The Dark Knight The Official Rene Montoya Casting Thread

[Antonello Blueberry]

Nolan would get someone that is unknown or someone we haven't mentioned on SHH.

You're telling us he's reading the boards to avoid casting names we mentioned?

 

[Golgo-13]

Well if that's the case then Eckhardt would never have been cast as Two-face...

 

[Two-Face]

You're telling us he's reading the boards to avoid casting names we mentioned?

No I'm not saying that, I'm thinking it will be like Heath Ledger as Joker Nobody on here never mentioned him while we thought it would be Lachy Hulme and Paul Bettany. We will be like "I know her, she's good great actress"

Well if that's the case then Eckhardt would never have been cast as Two-face...

I don't recall on here that fans wanted Eckhart as Dent before he was attached with TDK. It was Liev Schieber, Guy Pearce, Denzel Washington or Joaquin Phoenix and Ryan Phillippe.

 

[Golgo-13]

I'm not going to try and find it but somewhere in the Two-face specualtion casting thread, there were ppl that had thrown his name in the pot way before he was cast...

 

[metkalfe]

That's true because I have seen Eckhart's name mentioned before for Harvey Dent by some fans so I dont believe that WB-Nolan only goes for actors not mentioned by fans on boards.

Renee Montoya Casting Rumours: Carla Gugino, Salma Hayek And Sarah Michelle Gellar
Thursday, March 29, 2007

Not long after I post a short piece about the possibility of Renee Montana appearing in The Dark Knight, a few e-mails arrived that claimed to know who was going to play the part. A couple named Carla Gugino, which made a certain amount of sense, one named Salma Hayek and one named Sarah Michelle Gellar. Gellar seemed like an odd girl out.

Now Aint it Cool have linked to a short piece on a Joss Whedon fansite that also suggests Gellar is going to be in the film.

Somehow, though, I don't believe it yet. There's enough Buffy fans out there that her name gets attached to just about everything by over-enthisiastic fans.

As much as I would love to see Carla Gugino in the role, unfortunately that guy is a notorious bull****ter. I actually caught him outright lying over something to do with Spider-man 3.

But it's something to discuss. Thanks Batarang.

 

[Van Petrol]

No worries Miranda. I've heard about this guy being far from reliable or genuine, but thought I'd post it anyway.

No problem! I just wanted to let you know in case you weren't aware. He's one of those people who *seems* credible.

 

[Golgo-13]

Out of those 3, defintely Gugino. But isn't she tired up with this season of 'Entourage'?

Hayek, whom i love, just doesn't seem to fit the role, plus i don't think she's working now because she's pregnant by some lucky bastard.

gellar.....Gellar couldn't act her way out of a paper bag, imo.

 

[Nepenthes]

Gellar couldn't act her way out of a paper bag, imo.

Sarah Michelle Gellar in a paper bag - now that would be tragic

 

[itsthebatman]

She'd make a great younger version of her, but something tells me they're going a lil' bit older.

But sh'e only 30 in the comics?

 

[Crooklyn]

The girl barely looks 21.

 

[SilentType]

The girl barely looks 21.

She is 33 and has a 13 year old daughter. (She mentioned it on The Shield commentary)

Just noticed this, don't know if it's new but at the bottom of the page it says:

Monique Curnen has been cast as "GPD Detective Ramirez."

Detective Ramirez sounds latino to me......

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1010931/

 

[Bond]

Hmm, interesting...

She looks like Montoya. .

 

[Crook]

Why can't we just call her Montoya? Ramirez...who?

Umm, so?

Are you trying to say that this might be the codename for Renee Montoya?

 

[Bat Brain]

No, trying to say that there's a female, latino cop in the movie who, apparently, isn't Montoya.

Okie dokie.

 

[Caliboy]

just give me jennifer esposito

 

[Lando81]

Judy Reyes! The Only Choice.

 

[creamyiraq]

I like Roselyn Sanchez....but maybe it's just because she's hot.

 

[xanberkeley]

I dont mind Annabeth Gish from the X-Files or ER's Julianne Marguiles.

 

[Judson Caspian]

Marisol Nichols for sure. She both have the looks and attitude to play the character.
