16 Oscar Nominees we’ve seen without cloths (With Pictures)

11. Christian Bale

The general vibe around Christian Bale seems to be that he’s no stranger to nudity. This is largely based on one memorable role as the sexy killer Patrick Bateman in American Psycho, in which he spent a good amount of time in sex scenes of various levels of depravity. But recently, Bale’s roles have been rather staid. With three appearances as Batman (generally locked inside a plastic suit), a role as a futuristic general in Terminator Salvation and Oscar nominated roles in prestige projects like The Fighter andAmerican Hustle, Bale has stayed away from bare skin lately. This year, Bale is nominated for his role as a hedge fund manager with Asperger syndrome in The Big Short.
