  • I miss Harvey...

  • @2:24 Bad guy! Kill him!!!

  • Man I wish the next batmanmovie would come soon. Watching the Dark Knight makes me hungry for more!

  • 2:12 amazing

  • 3:47 = BADASS

    Bale is the best Batman by FAR

  • batman & roker?? roker?wtf?

  • The voice is perfect in that scene with lucious. I hope it's like that all the way through in the Batman3

  • @MuffFuzz Apparently Christian Bale performed it this way but they changed it in post.

  • that suit even looks good without cinematics.. props to the costume department

  • HAHAH LOL he said heath ledger 02:55..

    thats not heath ledger ... thats "The Laughing Man"..

  • /watch?v=fFH0khjgA0U

  • I hate that old Batman music from the 60's. I love Molossus that is more like Batman.

  • LOL at 0:03-0:04 =D

  • Lol theres a mistake it says Batman And The Roker instead of Joker

  • i'm with mute711

    That pic IS STUPID lol

  • What's with that Heath Ledger picture they showed? Did NBC just do a google image search for a pic of him as the joker? That's definitely a fake.

  • "There's a lot of sweating going on over here" haha so true!!!

  • He has so many accents. It makes me swoon. :)

  • I remember when me and my brother waited to see Heath Ledger talk about the Joker on the special features.

    Verry sad what happend to him. RIP Ledger!

  • "YOU getting to interview really GOOD looking guys" Ouch lol.

  • It's so awkward how stupid Roker is about Batman, even on the household known facts(I thought professional reporters/hosts were supposed to do research before interviewing someone). He so is belittling the movie.

  • actually, he asks dumb questions to get the interviewees talking and get good quotes to do the segment. I would know - I'm journalism major

  • what was that dance about

  • Just imagine the interviews people could have had with Heath as the Joker if he was still alive. RIP Heath Ledger...the clown prince of crime!

    Woohahahahahahaha!!!

  • he's sooo sexy... wow..

  • Sorry but Heath Ledger Joker is WAY hotter than any other guy alive. Haha. Especially in that nurses dress! XD

  • that wasnt him. Thats from an old moving. I think it's called the laughing man or the man who laughed. Something like that.

  • that doesn't look like heath at 2.56. am i the only one that thinks so?

  • It's Conrad Veidt from the Man Who Laughs. It's an old silent movie, but the character inspired the Joker back in the late 30s. Very stupid of NBC to put that up as Heath Ledger

  • lalalalalalala...BATMAAAN!

  • lol the background music...

  • lol @ joker's pic

  • Man heath why didnt you do an interview i know you hate the papaerazzi but come on its the dark knight

  • You can tell Heath hates publicity, by choice he will very rarely do an interview, including this one!

  • yeah i guess he was still in character. this interview was taken before he's death. I haven't seen one conference with him in it... sigh

  • AHHHHHHHHHH He's sexy!

  • He's on set, acting... what's wrong with keeping in character, like the accent? And Eckhart played a good Two-Face. Now, I'm going to find a two-sided 'tails' coin on eBay to do a little Two-Face of my own... XD

  • IronGuy50 - It's a take of Batman and Robin you dumbass. Guess you didn't get it after all.

  • Ahahahaha, the Conrad manip!

  • he uses an american accent so he doesnt confuse audience

    you retards

  • god you guys suck everyone who first heard that harvey dent was a character in the movie knew right away that 2 face was gonna be in it

  • He's not losing his accent...in interviews with movies where he plays an american, he uses an american accent so he doesn't confuse the audience...you idiots

  • wow 2 face is in this movie

  • is that heath? Cool interview...love aaron!!

  • Hmmm...They show a picure of Conrad Veidt for Heath Ledger and Aaron Eckhart says his face is burnt by "acid".

  • Both bullshit huh.

  • well aaron eckharts character becomes two face

  • his face was burnt by gasoline and fire by the explosion that follows.

  • when doing the batman publicity, he speaks like bruce wayne so as not to confuse us wit his brit accent

  • His accent is well fucked up lol! He's British but why is he sounding almost American? Someone explain:S

  • he's from Whales, and anytime Christian Bale's promoting Batman, he uses an American accent. Batman/Bruce Wayne is, after all, American, right?

  • He said he didn't want the American people to feel a brit was moving in on an American icon. lol for the first year or so Batman Begins was out, he faked an American accent.

