And we have a new Batman - Quite a surprise too...

[Faceman]

Christian Bale, of American Psycho fame, has been cast as the Caped Crusader for the next installment which is scheduled to start filming in Feb. The movie is going to be directed by Christopher Nolan, of memento fame. It was thought that since he was directing the movie, Guy Pierce has a shot of being batman, but thank god he didn't get the part. I just don't see him as a batman type. Bale has all the look of a Bruce Wayne type, let's just hope he can don the cape successfully and let's pray he has a decent script to work with. No word yet on the baddie, but the buzz is it will be Scarecrow.
