Per DEADLINE, Charles Dance is joining the cast of THE BATMAN PART II.

So there you go, unreasonably impatient ones…NEWS!

(The fact that people actually made a big deal and freaked out about THE BATMAN PART II not being part of Warner Bros.’ sizzle reel at CinemaCon, should be mindblowing…but sadly, it’s not. Did anyone stop and think that 1) the film is 18 months away from release and 2) not a single frame of film has been shot?! Whatever.)

The trade speculates that Mr. Dance will portray Christopher Dent, the father of Harvey Dent (Sebastian Stan).  I won’t speculate because this is a name that I had not heard previously (as I had with the Liam Neeson scuttlebutt and another individual).  So we shall see.

OPINION | THE BATMAN PART II: The Only Crisis Here is Fan Overreaction

I’m not familiar with the actor (apparently he was big in GAME OF THRONES), which I’ve never watched.  But I do know him from Guillermo del Toro’s FRANKENSTEIN.

Bill "Jett" Ramey
Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
