Chris Nolan’s The Dark Knight seems to be gaining momentum with the breaking news that Eric Roberts has just signed up to play a criminal kingpin 𝓀in the sequel, slash prequel, slash re-generation of the iconic Batman franchi𝔍se.
The Best Of The Best star has seen his career roꦫcket thanks to lucrative roles in TV shows The L Word, and the popular US superhero𝕴 sitcom, Heroes. Now, it seems, he can add ‘annoying the caped crusader’ to his lengthy CV.
"I don't stop working. I'm a workaholic. I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm too overexposed to ever be a superstar, so I'm꧂ happy to be a working actor every day," the actor recently mused.
The Dark Knight, which is s🦄cheduled for a UK release in July 2008, is the next chapter in Nolan’s popular vision of the brooding bat caper.
It finds t✨he enigmatic Bruce Wayne pairing up with Commissioner Gordon and Harvey Dent, as they unite to protect Gotham City from a warped killer with a mouth like a bear trap and the wardrobe of Jonathan Ross.
