Gyllenhaal taking Holmes' place in 'Batman' sequel

LOS ANGELES, California (Hollywood Reporter) -- Maggie Gyllenhaal is in final negotiations to replace Katie Holmes in "The Dark Knight," the sequel to "Batman Begins."

Gyllenhaal would play D.A. Rachel Dawes, the love interest to Bruce Wayne/Batman (Christian Bale). Representatives for Holmes said she was unable to reprise her role because of scheduling conflicts.

Gyllenhaal, who earned critical raves for her starring turn in the indie "Sherrybaby," was last seen in "Stranger Than Fiction" and "World Trade Center." She also lent her voice to the Oscar-nominated animated feature "Monster House."

"I'm extremely excited to work with an actress of Maggie's caliber, and she's a great addition to the cast as we continue our story," said "Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan.

Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Gary Oldman will return from the first film. Heath Ledger has joined the cast as the Joker, while Aaron Eckhart will play D.A. Harvey Dent, also known as the villainous Two-Face.

that part in the departed after his first bullet wound when he is sitting up smiling in the bucket of the bulldozer with blood running down his chin gave me flashbacks.

OP, TTI(almost)WWP!

lame... i hate whenever they replace people in series...

i was kinda pissed the real dumbledore died and had to replace him with this new, not-as-good dumbledore...

I wanted to take a blowtorch to Holmes's face to get that stupid twisted-smile-thing she does off of it. Seriously Katie, work on having more than one facial expression.

Methinks Tom has a tight leash on this chick now.

I doubt the kids who the movie is made for care about who plays Dumbledore.

 

[KayKay]

Gyllenhaal is a bit weird looking for me... not to say that she's ugly.
