I don't like the title at all. Just very unimaginative. But I am happy Riddler isn't the villain, since I think he and the Joker are cut from a similar cloth.

Lots of DC Universe movie news today, most surrounding the newly named The Dark Knight Rises...

1) Seems like Tom Hardy, who was cast in a role for The Dark Knight Rises earlier this month, may be playing Detective Harvey Bullock. At least that is what comicbookmovie.com is reporting from IMDB....

Got some stills from Green Lantern thanks to Entertainment Weekly! Enjoy!


Also, for all you Batman fans out there, not sure how true this is, but comicbookmovie.com has an article from someone who claims to know a good friend who revealed that Charlize Theron has been approached to play Gotham Detective Sarah Essen and Kacie Thomas and Vera Farmiga have auditioned for the character role of Julie Madison.

Again, not sure how true this is, but you can read it here regardless:

GL looks good, but they could have picked a better female lead.

I still want to read Green Lantern: Secret Origins before I see this one, but I can't wait to see this movie!

Is Clayface going to be the villain in The Dark Knight Rises? io9.com seems to think so as they were tipped off recently that it seems Basil Karlo will be the next villain to square off against the Dark Knight.

According to the website, producers of "The Dark Knight Rises" have begun holding auditions for the part of Julie Madison (actresses listed as having auditioned include Kacie Thomas and Vera Farmiga). The website also makes a Clayface connection by pointing out that, while the character has ties to Batman, her comic book history has the young woman starring in the remake of a fictional classic horror movie, 'The Terror,' which previously starred Basil Karlo.

Thanks to Comicbookmovie for the scoop!

Aaron Eckhart doesn't expect to reprise his role as Harvey Dent in The Dark Knight Rises. Okay, it's not really news, we've known this for quite some time now, but recently Eckhart spoke with ShowbizSpy and was quoted as saying: I just don’t have any idea. I really don’t know and if Chris gives me a call, I’ll come but I don’t anticipate a call.”

Again, not really news, but this latest interview seems to cap off any possibility of Two-Face showing up in Nolan's Batman threequil.

Thanks for passing on the news ComicBookMovie.

I'd be surprised if Clayface was in DKR, that character doesn't fit into the established feel of the previous movies. All the previous characters have been realistic.
