Christian Bale breaks from filming Dick Cheney movie to greet fans at LAX in Los Angeles

Former Batman Christian, 43, is known for throwing himself into his film roles and he has gone further than ever to play the politician in a new drama.

Pictures from the set show the Brit sporting a bald head and Cheney's trademark round glasses as he films scenes.

Hollywood beauty Amy also looks a world away from her usual glamorous self as she steps into the role of Cheney's wife Lynne.

She is see wearing a short blonde wig and prosthetics on her face to change her into the politician's partner.

Amy, 43, looked dramatically different as she strode across the set in her red skirt suit and kitten heels.

At one point she appeared to have troubles with her skirt and was seen hitching it up to fix her tights.

Fans are more used to seeing Amy with her long, red hair and she looked unrecognisable in her guise as Lynne Cheney.

The Cheney movie was previously called Backseat, but it is currently untitled and it is being filmed in Los Angeles.
