RUMOR: Robin Williams To Play Hugo Strange In The Dark Knight Rises?

Bane and Catwoman may have been made an official part of the upcoming movie, but the rumors keep on coming, with Robin Williams now apparently in the running to play Hugo Strange...

Batman-News have pointed out the following post made by BATMAN-ON-FILM's Jett. Before you completely dismiss this though, it's interesting to read what the site point out about the source of this intriguing bit of information.



The tweet above from BOF’s Jett peaked my interest this morning. Jett has mentioned Robin Williams before on his BOF message board and Facebook page… could he be onto something? The last time Jett dropped hints about possible The Dark Knight Rises villains was when he kept mentioning Bane on his message board, and we know how that turned out.




Quite the tease, huh? As you may already know, Robin Williams very nearly played both The Joker and Riddler before Christopher Nolan took over the franchise back in 2005. Since then, he's often mentioned that he'd like a role in the lastest series of movies and Hugo Strange is also a character that's been linked to The Dark Knight Rises in recent months. However, Warner Bros have not announced this casting news along with Tom Hardy and Anne Hathaway? Be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place!

The Dark Knight Rises is set to be released on July 20, 2012!
