With the release of this summer's BATEMAN BEGINS and his upcoming role as the Gill Man in Universal's much-anticipated BLACK LAGOON, is Christian Bale in danger of becoming typecast as "that masked actor?"

I doubt it. He's played varying roles, from a jaded kid hero to a psychotic monster to a sweet mentally challenged boy. So, yeah, I doubt it.
