"I couldn't — there was a scheduling thing," Damon told MTV News. "I never spoke to Chris Nolan. I'm a big Chris Nolan fan, but I never spoke to him."
However, Damon doesn't think anyone could've played it better than the actor who eventually brought Harvey Dent to life on the big screen - Aaron Eckhart.
"Look, Aaron is a great actor, so the movie didn't suffer for it. Every now and then you get one and you can't do it."
What do you think? Would this have been a wise casting decision or a worse choice than when Arnold Schwarzenegger was cast as Mr. Freeze?
