so Guy Pearce was originally considered for Ra's Al Ghul?

Christopher's 2005 reboot of the Batman franchise that tells the origins of how Bruce Wayne became Batman.

Eh, Neeson seems like the better casting choice for the role.

Mortensen was a better choice.

I like Guy a lot and I wish Nolan used him some more and hopefully will in the future but this would be kind of funny to me. Guy isn't that young, older than Chris but he looks really young for his age. It would work but Liam was perfect casting.

He was first considered for Bruce Wayne/Batman role..
then, for Harvey Dent in the sequel.

In both cases, Nolan then chose another actor.

First choice for Ducard/Ra's Al Ghul was Viggo Mortensen, but he refused.

:o What? No :lol:
I cannot see him as Ra's
Maybe because Liam was the best choice IMO

Really? I could totally see Viggo as Ra's, in fact he might have been better than Liam (not that he was bad), but we'll never know.
