The Dark Knight BOF: New Dent RUMOUR

WRONG. nolan doesn't need an A-lister in terms of popularity. I'm sure going for it means in dramatic talent, a true actor's actor. tom cruise is not going to be two face dude.
 
Wait a minute. I know Nolan and he would never pick those actors who I just mentioned. Wow what a relief.

So you what, I think I have figured it out and this is big, REALLY BIG but before I tell you who, here are my two alternatives.
Viggo Mortensen

Ralph Fiennes
 
Viggo Mortensen effectively played Harvey Dent in History of Violence. I could dig it.

Dent, Damnit!

Thursday, November 9, 2006 - 12:29 PM In regards to the casting of Harvey Dent, it looks as if none of the rumored candidates will end up with the job -- not to say that they were not in the mix. In addition, there are whispers that they are “aiming high” in terms of the actor who will ultimately portray Dent. There is also been some strong indication that the casting of the future Two Face may not be considered “conventional.”

... I hope this doesn't mean a black Harvey Dent.
I think so. :csad:


But, I would not hate it if it was Mr.Washington...





:cwink:
 
I wouldn't really MIND a Black Dent, I just would rather a white one.
 
Denzel would be spectacular but I wonder if he'd steal the show, he might?

I like Raybia's idea of Ralph Fiennes and Viggo Mortensen. I like Ralph more, though.

I gotta say it: I'd still rather have Phoenix.
 
Okay, Here We Go. I Have A Strong Feeling About This But This Is Merely Speculation...at This Point.


Harvey Dent Will Be Played By:


DANIEL DAY LEWIS​




I guarantee that Dent will be one of these three:

Lewis
Fiennes
Mortensen

Ok I'll add Dicaprio​
 
Possible. Very possible. Tho I'd rather his Gangs of NY costar :o
 
I wouldn't mind a black Dent, but I'd rather have a comic accurate Dent.
 
Love Daniel Day Lewis but don't see Dent in him. Love your other two picks though raybia.
 
man . . . Dentzel would QWN! get it? DENTzel yuk, yuk, yuk . . . . I really don't care if Dent is black or not . . . I do wonder what this 'unconventional' might mean . . . this could also mean an older Dent, or an 'ugly' Dent . . . . and "aiming high" . . . . maybe they're trying to get Cheech in the DA's shoes :D

THAT would kick ass (day lewis). Oh BTW- i think it's hilarious that you can guarantee casting. Have you predicted any of the other choices? Right...
 
ralph fiennes SUCKS. and don't bother throwing all of the movies he's been in, I know he stumbles into some well-made movies, and I've seen them all, but I personally find his acting bland and lifeless.
 
Jett mentioned on the BOF forums that the reason it's taken so long is the #1 choice for Dent didn't want to do it.
 
Hmmmmm....

I wonder if possibly Nolan is taking a cue from the new Battlestar Galactica with his take on Harvey Dent. Could you have a female DA named Harvey Dent??? Strange.

I'd just like some concrete news instead of the constant rumor mill.


Raybia, I'm curious as to what makes you so sure? I'm interested to know. :D
 
Denzel is probably a good bet. Other than that, I dunno. I don't mind them changing Harvey's race or gender as none of those things are particularly essential to the character. I'd prefer he remain male, but the color of his skin is a non-issue as far as I'm concerned.

Of course there's always the possibility that "unconventional" just mean, not the type of actor you'd expect... somebody who's not an adonis, somebody who's older or younger than expected... at this point I'm not getting all bent out of shape over it. I'd suggest the rest of you calm down, as well. :D

But it's news, and we're on it like stink on poo. Just remember, I'm kicking the first person who freaks out with worry.
 
I don't care if they change Harvey's skin color as long as the actor is good and commited to the part. I also don't mind if it's another "out of the blue" casting decision, as long as it is within the realm of believability. No Tom Greens or Johnny Knoxvilles for Dent.
 
I have an idea of who it could be. I hope to god it is him. I'm not gonna say it because I'll probably jinx it. :o
 
ok so lets' assume we go along with jett's inside info( Unconventional, someone NOT mentioned before...)

ok so hawke is out, shrieber is out, pheonix is out, law is out, is out....

ok so who are we left with that's an A-lister as per what jett said.......

Pitt? Denzel? Cruise? Help me out guys and gals..there aren't many big stars so this shouldn't be too hard( and no mentioning people that were rumored for the part)

Im gonna go with Owen cause he is unconventional(leave him british) and pretty well known( well not really.....HELP)

daniel Day lewis won't go near this with a 20 foot poll BTW(i love him to death but he wont do a comic book movie and IMO is a little old to play dent---unless of course dent is old in the script)

Well I did predict Bale but when it comes to Dent, if I'm wrong, nobody will remember my guarantee, but If I'm right, I'll make sure EVERYONE remembers my guarantee. :woot:

I wish I could say that I have an inside source, or that the Grip Boy at the movie set that I do maintaince on told me he heard from the set assistant or some BS like that but alas...

I know only as much as you. Just say its a hunch. The #1 choice had to be convinced to do this role (Day-Lewis) because he probably feel this genre is not worthy of his profession as an Achtor. But those United Kingdom ties are strong so I'm sure that Nolan and Lewis fello UKers convinced him (as well as the big azz check he will probably receive.)

I just have a feeling. This would be the biggest casting coup in the history of the Superhero genre.

Ahh, I see. Thank you. I'd like to fly over to England, infiltrate the hangars, and covertly set up a thousand webcams.

Who knows, you may be right. :batty: :woot:
