Linus Roache is most certainly back seeing as how there may be some flashbacks showing Thomas Waynes' ties to 'Ambiguous Mob
Boss,' and a scene showing the relationship The Waynes' had with the late parents of 'The heir.'"
"The Joker will be the central villain, although he isn't directly connected to the other 'villain plots.'"
"The other major villain, 'The heir,' will be more a villain to Wayne himself than Batman - causing a rather interesting
sitiuation where Bruce will find all his identities under assult."
Loeb and Flass will return. The latter is no longer a member of the GPD.
"In light of Nolan's ambiguous comment about Robin. I know for a fact that currently, Robin is NOT in the mix."
Let me clarify what I said about The Joker's apperence. As far as his physical apperence goes, it seems pretty faitful to the
comics - although its' never really explained why he will look the way he does. So no make up or permanent smiles on his
face. As far as his costume, by 'exact translation' I mean the kind of translation that has been seen in 'The Animated Series
or Burton's 'Batman.' I didn't say that we would never see the Joker in purple at some point."

News Update! - October 15, 2005
This is from batman-on-film.com
Nolan is signed for two more Bat-films and the sequel has been given the greenlight. The very first stages of pre-production
have started. No official annoucement yet.
Filming may begin in the Spring of '07.
"Now as far as casting goes Paul Bettany is a serious contender for The Joker, but so is this Lachy Hulme
fellow. From what I heard Nolan was the one who first expressed interest in Hulme."
Nolan may work on the sequel as a side project while filming THE PRESTIGE.
Editor's Note: Please take everything in the above article with a gain of salt, it's all just rumors at this point.
