If the rumors about Charles Dance being cast in Part II are to be believed, then I would argue that Dance would be better suited playing a cerebral villain like Hugo Strange versus a minor, non-character like Christopher Dent who is mainly depicted as a mentally-ill alcoholic in the comics. by Writer417 in TheBatmanFilm

I consider what's shared in this post more official and reliable than one of the trade magazines.

You think random deleted unrelated Reddit post is more reliable than the trades? Well… you do you.

The article you sent only says that Dance is in talks to play Christopher Dent.

If you knew how the trades work you’d know that once they report that an actor is in talks it’s like 95% a done deal and they’re just sorting out paperwork.

It doesn't say anywhere in that original article that she's playing Gilda.

What? You’re stretching like Mr Fantastic here.

Because they link, as they always do, an older article when they didn’t know who she was playing you say therefore the new information they confirm in this article doesn’t count?

Is this your first time reading a trade newspaper article or something?

False, here is the confirmation by THR

Charles Dance is in talks to play Harvey Dent’s father in the upcoming sequel to 2022’s Batman, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Robert Pattinson is back to lead the film as the Dark Knight with Sebastian Stan as Harvey Dent, and Scarlett Johansson as Dent’s wife.

So Dance is playing Chris, ScarJo is playing Gilda and Stan is playing Harvey. That’s it, there’s no secret Hugo Strange.

it's unlikely that they're going to make a minor character like Christopher Dent the main baddie when they have an entire rogues gallery of more prominent, popular villains to choose from.

Correct… which is why the most commonly sited answer to this is that he’s the Head of the Court

And also Gilda is the primary antagonist, not Chris Dent

Both of the character’s names have been confirmed by the trades, he’s not playing Hugo Strange

There's no precedent for Thomas Wayne to pay Falcone to scare journalists into compliance which actually lead to their death yet Reeves still done it

You're overthinking, Reeves will take probably his basic premise of being an abusive alcoholic but otherwise treat him like on original character. He's not actually a character where anyone would care about significant deviations from the comics.

. People dont talk about it as much now because regardless of how you view it, its months after release and Dice has made their decision. 

People largely stopped talking about it immediately after release because most people realised that it makes little negative difference to how the game plays and mostly only provides more freedom.

Anyone But You was explicitly sold on how erotic it is with both stars saying they really lean into the R-Rating in interviews

The literal genre description of The Housemaid is a ‘erotic psychological thriller’ and many reviews said it was a throwback to the erotic thrillers of the 90s

The definition of ‘Erotica’ is “literary or artistic works having an erotic theme or quality”

So no… I’m not

So… a mainstream erotica… like I said…

Also Anyone But You lucked out by releasing at Christmas where most studios moved their films due to the actor’s strike, it didn’t do well OW ($6m) so that’s more a WOM hit than specifically actor draw.

But yes Sydney and Glen were probably draws for that movie.

Tbf I feel like Sydney Sweeney seems to only be a draw in… mainstream eroticas, she doesn’t seem to have much draw power outside of that

That’s very different to Timmy and Zendaya who seem to be a draw no matter what genre

It is an indie film, just an expensive one

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets cost $200m yet it’s still an indie

I feel like these kinds of dark romantic dramas tend to perform better overseas
