    Since Nolan, who is British, has an affinity towards casting his fellow Brits, what actors/actresses should be considered for future roles, even if its only in a minor role.


    I for one would love to see Jason Isaacs in a role. I'm not sure what though. Maybe a corrupt city official.

    Or a new character that has a connection with Alfred.

    Anyone else.

    Clive Owen would be great. My personal fave for the role of Harvey Dent!

    But I would also cast him as Black Mask as well.

    Jason Isaacs would undoubtably pwn as Mr. Freeze. I could see him in an original role, tho.

    Isn't DDL Irish?

    Anyway, I can't think of any specific actors except for Hoskins as Penguin, though recent reports have said he turned it down, leading me to nominate Robin Williams as my top choice.

    I'd like to see Anthony Hopkins as Calender Man. I'd also like to see John Hurt in a role, jut not sure which one. Maybe Dr. Arkhum, although I'd prefer Brad Dourif or James Cromwell. I'd also like to see Vanessa Redgrave as Leslie Thompkins.

    Nope, he's British.

    I could have seen him as Alfred, but if he could do an American accent I could see him as Arkham.

    I guess its all depending on your point of view. Lewis is British by birth but he is now an Irish citizen. He moved there in 93 and took up Irish citizenship along with the move.
