Warner Brothers THE DARK KNIGHT RISES In Talks With Joseph Gordon-Levitt: New Joker Or Maybe Hugo Strange?

One of the best young actors working, 29 year old Joseph Gordon-Levitt, is currently in talks to join the all-star cast of THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, according to Deadline. His recent work on INCEPTION with Christopher Nolan possibly led to this opportunity. With a few projects in post-production and yet to start on LOOPER and BREATHERS:A ZOMBIE’S LAMENT, word is he is going to be available for filming in May for the new installation of the caped crusader. As was previously announced, Anne Hathaway has been cast as Selina Kyle and Tom Hardy has been set to play Bane in Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. They will be starring alongside Christian Bale, who returns in the title role of Bruce Wayne/Batman. The film is slated for release on July 20, 2012.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has an amazing arsenal of work he started back in 1988 that would lend him to pretty much any character Nolan slips him into. But what role is he up for? What is your dream cast for him? WAMG is elated about this news, what about you? Let us know!
