Gotham Gab

The latest casting speculation over Christopher Nolan‘s The Dark Knight Rises has caused the Net fanboys to go a bit batty...


Jessica Biel, Anne Hathaway Keira Knightley, Kate Mara and Charlotte Riley (Easy Virtue) will all reportedly test for roles within the next two weeks says Heat Vision.

Meanwhile, Eva Green and Naomi Watts are said to be joining the sequel as the anti-hero/love Talia al Ghul and love interest Vicki Vale, respectively. (via Collider)

Gemma Arterton  was also said to be testing for a role, but her commitment to  Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters, effectively takes her out of the process.

The same reports claim the film will boast a new Batmobile, descibed as a sleeker version of the Tumbler destroyed in The Dark Knight, while the Batcave will get a more modern look.

No of this has been confirmed and shooting is still four months off with production slated to begin May 6th and will continue until heading into post production on November 28th.

Lastly Photos of Tom Hardy with a shaved head and slight bit of facial scruff have surfaced over at Worst Previews leading them to say he's set to play Hugo Strange - despite him having to shoot at least one film (The Wettest County in the World?) between now and the time 'Rises' starts production.
