Serious post: Shortly after I published this tweet, someone reached out to say that De Niro was, in fact, offered the role... and passed. Drats!

The more I think about it... You know who'd be absolutely NUTS as Christopher Dent in BATMAN 2? I haven't heard anyone mention him, possibly b/c he's older than other candidates, but if we're talking about who could realistically have a 43-year-old son & thrive in a CRIME movie?
