Bale offered £40m to don cape and cowl for Justice League

Christian Bale has reportedly been offered £40m (€46.5m) to reprise his role as Batman in "Justice League."

The 39-year-old actor - who portrayed the caped crusader in Christopher Nolan's 'Dark Knight' movie trilogy - previously ruled out returning to the long-rumoured DC Comics superhero team-up project, but movie bosses are determined to get him onside and star in the potential film by offering him the hefty sum.
