It would honestly be a shame; Bale has an outspoken hatred of those kinds of movies and has sworn up and down that he'd never lower himself to do one. He's always prided himself on being a "serious" actor and not a CGI/motion capture Blockbuster Movie kinda guy.
Like, he'd be good in any role anyone wants to cast him in, because he's Christian Bale. But it would be sad to see him do a movie like this because it would basically be an admission of, "Yeah, I snorted all my Batman money and now I'm kind of stuck."
It would be kinda like how Sunny/Tammy Sytch refused to even pose for Playboy in her prime because she was "above" that, and then ends up doing buttsex porn in her middle-age because of her drug problems and legal fees. One part "Yay, finally!" mixed with two parts "Oof, that's actually sad they have to resort to this."
