Batman Baddie Confirmed

Casting rumours surrounding Christopher Nolan's much-anticipated Batman film , Batman: Intimidation were this morning proved to be true when Hollywood's bible Variety confirmed that Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman have both signed to the film. Neeson will be playing the film's baddie, Ra's al Ghul, a wealthy international terrorist, while Freeman will play, and we quote, 'Lucius Fox, a respected businessman and the Chief Executive Officer of billionaire Bruce Wayne's Wayne Enterprises based in Gotham City'. With Michael Caine, Katie Holmes, Christian Bale and Cillian Murphy already signed and sealed, it looks like Christopher Nolan is assembling quite a cast for his take on Batman. NOTE: Variety have since published a correction to this story. It seems that while Neeson will be joining Nolan's cast, he'll be taking the role of Ducard, mentor to Bruce Wayne.
