It was officially announced yesterday that Inception stars Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be joining the cast of The Dark Knight Rises. It was no secret that Gordon-Levitt would have a role in The Dark Knight Rises, but the big hoopla was what role he would be playing...until now
Cotillard will appear as Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises board member eager to help a still-grieving Bruce Wayne resume his father's philanthropic endeavors for Gotham while Gordon-Levitt will play John Blake, a Gotham City beat cop assigned to special duty under the command of Commissioner Gordon.
Says director Christopher Nolan, "When you collaborate with people as talented as Marion and Joe, it comes as no surprise that you would want to repeat the experience. I immediately thought of them for the roles of Miranda and Blake, and I am looking forward to working with both of them again."
So far The Dark Knight Rises cast includes, Christian Bale stars as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle/Catwoman and Tom Hardy as Bane.
Just like the last two films, Nolan will direct the film from a screenplay he wrote with Jonathan Nolan, from a story by Christopher Nolan and David S. Goyer. Christopher Nolan will also produce the film with his longtime producing partner, Emma Thomas, and Charles Roven.
The Dark Knight Rises will be in theaters on July 20, 2012.
