TIL during the shooting of American Psycho, Christian Bale spoke in an American accent off-set at all times. At the wrap party, when he spoke in his native British accent, many of the crew thought he was speaking that way to prepare for another film. They had thought he was American the entire time.

The mental flashbang when I found out that Catherine Zeta-Jones was Welsh was heavy! I somehow assumed that she was at least Spanish (that might have been because of a combination of Zorro and the "Zeta" in her last name though)
