A lot of people will tell you that Jon Hamm should play Batman and were this a different trilogy without an express agenda to cast a younger Batman in his earlier years, he'd be right up there as a candidate. But it's not, so he's not.

But there's absolutely still room for him in this world, and if he was to draw on Don Draper, we could end up with a brilliant new Harvey Dent. He might not be as clean-cut as Aaron Eckhart's version, but that might not be a bad thing and if he was to actually become Two Face, Draper's darker side could come out even more.

Hamm certainly has the charm and the presence to pull off Dent and there's just something about him that screams Gotham City.

So, who should play The Dark Knight himself? Well, not Jake Gyllenhaal...