  • Dude the only thing I don't like about the suit is the cowl it's to thin and it makes his helmet look weird, alot of people have said this before me so stfu.

  • well, at least this time Batman gets to move his head and neck. He used to look very dumb and stiff (moving his head with his shoulders) so hopefully this time, we'll see Batman move more naturally.

  • Oh Yeah your right LOL, he used to move his whole body when he would look around, so when he fought it looked retarded, so this time he'll be able to do more fighting moves and stuff.

  • lol

  • sometimes he uses an american accent..like he is here..because he doesnt want to surprise pple too much..but really he is just confusing us!! but i still loooooove him!

  • Christian Bale can do different accents, but his real accent is Welsh. But who cares if he loses his accent, hes hot!!

  • bale almost sounds like hes losing his accent

  • bale does interviews in whatever accent he has in the movie he's promoting at the time so it dosent confuse people

  • no i watched another interview with him about this movie and he had his regular accent.

  • Roker knows shit about Batman.

  • the black guy is sooooo gayyy XD

  • Is anyone else tired of hearing the old batman theme from the Adam West days? The whole point of these new movies is to create a batman that is completely different than the 60s Batman, the way Batman was originally portrayed in comics and the way it was intended. I guess it seems worse to me when I see Al Roker dance like a moron.

  • Oh yeah, and screw the person at NBC for selecting that Batman theme for this interview.

  • Don't think much of it. I don't know if you watch a lot of morning TV, but no matter what subject matter they deal with it always has a lighter, easy-to-digest substance to it. I guess it makes it easier for people at large to watch and enjoy early in the morning. There are plenty of us who appreciate how Batman has evolved from a campy guy in tights to a more realistic, aesthetically pleasing image, so don't fret.

  • Good point, fair enough. And I'm not really a morning tv guy, obviously.

  • dis guy is gay "i enjoyed it"

  • Anyone think Roker would've done that "Pulp Fiction"-isc dance in the very beginning if Bale was actually sitting next to him?

    That picture of "Heath Ledger as Joker" was a waste. They should've just showed a picture of Ledger, himself. Despite it not really being him, it was a horrible picture.

  • I agree with the comments made on Bale's tactic in keeping with his characters' accents because I've read the same thing on the Internet before. But, it seems to me that the more I see him interviews, his real accent may just be dissipating, and as just a fan watching, can only detect a smidge of his English roots.

  • Why would he be trying to explain things to the interviewer as himself, while, also, worrying to mimic an accent? I think everyone these days knows who Christian Bale is, and knows he's not an American. If they don't, I don't really think it'd create much of a downfall when they find out.

  • After saying all this, if he's not fully using his own voice in this video, I can understand staying in character if he is in mid-shooting.

  • Loving that accent! Bale owns me.

  • I loled when i first saw the whole "Batman & Roker" title lol.

    (You know Batman & Joker/ Batman & Roker)

  • bale hides his welsh accent so american fans don't get put off that their american hero is not played by an american.

  • really i wondered what he was doing the yank accent for? it's a shame he has to do that because he looks like a bit of a prick in doin it for an interview

  • he's trying to stay in character, they were probably filming during the interview, and no that wasn't Heath in that picture, this was before any images of the new joker came out

  • so are you

    id gay, FUCK U

  • You're not creative. You're just a noob.

  • I'm a noob because i have an opinion, well this is America so fuck you, yeah i may have been a little harsh when i said it was gay, but now i think it's not that bad, but i don't like it completely, maybe i should have just said that instead of saying it was gay, and for that i'm sorry, but you asses need to understand that i'm an american, and american tend to express their opinions by saying gay, maybe i should have been aware of what i wrote.

    P.S. FUCK YOU!

  • Big American man, arguing for the dumbest reason ever. You're speaking in illiterate bubbles. And being American doesn't mean you get special privileges to be arrogant. And no, you aren't a noob for having an opinion. You're a noob for stating that an inanimate object has a sex drive and/or is attracted to other suits of the same gender.

  • i'm tired of arguing about this I already said that I was sorry for saying it was gay and I should have expressed my opinion differentley but i'm not the only one on youtube who rarely does not think when they write maybe I should have spent an hour writing a essay on what about the suit i didn't like but no I felt like saving my time and just wrote it was gay and what i should of wrote was I don't like the suit and as I said before I think it's not that bad now but i'm not the only one who...

  • you better be sorry.

  • sometimes writes without thinking, so get off my back.

    P.S. sorry if i offended you.

