Watch Christian Bale Audition For ‘Batman Begins’

Briefly: This is damn cool.

The Dark Knight Trilogy: Ultimate Collector’s Edition is set to hit stores this Tuesday, and one of the great new special features just so happens to be Christian Bale’s screen test for Batman Begins. He performs complete in Batman Forever Batsuit, and even auditions opposite Amy Adams.

It’s really neat to finally be seeing this all these years later. On an interesting note, it appears that Bale’s oft-revered / oft-hated Batman voice is present in the audition, albeit in a toned-down form.

Take a look at the audition below, and let us know what you think!
