Josh Pence to young Ra's Al Ghul In The Dark Knight Rises











Man I just cannot get away from comic book characters tonight.

If you're wondering how you missed Josh Pence in last year's The Social Network you're not alone. While Pence's body was in the 2010 hit his face was not. That was because Armie Hammer's chisled features were digitally copied over Pence's face to form the second Winkelvoss twin.

Thankfully, Pence will be getting a chance to sport his own mug in next summer's The Dark Knight Rises, as he is set to play the young Ra's Al Ghul, the main villain played by Liam Neeson in Batman Begins. According to "Heat Vision" the character will be shown in flashbacks 30 years prior to the events in TDKR. This of course fuels further speculation that Ra's daughter Talia Al Ghul will have a major role in the conclusion to Christopher Nolan's trilogy. Further speculation also has Oscar winner Marion Cotillard playing the role but nothing has been confirmed yet.

As the expression goes, just another turn of the screw in Nolan's Batman saga. Now if we could just get some plot details...
