Two-Face is Dead, So Says Harvey Dent
When you’re doing press for one movie and people keep asking about another, how do you shut them up?
“No. I’m dead. ”
Aaron Eckhart attempted to quash rumors of a Two-Face return in the next Batman movie in at least two published interviews tonight, here and here. He’s out promoting the upcoming Alan Ball film Towelhead, and along the way had to tamp down rumors of everyone’s favorite crusading district attorney turned whiner supervillain making a return.
No big loss, considering the tepidness of his turn in The Dark Knight. (Angry commenting can now commense.) I don’t imagine seeing Eckhart create a villain as malicious and sociopathic as we all now expect from the Batman franchise. It will be hard for even the most gifted actor to deliver anything comparable to Heath Ledger’s performance as the Joker. Still, they will try.
So, Two-Face is dead. At least for now.
