The Dark Knight Aaron EckHart up for dent!

[Retroman]

Aaron is a great guy. Liked him ever since "In the company of men" and he was great and fun in "Thank you for smoking". Just to clarify a thing, he wasn't considered for the role of Batman, but for Gordon back in the Aronofsky period.
Too bad that if he get cast as Dent, they won't make a Green Arrow movie with him.

Thanks for clarifying

He's a decent actor but i don't really see him as Dent........time will tell

O RLY?

 

[Eddie Dean]

I hope he gets it.

 

[Hunter Rider]

O RLY?

By see i didn't mean literally,any half decent looking guy can be made up to look like Harvey,i mean visually he's as generic and architypical as Bruce but everything ive seen him in he when he tries for charisma/charm he comes of sleazy like a used car salesman to me

 

[Babs Gordon]

I've seen him in a lot of stuff and I think the characters demanded it of him. I think he's a great actor and I look forward to him tackling the role. Although they should probably tone down the dirty blonde in his hair, in my opinion. I really think he can bring credibility to the role.

I'm proud to say I planted that idea long long ago, even before this account had been made.

You make a fair point Babs,That's why for now he is on my "wait and see" list as i'm not sure yet but he may come off If he does get it

I'm liking the sound of Eckhart for Dent, lets see how this pans out.....

 

[Milkman95]

Aaron is awesome - if he gets the role, I'd be very happy.

He wasn't mentioned among my favorites, but that's simply because I forgot about him. This would be FANTASTIC casting.

 

[Darknightnomis]

... although gorgeous, is delightfully creepy.

Man, if I had a dollar for everytime I heard that....


But Hey, EckHArt is solid actor and I thnk he would be a great choice (outside of Guy Pierce that is)

Oh yeah. I broke this one.


Go me.

Holy ****, Eckhart is great actor it would excellent choice to add to quality cast.

 

[Compi716]

I really like this choice. I'd be very pleased if Ekhart got the role.

Is there some reason why Nolan is casting really good looking men for all these prominent roles? Cillian Murphy for scarecrow? Heath Ledger for joker??? Aaron Eckhart for Harvey Dent? I mean it's all very homoerotic. I'm shocked Brad Pitt wasn't picked for Gordon.

Yes, because Bruce Wayne is good looking and so is Harvey Dent. Ledger won't be so good looking once that makeup is on . And Babs Gordon covered Cillian Murphy, delightfully creepy! hehehe

 

[FlawlessVictory]

In all honesty, I'm surprised Aaron Eckhart is being considered for Dent. He has no Oscar nominations and he was born in the US!

 

[MechaOrga]

Its cool we finally have a front runner

Eckhart is really a 180 from damon.(both goodlooking but for different reasons)especially in the bankability department as well as money wise(Eckhart im sure is waaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper than Damon)

The thing about Eckhart is the fact that he won't get audiences more hyped or excited(Damon would have gotten them alot of press plus he is doing nothing but quality acting in good movies) but nolan probably doesn't care about that right now.

Who ever says Eckhart doesn't look the part is crazy. He looks like every single male comic book hero ever drawn!!! with a chin like that he could play The Tick!!

I hate to say it but if i had a choice between Norton and Eckhart i would chose Norton( Hear me NOLAN....nolan?)

 

[D.P.]

Needs the brown hair and then he's good.

Seriously, tell me this was not serious.

Put my two cents in here... not what I was expecting... but if they made us wait this long... they shouldv'e had something bigger and better...

 

[The Only Woj]

plus he bangs Katie Holmes a couple times in Thank You for Smoking

 

[Miranda Fox]

*ahem* On the subject of this topic - Eckhart? Hells yes. That is all.

Also, that Filmick blog is really bringing the lulz:

He claims he got an e-mail before LR. Sure you did chuck! And you just sat on this big scoop because, um, why?

I wonder what would happen if I ask for a screencap as proof? Bearing in mind I can spot photoshopping a mile away.

film ick: I see Latino Review have Echart too - just - but, interestingly, my source's e-mail predates their post. I wonder if we're getting mail from the same tipster?


LOL. Well, film ick is sticking to Rachel McAdams being in TDK and their claim is that she won't be Dawes. I guess we will just have to wait and see how this plays out.

Interesting that we get Two-face news on the second day of the second month...

Heh and I called it on the Dent thread. t:

Now let's hope this means the announcement is round the corner...

 

[The Only Woj]

Maggie being up for Dawes ... makes me wonder, had Jake been Bruce, if they'd ever have them both in the same movie and being love interests with each other. probably too incestuous.

I don't think we could get much better for Dent...
