2. Christian Bale – $80 Million
We consider Christian Bale the best Batman so far and we know we are not the only ones believing that.
This time the Batman films featuring Christian Bale were directed by Christopher Nolan. And those movies have become the most successful films in the entire history of the franchise.
Since DC is taking their characters in a different direction, a direction that wouldn’t interpret Batman as the only superhero in his respective universe, they decided to go with a different actor as well.
While Bale initially didn’t want to keep doing Batman movies, he later admitted he was mildly jealous of Affleck and wished he could play the character again.
