Two-Face confirmed for DARK KNIGHT (by Harvey Dent himself)


From aicn, In case there was any doubt, Aaron Eckhart confirms that you will not only see Harvey Dent as Two-Face in THE DARK KNIGHT, but that his arc will continue into the next BATMAN film. He also has some carefully chosen words about how they're bringing Two-Face to life...
Does Harvey get scarred in this movie or will we have to wait until the next one to see that?

Harvey Dent turns into Harvey Two-Face in this movie. So that answers your question better. [Laughs]

Have you filmed a lot of scenes in makeup?

I have done scenes as Harvey Two-Face. It’s interesting. I won’t tell you exactly what we’re going for, but I think that I can say that it will use all of today’s technology to create this character. He’s going to be interesting, and I think that’s what makes this character important in the movie—you get to see him as he was before, as in the comic books. Harvey is a very good guy in the comic books. He’s judicious. He cares. He’s passionate about what he loves and then he turns into this character. So you will see that in this film.

[JPX sez, the blurry picture of the Two Face action figure was secretly snapped at this year's Toy Fair]

It's so good that you see Two-Face in before and after modes. SO much more poignant than stupid Batman Forever, but we knew that, didn't we?

Batman has so few people who are on his side, and Two-Face is one of those who gets taken in the worst way. I've always liked the tragedy of that. Plus, he does that cool thing where he's got a room that's half nice, half disgusting to match his face.
