Matthew McConaughey Being Eyed For Two-Face

In Matt Reeves’ The Batman, the Caped Crusader looks to be coming back in style. Reeves is an excellent director and Robert Pattinson should make for a great Dark Knight. But there’s one thing that’s giving me and many fans pause: the number of villains in the movie.

We’ve got Paul Dano confirmed as the Riddler, Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman and we’re waiting to hear who’s being cast as the Penguin (we’ve also had word that Poison Ivy, Firefly and Scarecrow are planned to appear, too). Now, you can add another member of the rogues gallery onto the pile, as we’re learning that Warner Bros. are eyeing Matthew McConaughey for Two-Face/Harvey Dent. That’s according to a source.

And though McConaughey is said to be just one name on the wishlist, he would indeed make an excellent Two-Face. You don’t have to look far into his filmography to find a range of characters bristling with the rage and inner conflict needed to make the villain work. Despite this, I would much rather see a McConaughey Two-Face be given his own film than have to jockey for space with an ever-growing collection of baddies.
