Reports are circulating that Tom Hardy's mystery roles as a villain in Christopher Nolan's upcoming The Dark Knight Rises has been revealed to be a character from the graphic novel Prey, a deranged police psychiatrist named Dr. Hugo Strange!

Great pick though.

That Dr Hugo Strange looks a shit load like Sir Ben Kinsley.
Dr Hugo Strange is a hell of a character. This would be epic!!! I fuckin love it.

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman
And as I hoped, Bane is a villain and is confirmed as Tom Hardy's role.
I love Bane, but I really don't care for Catwoman. Oh well, trust in Nolan I guess.

Nolan's catwoman could be great or a complete mess, female characters are definitely not one of his strong points.

What, no Halle Berry? But she was so ethnic and exotic! Anyway Anne Hathaway is mostly shit, don't care for her in the slightest, hopefully she won't end up trampling on the already diabolically tarnished image of Catwoman that black lady managed to achieve.

Anyway Anne Hathaway is mostly shit, don't care for her in the slightest, hopefully she won't end up trampling on the already diabolically tarnished image of Catwoman that black lady managed to achieve. She is shit. I cannot recall one film where she was memorable or interesting. It almost seems like stunt casting just because there are women who like her and will watch her swat flies for 2 hours if shes in something. As for Halle's Catwoman, in fairness to the character of Catwoman, that movie was so far off point it shouldnt even be mentioned. Michelle's Catwoman was ok though. The only good Catwoman is Julie Newmar, and that was in the campy 60s series. Bane is legitimately exciting tho and Tom Hardy is perfect. He'll have to bulk up even more unless Nolan changed the character (which he did with Ras al Ghul), but I dont expect him to have done so. This Bane shouldnt compare to the one in the Clooney Batman, thats a total Hollywood creation compared to the one in the books. Im hoping this film sets up Azrael for the next film if Nolan decides to do it.

People lollered at Heath Ledger being cast as The Joker, and that went OK eh I quite like Anne Hatherway, me. She's decent in Rachel Getting Married, and is watchable and likeable enough. Could end up being the role of her life Tom Hardy will be cracking, mind. And both villains should fit nicely into Nolan's "realistic" Batman world Here he is after hearing Bring The Light the other neet

Could end up being the role of her life I'm not lol'ing at the casting. IMO there's a dozen actresses that could pull Catwoman off. My eh attitude is more towards just the character by itself. I trust Nolan and I'd bet on it being good, but Im not thrilled Catwoman is involved. The fact I dont like Hathaway as it is just adds to the disenchantment at this point.

I didn't mean you tbf, it was more the general wave of knobs ripping into her on Twitters I think she'll do alreet. I can see her in the role quite easily, and it took me a while with Scarecrow, Two-Face, Joker. Same for Bane. Tom Hardy is a great casting, and i can see it straight off Though tbh, i was hoping for Nolan's take on the Hush storyline. Read that recently as the rumours about this film darted about, and it's brilliant Cut out Superman, and Batman getting hold of Catwoman's jugs, and it's a right winner

I'm not convinced Hathaway has the chops to pull off Catwoman without it coming off as really campy. She seems better suited to more lighthearted upbeat roles.
I'm interested in seeing how they handle her costume though

Can't say I'm surprised with the choice, as Nolan has a soft spot for dull as fuck women. In fact, I think I bet she was gonna appear here. Don't care for Catwoman either, but I'm confident he will make the character fit in the world he has created.

Doesn't the Warner Bros announcement only say that Hathaway has been cast as Selina Kyle, not Catwoman?
