8. Juno Temple Turns Up, Sluts About & Disappears Entirely
If her biographical details weren't so easily accessible online, you might be forgiven for thinking there were two Juno Temples: the first being the fine actress who made big, brief waves in Atonement and Notes On A Scandal, and who smartly went on to play important roles in Mr Nobody, Killer Joe and Lovelace to great success, via an odd, but entertaining stint in Kaboom! The other Juno must then be the young actress who has made Year One, The Three Musketeers and two St. Trinian's movies, as well as seeing the majority of what looked like it was supposed to be an important role cut out of The Dark Knight Rises. Temple's character Jen was hotly debated before the film's release, which rumours suggesting a possible reference to Harley Quinn, and others rightly suggesting she would be an anchor for Anne Hathaway's Selina Kyle, who might add a humanity to Kyle's thievery, making her the new, sexier Robin Hood. Her appearances also seem to suggest that was the initial intention, given the unexpressed (and possibly homosexual) relationship between Jen and Selina, which is then immediately dropped and swept under the nearest carpet as soon as Selina starts to hang out with Batman a bit more. Temple's delivery of what remains of the character is terrible: she is basically the stereotypical drugged up girl in the stairwell, without any real impact on the narrative thanks to sloppy scripting, and a completely unexplored backstory that fails to establish why Selina would be seen dead with her.
