JGL in Batman 3

I was holding off to put this in here until it was 100 percent confirmed. It now is.

One of my favorite actors for awhile has been Joseph Gordon-Levitt. From his first real role in Angels in the Outfield, I thought he was awesome. 3rd Rock from the Sun was probably his big break, and a few years later, 10 Things I Hate About You (rip Heath) really brought him mainstream. Films like Brick, 500 Days of Summer, and Inception have made him bigger and bigger and he is finally becoming a very well known name.

His next role is going to be Huge. Capital H. He has just been confirmed to re-team with Christopher Nolan in Nolan's final chapter of his Batman trilogy, The Dark Knight Rises. He will be playing Alberto Falcone, the son of mafia boss Carmine Falcone, who was played by Tom Wilkinson in Batman Begins.



Alberto Falcone, aka The Holiday Killer, is a serial killer who goes on a murderous rampage every holiday, earning him his name. JGL joins Anne Hathaway who will play Catwoman and Tom Hardy (who was the perfect comic relief in Inception) as Bane, who were all just recently cast in this epic finale.

July 20, 2012 is far too far away.

P.S. some minor rumors have placed Marion Cotillard in talks for a role as well. GOD DAMN!
