Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard Roles in 'The Dark Knight Rises' Revealed

After much speculation, Warner Bros. announced today that 'Inception' co-stars Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt have joined the cast of Christopher Nolan's 'The Dark Knight Rises.'

Cotillard will play Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises board member eager to help a still-grieving Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) resume his father's philanthropic endeavors for Gotham.

Gordon-Levitt will play John Blake, a Gotham City beat cop assigned to special duty under the command of Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman).

"When you collaborate with people as talented as Marion and Joe, it comes as no surprise that you would want to repeat the experience. I immediately thought of them for the roles of Miranda and Blake, and I am looking forward to working with both of them again," Nolan said in an official release today.

Aside from Bale, the cast also includes Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle and (another 'Inception' alum) Tom Hardy as Bane.

'The Dark Knight Rises' is slated for release on July 20, 2012.

Looking forward to the next Batman film now! I was against Anne Hathaway as Catwoman because she is no Michelle Pfeiffer, but she was cast for a reason. She must have had a great screen test so I am looking forward to see how she plays Catwoman. I like Tom Hardy and I really like Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Marion Cotillard is a good actress. Yay, great casting!
