More news comes from the Dark Knight Rises camp, this time we get to see the shortlist of actresses rumored to be trying out for roles in the upcoming blockbuster. Rumor is they are looking to cast two big roles for the film, a love interest and a villain.
/Film reports:
It seems like only minutes ago when we were talking about Eva Green and Naomi Watts being cast in The Dark Knight Rises. Oh, wait, it was. Hot on the heels of Collider’s initial report, The Hollywood Reporter has come to the plate with their own short list of actresses vying for the two female leads in Christopher Nolan‘s third Batman film and neither Green or Watts are on the list. Their list includes Keira Knightley, Anne Hathaway (who have both already been mentioned) Jessica Biel, Kate Mara, Charlotte Riley and Gemma Arterton. Reportedly, each one of these actresses has a scheduled test for the film in the next two weeks. Read more after the jump.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Arterton might have to remove herself from contention because she’s recently accepted the lead in Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, which will probably create a scheduling conflict. And while most of us are very familiar with the likes of Biel, Knightley and Hathaway, we might be less familiar with Kate Mara or especially Charlotte Riley. Mara is the sister of Rooney Mara (A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Social Network, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo remake) and had supporting roles in Iron Man 2, Shooter and most recently in 127 Hours. Riley is a British television actress who just happens to be married to Tom Hardy, who has already been cast in the film.
We'll hear more about all of these casting rumors in the next few weeks I'm sure, but what do you think? Which female leads do you think will make an appearance in TDKR?
