Peter Sarsgaard is Gotham District Attorney Gil Colson

[Eddie Dean]

Who knows what they’re cooking up?!

 

[Spider-Aziz]

 

[Wheels]

I’m gonna laugh when it turns out Clayface doesn’t exist in this universe again..

You're s wet blanket lol.

 

[TheSmoothKnight]

He basically states that his character is not a good person. The Batman talk starts around the 3:30 mark.

 

[Blade Hoarder]

Skargaard is playing district attorney

Hell yeah

Gil Colson

Who dat?

Gil Colson

Who dat?

Someone who probably dies in the movie lol

 

[terry78]

Couldn't even give him the choice part of Dent huh?

 

[Gothamsknight]

Sounds like his character is gonna be one we love to hate.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Yeah, as a fan of Sarsgaard, it's a little disappointing that he's not playing a classic Batman villain but I'm sure he'll be good in the role unless they secretly hired the writers of Green Lantern, lol.

 

[Kane52630]

Doesn't sound like he's gonna be secretly Dent, but I don't think they'll give a role to someone like Peter Sarsgaard if it's super minor.

 

[chintai80]

maybe sarsgaard will be dent's corrupt predecessor.
bought and paid by falcone
and battinson takes him out, paving the way for dent to come up.

 

[Kane52630]

Basically if Carl Finch was corrupted.

 

[TheSmoothKnight]

What if Peter is the guy in that leaked picture that had “No more lies”.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Could be but I just looked at the picture and it looks like that guy has blond hair.

 

[Kane52630]

Just a guess but he probably has a wig for the role.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Maybe. But the social media post of him getting his head shaved seemed to imply that it was for this character. Of course, maybe it was - meaning that he just shaved his hair off to make the wig easier to apply or whatever.

 

[Sawyer]

Probably not the case, but the corrupt politician angle has me hoping... Rupert Thorne? Hamilton Hill?

Has you hoping for what?

 

[Blind Bat]

My guess is that since he's shady and in the political arena, he therefore is the obvious suspect when it comes to the murders... until he himself gets killed, throwing the whole investigation out of whack.

Just don't make him a Trump analogue. I swear if they put him in a blonde wig and do that I'll be beside myself. I'm sick to death of beating that dead horse.

 

[Sawyer]

Genuinely don’t know how I managed to miss that that was him in the trailer.

 

[Art Vandelay]

Genuinely don’t know how I managed to miss that that was him in the trailer.

The trailer was pretty dark, IMO. I wouldn't have known either had you not posted about it.

 

[Schlosser85]

I didn’t notice either.

 

[craigaat]

I honestly recognised him right away. Well, maybe on the 3rd watch.

Judging by the explosion I'd say he'll end up more like No Face than Two Face.

I don't see that happening.
