Hugh Jackman Is Certainly Not Harvey Dent

For those of you playing along at home, you can take out your giant "cast rumors" book and flip open to the "Harvey Dent, AKA Two-Face" page. Scan down the list past Ryan Phillippe, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Liev Schreiber until you get to Hugh Jackman. Then take out a writing utensil (preferably a pencil, because those suckers have erasers for when this news undoubtably changes in the rumor mill sometime next week) and cross Jackman's name right out. That's right, good old fan favorite Hugh Jackman, who finds his name attached to literally every superhero movie (did you hear the one about Jackman as Wonder Woman?), has officially denied any involvement with Chris Nolan's Dark Knight flick: "I think because I'd worked with Chris Nolan. I think it was just fanboy stuff." This leaves us with two rumor holes to fill, fans. First, we can expect a new nomination to join the ranks of Two-Face hopefuls. After that, it'll be a race to see what superhero flick can link Jackman to itself next. The way he's going, it'll probably be a movie that doesn't even exist.

It wouldn't have made sense for Jackman to be cast as another superhero. Everyone knows him as Wolverine- it's what put him on the map. For him to suddenly become Two-Face would just be kind of confusing, not to mention that he'd be switching from Marvel to DC.
