Oscar winner Christian Bale is no stranger to making himself unrecognizable in a movie role.

He practically disappeared into the role of an industrial worker by losing a staggering 60 pounds in 2006’s ‘The Machinist’ and now looks to have gained a few in director David O. Russell’s newest untitled film shooting in Boston.

The ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ director which has the 39 year old opposite Amy Adams in a true story that follows an FBI sting operation in the 1970’s referred to as the Abscam Scandal, also stars Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence.
