It's great to hear that Bale connected to his role as Batman so much that he is taking this conclusion to heart. I think he has done a great job, after playing the Dark Knight in three films, becoming Bruce Wayne and making people all over the world love the trilogy. He will be missed as Batman… Check out what he had to say about his final moments playing Batman and what he is taking away from the experience:
Christian Bale got to keep one cowl from each film, he says he:
"treasures them. I have been deeply honored to inhabit this character."
He talks about letting go of Batman & his last moments of portraying him after so long:
"We had been filming for seven months. India, London, Los Angeles, Scotland, New York. We had been moving with all this momentum. It was a massive undertaking. Physically, emotionally, every way. But suddenly we were in the final throes. I sat down and asked for a little space. I stared at the cowl for a good long moment and thought, 'Man, this one really took on a life of its own."
