Debunking all sorts of rumors about the next Batman Movie!
This is from Yahoo's entertainment news. Basically, what this boils down to is we really don't know ANYTHING about the next Batman movie (IF it happens), and we should NEVER believe anything from the Sun. I might be alone, but I still think "Hush" would be a great villain for Nolan's Bat-Universe. Enjoy the article!
1. The Fact Check - Debunking Batman Rumors
Megan Fox is not going to be Catwoman. Let's get that out of the way right now. When E! Online asked Fox's publicist if she really had been cast in the role, the reply was, "Megan is a huge fan of the Batman movies and of director Christopher Nolan but these discussions have not taken place."
So why were outlets worldwide reporting last week that Fox would be playing Batman's feline foe in the next movie? The original report was published in the "Gordon Smart's Bizarre" section of the British tabloid "The Sun" on the 26th. It popped up all across the Internet within hours, and it took less than a day for the studio to refute it. "It's rumor. It's not true," a source at Warner Bros. told Access Hollywood. "There is no script. There is no project to be cast in."
What's odd is this is not the first time a patently false claim about the next Batman movie was made by the same columnist. In December, Gordon Smart reported that Eddie Murphy had been cast as the Riddler and Shia LaBeouf would play Robin. That was quickly denied by Murphy's camp. Other reports said Phillip Seymour Hoffman would play the Penguin, but he told MTV, "No one has talked to me about it ever."
For fans of "The Dark Knight," it has been frustrating not to have any news about when, or if Batman will return to the screen. And for entertainment reporters, it's been just as frustrating not having any real information to present to an obviously interested public. Rest assured, when Christopher Nolan and the studio have something official to announce, they'll do it in the Hollywood trades and major newspapers, not some unreliable rag.
