The Dark Knight BOF: Dent "Candidate" Eliminated

He also posted this on the forums:


I'd say it's a black actor and seeing as how Jett hinted on his blog (it's now deleted for some reason) it was an Oscar winner, that's two choices and both I'd be pretty happy with.

I'd prefer Denzel over Jamie Foxx though. Because Denzel is...Denzel.

Denzel Washington would be all kinds of awesome. If it is an "unconventional" choice, i hope it's him. Of course, Denzel isn't really that unconventional when you think about. We've had a black Dent (Billy Dee Williams), and an old Dent (Tommy Lee Jones) and those are the only ways in which Denzel differs from the usual comic portrayal of Dent. But still, I hope it's who they're referring to, as Denzel's definaltey in my top 3 Dent choices (Schreiber or Cusack are the others).

I fear Jett just kinda nixed Liev. I was never a massive supporter but a lot of you were.

Apparently, Jamie Foxx is on tour next year so...if it really is a black, Oscar winner then that's Denzel.

I watched Deja Vu other day and I thought Denazel Washington was amazing so if anyone have doubts about him playing Dent - do not go see Deja Vu

Jett named Denzel his pick:

If the choice isn't "conventional" and they're allegedly "aiming high," what about Denzel Washington? He's a little old for the part (IMO), but he's one hell of an actor. Remember this...

Link to the Bermejo drawing

That's Denzel as Dent by Lee Bermejo (click on the pic to enlarge) -- he did that for BOF a couple of years ago when I interviewed him. Don't read anything into this BOF'ers, this is just my suggestion and nothing more...

Mmm.

Jett is just craving for news and he is making up sh:t just to prolonge his job.... tell us something we don't know...

 

[Cinemaman]

Jackman would be great choice

TBH, I am getting a big tired of these vague hints. If you have something to say - say it. If you don't or can't, then don't. Stringing people along is not cool.
