Marion Cotillard & Joseph Gordon-Levitt's 'Dark Knight' Characters Revealed!

It’s official – Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt have joined the cast of The Dark Knight Rises, Warner Bros. has announced.

Earlier this year, the two actors were reported to have landed roles in the Christopher Nolan-directed flick, though their characters were unknown.

Now we know who they’ll be playing!

Joseph will take on the role of John Blake, “a Gotham City cop who is given a special assignment under the command of Commissioner Gordon,” according to The Wrap.

Meanwhile, Marion “will play Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises board member who wants to help Bruce Wayne, who’s still grieving, resume his father’s philanthropic endeavors in the city.”

Christian Bale reprises his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Anne Hathaway will play Catwoman, and Tom Hardy will play Bane.

This is like half of the main Inception cast. Sounds like it will be a good film.

Good cast, but i’m still puzzled as to why anne hathaway was cast as catwoman.

She should have been Cat woman… at least it would have been believable.. Anne as cat woman? No way.

I would have liked to see Joseph as a villain, and someone else as catwoman

Love Marion Cotillard, very attractive and sexy. French perfection doesn’t get much purer than her.

I read they’re even recasting the revolving room used in the gravity-defying hotel scenes from Inception.

Woooo! The Dark Knight Rises is going to be huge! I’ll be going on opening night with all my girls! Here come the girls! (Girls, Girls, Girls, Girls) OH YEAH BABY!!! :)

Wohooo!! Let me tell you, this will be an Anne Hathaway you’ve never seen, and she’s going to knock everyone’s socks off in The Dark Knight Rises! You are going to be so killed by her performance. I can’t tell you how good she is going to be as a strong, independent, sexy Catwoman. Oh, she is going to be so good in this. It’s unbelievable the performance she is going to give. It’s amazing. Hahah.. freakin’ fantastic, can’t wait! Man! I feel like a woman!
