Two-Face
As was spilled online several months ago, there are at least three villains in THE DARK KNIGHT, Christopher Nolan's sequel to BATMAN BEGINS.
The Scarecrow, last seen fleeing the Narrows on horseback, returns for more drug-induced hijinkery. He'll be played again by Cillian Murphy.
The Joker is all over the promotional materials, obviously.
Aaron Eckhart plays ambitious and idealistic Gotham DA Harvey Dent, the new boss of Rachel Dawes, now played by Maggie Gyllenhaal.
Eckhart confirmed in several interviews that Dent would get burned
by acid somewhere in the film and become duality-obsessed supervillain
Two-Face. In addition to elements of The Killing Joke, the film seems to
borrow from The Long Halloween, which features both Harvey's destruction and rebirth and also the rise of "the freaks" in Gotham City, much to the chagrin of the entrenched mafia.
In Nolan's more realistic approach, I wonder if uneasy and temporary
supervillain alliances are possible?
Under the cut....
