The Name Game

The IMDb has posted an unconfirmed rumor that Ryan Phillippe may be set to take the role of Harvey Dent/Two-Face in the upcoming "Batman Begins" sequel "The Dark Knight".

The report says Phillippe beat out contenders Liev Shreiber and Josh Lucas for the role of the once good guy district attorney who turns evil and disfigured during the course of the next film.

If this rumor turns out to be true...I can actually buy it. More so, in fact, than I can seeing Heath Ledger playing the Joker. At least Phillippe has played both the good guy and bad before--in a wider array of films.


It's Heads or Tails for Phillippe as Two-Face. It could go either way

In other Super-Hero Sequel news 20th Century Fox has officially confirmed that the title for the "Fantastic Four" sequel (hey, I liked the first one!) is "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" reports Dark Horizons.

In the sequel, the enigmatic, intergalactic herald, The Silver Surfer, comes to Earth to prepare it for destruction. As the Silver Surfer races around the globe wreaking havoc Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben must unravel the mystery of The Silver Surfer and confront the surprising return of their mortal enemy, Dr. Doom, before all hope is lost. The movie will be in theaters June 15th 2007.

I HATE that title!! Period!! What's next? Fantastic Four: The Fall Of Sub-Mariner? The FF should stand on their on as far as the title goes. And yes I know the plot follows a storyline from the comics...but geez non-comic readers will be goin "Huh?" What's a Silver Surfer?
