeness to complement his impressive, sometimes underrated talent, Bale has become something of a quiet sensation, netting choice roles in a number of unconventional, critically acclaimed films.

Born January 30, 1974, in Pembrokeshire, Wales, Bale was raised in England, Portugal, and the U.S. The product of a creative family (his mother was a dancer and both of his grandfathers were part-time actors), Bale made his stage debut at the age of ten, playing opposite British comedian "Rowan Atkinson" in The Nerd. In 1986, he debuted on television as Alexis in the miniseries "Anastasia: The Mystery of Anna". His film debut came the following year with the lead role in "Steven Spielberg"'s adaptation of "J.G. Ballard"'s "Empire of the Sun".... Full Biography
