Warner Bros. has announced casting news for the next Batman movie, titled The Dark Knight Rises.
Anne Hathaway will be playing Catwoman. Sounds like a great idea to me. The movie needs a babe, and Hathaway definitely qualifies. It's also nice if the babe actually dresses up in leather and joins in the action, rather than being a mere 'damsel in distress'.
There had been much speculation about who would be the villain in this installment. The Riddler and Hugo Strange had been tossed around a lot, but it appears the villain of this flick will be Bane, played by Tom Hardy.
Again, I approve. Bane showed up in the dreadful Batman and Robin, but he was more poorly underused than Venom was in Spider-Man 3. Bane is supposed to be a highly intelligent foe, given ridiculous strength and muscles because of a drug pumped into his system called...venom. In Batman and Robin, Bane was a full-on retard lackey of Poison Ivy who said almost nothing, and had like 3 minutes of screen time in total.
I have no doubt that Christopher Nolan's interpretation of the character will be a badass, and will prove a worthy foe for Batman.
