From Cannom's Deadline interveiw, the makeup artist for Cheney exclusively: deadline.com/2019/02/vice-christian-bale-greg-cannom-oscars-prosthetics-interview-1202554576/"With Cannom focusing on Bale’s Cheney transformations — in the end, he noted, Cheney was in the room and Bale was not — Biscoe as head of the makeup department had 130 people to make up, everybody else in the cast. But the focus, of course, was on making The Fighter Oscar winner into the man who generally pulled the strings during W’s administration. “We kept changing things, trying to get the [63]-year-old look down first, the one that everybody knows,” Cannom said. “A couple weeks before shooting, I did a test on Christian, and I really liked it, but Christian still wanted to make it better, change it, a little thicker neck and everything. I was arguing with him, “No, it’s too much.” But Christian wins out every time, so the producer said, “Do it.” I think we only had five days to redo the whole thing. That Saturday before shooting, he was in the office, put on the suit, and I was like, “No, it’s too fat, I think.” He put on the fat suit, and glasses, and teeth, and walked in the room, and everybody just could not believe it. I was like, “Oh my god, you were absolutely right,” and that’s what’s in the film. He looked just dead on.”
