Can Christian Bale ever fail to impress you? Don't scratch your heads for the answer is no. The American Hustle actor is all set to blow your minds with his biopic on Dick Cheney, whose resume is as impressive as his life journey. The trailer focusses on Cheney's extraordinary life and his journey from a mere Washington bureaucrat to America's Vice President under the reign of George W Bush. The film as we can see in the trailer will further give us an insight into Dick's life and how he served under different American Presidents including Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. The Dark Knight to Get Rerelease in Select IMAX Theatres.

Is that really Christian who's playing Cheney on the big screen? Well, yes he's the one and we wonder if any other actor would have justified this character so well. It wasn't easy for the Batman actor to step into his shoes but then again, whoever said he likes anything easy? Remember the time he lost 60 pounds for The Machinist in 2004 and then gained all his muscles back for Batman Begins in 2005? Guess embracing different looks comes naturally to this Oscar-winning actor and Vice was no different for him. For his role of Cheney, he had to shave his head, bleach his eyebrows, and put on 40 pounds. Phew!

Watch the trailer below

Vice also stars Amy Adams as Lynne Cheney, with Steve Carell as Donald Rumsfeld and Sam Rockwell as President Bush. The movie is expected to hit the screens in December this year and we don't know about you folks but our Christmas present is already here.
