Ever since it was [1] announced that Aaron Eckhart had been cast as Harvey Dent in the Batman Begins sequel, The Dark Knight, fans have wondered if Two-Face would make an appearance. Eckhart confirmed the character’s appearance in passing while talking to MTV.com.

“Batman is a complex character, and Two-Face comes a little bit from the same world,” Eckhart said. “But [at the same time], he’s apart from it. I’m looking for the tension between the two, the similarities between the two. I want to find what’s similar to Batman, and then find what’s opposite to him.”

In the DC Comics, Harvey Dent is Gotham’s District Attorney who later becomes the villainous Two-Face. Tommy Lee Jones played the character in 1995’s horrendous Batman Forever.

The Dark Knight is set to hit theaters on July 18th 2008.
