"Bat" Bits: "Dark Knight" Casting, Justice League, and ... Spawn?

by | July 6, 2007 | Comments

Man oh man, "The Dark Knight" just keeps sounding cooler and cooler — new castmembers, set reports, a casting call and a potential cross-over flick?

First off we learn that Michael Jai White ("Spawn") has been cast as a mobster (one of many) in "The Dark Knight."

Also, IGN Movies has some reports from the Chicago set, but there’s some minor spoilers involved. Click here for some minor plot nuggets.

Additionally, if you happen to be a Chicago cop, you just might be able to snag a role as an extra in "The Dark Knight." Cool! (Click here for details on that.)

And when asked about the possibility of appearing in a "Justice League" movie (somewhere down the line), "Batman" actor Christian Bale had this to say: "It’s like I was saying to Chris [Nolan] — I’ll be probably doing this in dinner theater somewhere in my 50s, so I won’t knock it. Because who knows where I’ll end up?"

Hey, don’t knock it, Chris. Everybody loves Adam West these days!
