Casting News: Top choice for Harvey Dent
By Kellvin Chavez on February 1, 2007
So here we are once again bringing you some exclusive casting and behind the scenes news for The Dark Knight.
We've learned that the leading contender for Harvey Dent is Thank You For Smoking's Aaron Eckhart.
Great choice because Aaron physically fills up a suit well and he has the chops.
Who's now up for Miss. Dawes? Let me rant a bit before I get to who's now up for the role.
Last week, we broke that Katie Holmes was indeed kicked to the curb and would not be back to reprise her role as Rachel Dawes. She tried to save a bit of face by going to The Wall Street Journal and plead her case for leaving. But c'mon now! The Wall Street Journal?!?! Why them?!?! Probably because Variety and HR wouldn't let her in the door with her "Entourage."
OK, on with the news.... Batman On Film has been on the ball with their casting news regarding Rachel McAdams and Cinema Blend chimed in with Emily Blunt (both are indeed in the running).
Now added to the mix is Maggie Gyllenhaal. I don't particularly see Maggie as Rachel, but interesting hopeful.
So there you have it, Aaron and Maggie up for some prime roles. I'm pulling for Aaron and Emily! What do you think? Yay or Nay?
