He is a good actor and would make for a more true to the character Bane. While Hardy would make a perfect Hugo Strange.....

Honestly Hardy could play whoever the hell he wants lol that guy has range!

Sunjata will probably play someone from Banes past. Either his father or someone from the prison Bane was raised in. It only makes sense.

Will you all stop being Idiots
Every actor that signs on does not have to be a fricking villain. There are so many other people that he could play (a cop, some type of lawyer ect...)

@jazzman
Probably because crispus allen is black not latino. Who knows who this person is playing, he might just be part of the crime family, assassin, or cop. He could be anyone.

I have to agree, Anthony Michael did not have a huge part and was int he film. This guy could just be a reporter or officer
