Gordon will probably played Dick Grayson. I think this will make Bruce Wayne/Batman character even more interesting with Dick Grayson also involved.
i love hathaway and (as a child) i loved catwoman. she will be way better than michelle pfeiffer. i still couldnt wrap my head around that one. i always imagined a young liz hurley or jessica alba playing catwoman. she should be a leggy hot brunette.
I could see this, I don't see Robin but Grayson makes a nice addition. The problem with a lot of these characters is that we are remembering the horrible movies as their backstory. Grayson is a great ally to Batman, strong, smart and a master of martial art. If Bane is going to be as strong a villain as expected, Batman may need some help and Grayson, not Robin, could be his ally in the fight.
There was a rumor a while back that said Hardy was going to be Hugo Strange in the movie however it was never confirmed by anyone. When the game trailer came out and Strange was the main villain, it was kind of assumed he would be the main villain in the movie as well.
It was an origin movie, and the movie progressed from when he was a boy to an adult. In the Dark Knight there was no need for it anymore, Nolan evolved his previous movie.
Robin Williams was being talked about as Hugo Strange (debunked) and that Strange was going to have a hand in creating/unleashing Bane on Batman. As far as "too many villains", Nolan has shown that he has a good mind for placing multiple adversaries in these films without making it so Batman has to defeat them all one by one. Besides, Catwoman shouldn't be a pure villain.
So you think Christian Bale look anything like the comic book version? What make you think they are going with the comic book version? Take a look at The Joker. I don't even think he's even playing Hugo Strange. I'm pretty sure JGL will be playing Dick Grayson even though Nolan say no to Robin. I can see a more complex movie with Dick Grayson added.
Old people are more expensive....it's much more cost efficient for the makeup department to just put wrinkles and an old coot chin strip beard on a young dude like JGL.