  • that picture of Heath Ledger they show at 2:56 in the video is clearly not him.

  • Why is Bale not speaking in his natural accent? I heard he gets so involved in his characters that he actually speaks like them outside of shooting. Is this true?

  • I don't have an answer to your question, but I'm wondering the same thing...weird.

  • LMAO at 2:56.

  • Bale is indeed my one of my favourite actors and i hope this movie lives up to what its been hyped to be..Personally I think Nolan is an excellent director and he'll pull it off

  • lol i loved the fake picture of the joker they used.

  • Roker, I thought it was joker. lol

  • Why do they keep on playing that silly 60 batman music?

  • Probably because it's familiar to people than any of the previous Batman movies..

  • Bale is awesome.

  • Not liking the skinny neck on the new suit. Other than that it looks v.cool.

  • hm

    yeah, i liked his big neck.

    made him look like a beast :)

  • yeah, it looks akward, but they said they did it so he could move his head around cause he couldn't really do that with the original cowl.

  • What disrespectful bullshit, do these assholes even know who Heath Ledger is? Yet alone what he looks like?! Not even a 5 year-old could make that big of a mistake. Stupid fucking cunts.

  • lol whats the deal with the picture of the Joker that they showed when he said "Heath Ledger"? They couldn't show a picture of the awesome Joker Heath portrays?

  • Maybe the studio was keeping the look of Heath's Joker a secret until it came time for the movie to come out,like they did a few months ago..Just maybe.

  • they used another phot for heath ledger in 2:56 and i was like what the hell that was a guy in a fan made batman film not nolan's so i got kinda pissed

  • i heard its a rumor though that robin might be in the thrid for a quick cameo and then star in a spin off either called Night Wing or Robin im not sure but that is what i have heard

  • so two-face is going to be in batman 3

  • Actually Christian is English but was born in Wales. His family is English.

  • The new Bat-suit is off the hook! But I still think the neck part is a lil too skinny and it makes it look like Batman's gotta bucket sized head lol but never the less the suit in a whole is still bad ass

  • Roker: Heath Ledger...

    *Conrad Veidt manip shows*

    :|

    Joker should blow-up the NBC building.

  • why is roker doing this interview? i thought he was a weatherman

  • Bale speaks in a English accent if his character is english and in an American accent in interviews if his character is american!

  • thats because he stays as the character off set

  • Bale isn't English, he's Welsh

  • yeah I agree, I think he has lost a lot of his accent though. even in some of the interviews for the prestige where he was using an english accent he still spoke in this accent in the interviews. I deffinantly think he has lost his accent comparted to 2002 reign of fire interviews if you watch them

  • Great job with Batman, Nolan. Now all you need to do now is reboot the Superman fanchise. SuperMan Returns was OK and Smallville has turned more into another teen drama instead of a actual show about Clark Kent journey of becoming SuperMan.

  • I am so in love with Christian Bale. Just the expressions on his face when he speaks...

  • Mr. Bale has stated himself that he's of English ancestry.

    England Prevails!

  • 2:56- heath ledger? what is going on here- that is fan made and its not even him!

    plus at the end- i love a man in leather.. its rubber darling

  • Conrad Veidt in The Man Who Laughs.

    And yeah, a BIG fuckup.

  • lmao yea, shame on Today. i think they should do their research before they just pluck a random pic from the net. well i bet whoever made that actual pic is feeling pretty accomplished lol

  • its rubber darling :D

    ahaha

  • Roker is a hack.

  • THANK GOD someone can tell a welsh person is not from england!!!!

  • He is an Englishman who happened to be born in Wales.

  • Roker is a lazy, lazy, man. I've seen way too many interviews where he seems like he has done absolutely no homework on the subject.

  • bale totally stays in character even in the interview....that's why the accent is STILL american!

  • To me it sounds like he was still partially in character in his head because it sounds like he was oscillating between the American accent and his original accent on certain words.

  • Ok ok...so when they used that cheesey theme song from the old TV show at the beginning I was thinking "lame"....BUT did you all notice their crappy journalism skills??? Look when Al Roker says "you've got this amazing cast...christian bale...morgan freeman..HEATH LEDGER.." Look at the photo they put up when they say Heath Ledger!! That's not Heath Ledger.....that was an internet viral hoax before the cast was even announced. It's a photoshopped photo from some 1940's movie.....oh my oh my...

  • Christian Bale is awesome, one of my favs. Michael Keaton are definitely the best Batmen ever. Can't wait for this one!

