Let’s admit it: The only people in this whole wide world who thought Katie Holmes wasn’t totally awful in “Batman Begins” was Katie Holmes, fans of Katie Holmes, or has last names that are Holmes or Cruise. Well guess what, Katie Holmes-in-Batman-Begins-haters, you just might get some relief, because here’s news that Holmes will not be in the “Batman Begins” sequel, titled “The Dark Knight”. According to Latino Review, Holmes’ character, Rachel Dawes, returns in the sequel, but Holmes has been dropped, and a search is now on for her replacement! Oh my oh my oh my. Methinks Tom Cruise’s Oprah couch hopping had something to do with it, don’t you?

Also, another “The Dark Knight” casting info of note concerns the character of Harvey Dent:

It’s official (no surprise), HARVEY DENT is in THE DARK KNIGHT. Matt Damon passed on the role. The filmmakers met Josh Lucas and there is an interest in Jamie Foxx and Ed Norton. I’m pretty sure there are other actors that I’m not aware of up for the Harvey Dent role.


“Thanks for costing me a role in the ‘Batman Begins’ sequel, Tom, you freakazoid.”
