Christian Bale Discusses How Heath Ledger Showcased A Hidden Skill While Making The Dark Knight appeared on www.looper.com by Looper.com.
Actor Christian Bale hopped on GQ’s iconic-character series and spoke specifically about his experience playing Batman in Christopher Nolan’s trilogy. When talking about his work with Heath Ledger on the award-winning film, he revealed that besides being an incredible actor, the late Australian star also happened to be an expert go-kart driver.
When talking about some of the fun activities the cast and crew took part in during the filming of “The Dark Knight,” Bale explained that they went go-karting. Based on the people attending the outing, it seemed clear to Bale who would succeed in the race. “When we went to the track, we thought, ‘Of course, the stunt guys are going to win,'” the actor recalled. “Then suddenly Heath wins, gets top place.”
Shocking as that was, Bale explains that Ledger revealed a pretty good reason why he had this skill. After beating out Bale and the rest of the crew (including the stunt performers) in the race, Ledger mentioned that his father used to be a professional go-kart driver. According to the records of Driver Database, Heath’s dad, Kim Ledger, had a racing career throughout the ’80s, placing first in the 38th West Australian Speed Car Championship. Well, that indeed explains his late son’s hidden skill.
