​Based on the extremely controversial 1991 novel by Bret Easton Ellis, the film version of 'American Psycho' was met with just as much controversy during pre-production with multiple actors & directors walking away from the project. David Cronenberg, Stuart Gordon, and Oliver Stone were all one board to direct at one point or another until Mary Harron took the helm. Meanwhile, some of the actors tapped to play Patrick Bateman, who ended up bailing, included Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, and Ewan McGregor; with Christian Bale actually having the courage to tackle the role and the potential backlash. With a budget of $7 million, 'American Psycho' ended up pulling in $34 million worldwide and became an instant cult classic. It's interesting to look back at the film that was meant to be a career killer but ended up catapulting Christian Bale into stardom.
