"OFFICIAL" First Look: Heath Ledger as "The Joker"

Ok - alot of you yelled "FAKE!" when the last "leaked" photo of Heath Ledger as "The Joker" in the next Batman film was found online. Well - no more. Warner Bros. has released an "Official" First Look on their website. Above is the photo they released. Pretty scary stuff. It's definitely looks like this Joker is going to be a bit different that the Jack Nicholson version we got back in 1989.

And I'm glad. This feels right for the new Batman franchise. And I am beginning to feel that Ledger could be the perfect choice for this new direction!

Warner Bros. also released a little more promotional media for the upcoming "The Dark Knight" movie. Aaron Eckhart plays Gotham D.A. - Harvey Dent. Who ends up being the villain Two-Face. Not sure if it happens in this film or the next - but either way - Harvey Dent is definitely in the next film if the below photo is any indication. And if Dent is there - Two-Face can't be far behind.

Definitely looking forward to this one! "The Dark Knight" gets a worldwide release in 2008.