  • I think the extra mobility of the new suit will really pay off on screen when we see him moving in it. In the lighting of these behind the scene videos, it looks a bit odd, but in the final shots i'm sure it will do just fine. We'll get some really good stunts in this suit.

  • Somebody please tell me after 40 years and new, more accurate versions of Batman later that whenever the mainstream media does a report on Batman we need to hear the old TV show theme? Way to disrespect the character with the Batusi before you do your report, Roker!

  • Batman&Roker Batman vs Joker lol coincidence. Bale is crazy with accents once he develops one it'll stick for awhile and mix at some point your muscles change thats why

  • Christian Bale Is Welsh

  • mixed feelings about the suit...skinny neck looks funny to me. but im tired of the move your whole body to look left and right thing too so...

  • thats odd, christian used batman's accent, not his own. i wonder how one man can have over 12 accents and keep them straight. wow

  • yea nice Joker pic NBC

  • LOL al roker enjoys sweaty men.

  • Christian Bale is a unique dude; he ditches his British accent depending on who's interviewing him.

  • If I remember correctly, he said he doesn't speak in his usual Welsh accent during interviews because he didn't want people confused that the man who played Bruce Wayne doesn't really sound like him.

  • This is not as good an interview as I think fans would appreciate, but maybe the film-makers don't to give away too much. That's my theory anyway and if so, that's excellent of them because I don't want to see it all in trailer-form before it hits the big screen, you know? It's a very special film and well worth the wait :-)

  • Someone should nuke their studio... buncha-pompass pack of grinning puppets.

    Heath is goin' to terrific as the joker, and they didn't even have the decency to put in the right picture.

  • Do these idiots even know what Heath Ledger looks like?! Anyways, nice clips, thanks for uploading.

  • dude...interviewer is an idiot.

  • Lol the way aron describes harvey dent is very funny. He's disfigured and he's not such a nice guy anymore.

  • that's hilarious how his accent slips

    cuz apparently in his american films, he keeps his american accent and in his british ones like "reign of fire" he's a brit

  • lmaooooooooooooooooooooo the accent

  • Harvey Dent role should go to Governor Spitzer!!!!

  • his welsh not british

  • Wales is in Britain. If you are Welsh, Scotish or English you are Birtish.

  • I meant British, not Birtish. Sorry for the typo

  • Yepp.

  • hes actually british, but he was trying an american accent 4 the interview

  • Hey whats with his accent? It just keeps changing...

  • I had read about how they made that new cowl that would allow batman to turn his neck in this new movie... and I had also seen the making of batman begins where they mentioned at one point how his neck being so thick made him seem like a panther and what not the thing is now that his neck is all thin he just looks like he's got a huge head... this new cowl sucks ass!

  • Playing the silly '60's theme during the intro is just wrong.

  • yeah it really sucks

  • I like the new suit but the one thing I did like about the suit in begins is the neck, it gave him a huge neck that made him seem like a beast or an animal.

  • Exactly! And that's exactly what they said in the DVD Features about that particular cowl and how that huge neck made him seem like a panther or something... but that pencil neck he has now just makes it look like he's got a huge ass head!

  • Is it me or the new costume really sucks? It seems like the neck is so tight it looks fragile

  • Your right dude, it does look ridiculous it makes his head look huge.

  • haha.......

  • i love how when they said heath ledger they showed a fake picture.

    geniuses

  • omfg

    2face is ganna be this this movie too

    they give us severl cules

  • holy guacamole!!!!!, his head looks tiny, in the trailer he looks good though

  • Christian Bale does/did work out a lot for the Batman movies.

  • cool; I wasnt saying he didnt. Just saying ya gotta be in good shape to wear spandex.

    why are so many people vetoing me?

    (didnt think I had said anything all that inflamatory)

  • Sorry bout that, It guess it seemed a little offensive to me(and a few others).

  • why cant' people accept this is a new franchise. Everytime anyone does any coverage of batman begins or the dark knight they make references to the other movies. NO wonder people get confused. I loved the 60's batman but this is a darker approach so you don't need the cheesy music.

  • he's hot but i wish he would speak with his real accent!

  • there are a few points where you can hear a tiny hint of it

  • there are a few points where you can hear a tiny hint of it

  • It was kind of a mix and his welsh was in there a little. When he does interviews he tends to use an accent close to the one he is using in that movie.

  • they need to get rid of that campy 60's batman music.
