Batman cast rumours are always fun and now Latino Review is reporting that the Penguin (rumoured to be played by Philip Seymour Hoffman) will not be in the Dark Knight, but it is unknown whether this was ever true or was a recent change in the script.

Also director Christopher Nolan is supposably deciding between three actors for the role of Harvey Dent (Two Face) after his first choice Matt Damon turned the role down. The three actors causing his casting dilemma are Edward Norton, Jamie Foxx and Josh Lucas. Personally I don’t understand the problem here, Josh Lucas doesn’t have the acting chops and Jamie Foxx is wrong in all ways for the role including the fact that Harvey Dent isn’t black (and I don’t care if he was played by Billy Dee Williams in the original Batman, that role was a joke). So the obvious choice is Norton, who is not only is a fine actor but he also suits the role incredibly well.

If you want to see the character of Harvey Dent in all his glory I recommend watching Batman: The Animated Series, especially the two part episode “Two-Face”.
