3. Christian Bale
Christian Bale is a British actor who is kind of known for going on psychotic tirades while on movie sets. He was hired to play Patrick Bateman in the movie American Psycho. The hit movie chronicled an up-and-coming Wall Street worker in the 1980s with a psychopathic, murderous alter ego. After he landed the role, Bale was fired, and no one really knew why. Leonardo DiCaprio was hired in Christian Bale’s place, but DiCaprio had to back out of the role due to the success of Titanic. So, that left the role for the lead in American Psycho open again. Ewan McGregor was then offered the role, but he declined. Since the studio was out of choices, they decided to rehire Bale, and this is one of his most noted roles to date. Looks like his original reason for being fired wasn’t that major.
