The Dark Knight: Batman 2

Batman Returns 2 has a name: Batman: The Dark Knight

Well, rumors have been growing for weeks now on who will play the Joker in the next movie. Here’s the scoop from Dark horizons.

(("As a follow up to last year's blockbuster Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan is set to direct Warner Bros. Pictures' The Dark Knight, written by Jonathan Nolan, based on a story by Christopher Nolan and David Goyer. The film will be produced by Emma Thomas, Charles Roven and Christopher Nolan. Additionally, Christian Bale will resume his role as Bruce Wayne and Academy Award nominee Heath Ledger has been cast as The Joker. The announcements were made today by Jeff Robinov, President of Production, Warner Bros. Pictures.))

While I am not a huge fan of Heath Ledger, I think he could pull off the Joker nicely. Also, here’s hoping that Nolan doesn’t go off the deep end like the way Tim Burton did with Batman Returns. However, Nolan has a lot good talent in front of the camera to pull off a good movie.

((Production is set to begin on The Dark Knight in early 2007"))

Note: Can we please recast Katie Holms’ role?

(Another side note: I smell a set up for Batman 3 in this film, Remember the DA was killed in the first movie and I bet a certain guy by the name Harvey Dent will show up in this one as the DA).
