Christian Bale has claimed that his infamous rant on the set of Terminator Salvation was done in character.

In an interview with US GQ magazine, Bale, 35, claims that the angry tirade he launched on the film’s director of photography, Shane Hurlbut was part John Connor part Christian Bale.

“I’d definitely say that that guy who was yelling was at least half John Connor, and the rest was Christian Bale,” he said.

The Batman star also answered critics who have blasted him for his transatlantic accent, despite his British roots.

He revealed that the reason for the “transatlantic drawl” is because he can’t switch out of character so easily.

“I do that because I’m just not very good at switching between two voices. If I had the talent to turn it on and off on cue, I would. But I don’t, so I have to maintain. Otherwise I’m aware that I’m ‘doing an accent’ whenever I’m filming, instead of just speaking. Hey, listen, I don’t make any excuses. None of it is excusable.”
