The Dark Knight *SPOILER*The Rock as Two-Face?*SPOILER*

[Van Petrol]

Acting chops debate aside, I can definatley see a resemblence between The Rock and Harvey/Two-Face from TAS.

 

[Warhammer]

No offense to the Rock because he seems like a cool guy but Im still taking awhile taking him seriously as actor.
It wont help if I will be snickering a lot in TDK.
He's being deemed as the next Arnold S. so hate to have bad memories from Arnold's Mr.Freeze.

Don't blame Arnold for being a bad Mr. Freeze.
Blame Schumacher and Co., because it's his fault that the movie was campy and a POS, let alone even casting Arnold has Mr. Freeze. Arnold could've even pulled off Freeze great with the right director.

Actually what I first thought.

 

[L0ngsh0t]

The only problem I see is that he's not white

actually two face isn't exactly ron howard, the man has some tint to his skin, i think 89's Dent played by Lando might actually come closer to resembling two face then TLJ did in forever

1. According to Wikipedia, The Rock weighs 250 lb (113 kg) and is 6 ft 3 ½ in (192 cm). This is cosiderably less than his billed height and weight of 275 lb (125 kg) and 6 ft 5 in (196 cm).
2.If the page cannot be displayed, it's not because the page doesn't exist because I tested the link myself. Try the page again later and see if it works.
3. The Rock is not listed among the cast because he has not been officially anounced yet. The person who wrote that read the second draft of the script.
4. The people here who are bashing IMDb are probably afraid that it might be the truth. And those people are probably afraid of that because they think that he will run aroundthe whole movie shouting,"I am the Great One!". But let me ask you this: Would you rather have Schumacher and TLJ come back?

last I heard Rocky was 260

last I heard Rocky was 260

That's only what WWE billed him as weighing after he came back from doing The Scorpion King.

Looking at pics of him now, he definitely is not 260 lbs. and he is sporting long hair as well. Possibly for King Kamehameha?

Although I like The Rock this would be a horrible casting choice. Can anyone even picture the rock as a DA? He's one of those actors that is defined by his previous roles in this case as a wrestler. He hasn't proven himself yet.

I can see it now, I'll be sitting in the theatre and wondering when Two Face is going Rock Bottom Batman.

Can you smell what the Two Face is cooking?

 

[Nepenthes]

Um what about the Rock as Bane?

I'd say great if he wasn't already known as a wrestler type.

i don't know if you where one of the fools behind the schrieber bettany dammit craze that hit these boards about 5 months ago, but neither of those two actors have proven themselves ready for a starring role in an important movie, but that didn't seem to bother most people...just thought i would point that out, because in all reality the Rock is actually the only actor of the three to play a role that wasn't similar to all of his other roles (a homosexual wannabe thesbien in Be Cool)

so for all those still riding high on schrieber for dent i say, with all due respect for schrieber i just don't see the fit, i say the rock and schriber would have a very similar outting as Harvey Dent/Two Face

 

[Octoberist]

It's funny.

So I brought up Elvis Costello (no offense to him) so i'll get a bunch of "I can see him as Harvey".

 

[Spider-Fan83]

will, these shots are about the best I can find of the guy, in terms of dent pics, (clean cut, and in a suit) and I still don't see it working

I'll give him that his acting has improved over the years, but, hes just not the right fit Dent(or two face) imo

 

[WeaponXProject]

The Rock is definitely not a candidate. He should stick to videogame movies and casts Arnie would take if he wasn't Governor. The Rock should go after the Predator 3 movie in 09 or T4 in 08/09. The Rock should not play a multi-dimensional character. There is no shame in playing the badass butt kicker. As Two-Face he'd look like Ban whereing a Dent costume. Frankly he'd look to big for Batman to fight.

i believe the role that most people consider his best is a multi dimensional role (Be Cool)

but good that you brought this up because he most definatly should be the next Terminator that would be way money

but yeah i don't want him for Dent ether, i just like sticking up for him because i think he doesn't get enough credit for being a decent actor primarly because of his WWE stuff, and his early action career

 

[MrHateYourself]

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnno. No.

Are you seriously deeming the Rock, as an actor, as being superior to Leiv Schreiber and Paul Bettany? You truly live in a fantasy world.

 

[batbat_29640]

Wouldn't it be funny if Bettany got the role of Harvey?

 

[metkalfe]

On Bettany and the Rock. No on all counts.

 

[Invisiboy]

Now you see it?

 

[Mister J]

Just stop.

 

[Fenrir]

The day when Chris Nolan casts The Rock as Harvey Dent will be the day the hell freezes over.

 

[L0ngsh0t]

the rock is a decent actor, but he just isn't Dent

 

[kingdomhearts]

The eyebrows will give me nightmares.

 

[Superhobo]

Bump for posterity.
