Eckhart on Two-Face

Aaron Eckhart Aaron Eckhart recently spoke to Wizard Magazine about his role as Harvey Dent aka Two-Face in the upcoming THE DARK KNIGHT and was surprisingly open about the character. Check it:


Have you filmed a lot of scenes in makeup?

I have done scenes as Harvey Two-Face. It’s interesting. I won’t tell you exactly what we’re going for, but I think that I can say that it will use all of today’s technology to create this character. He’s going to be interesting, and I think that’s what makes this character important in the movie—you get to see him as he was before, as in the comic books. Harvey is a very good guy in the comic books. He’s judicious. He cares. He’s passionate about what he loves and then he turns into this character. So you will see that in this film.

Obviously, Two-Face is a split personality. How did you approach playing two personalities?

I just talk to my other selves. [Laughs] I think that it’s interesting about human behavior that under certain circumstances, in one minute you can believe in one thing, and then the world can change and you believe in another thing. I think that Harvey is not such a bad person. He does bad things. I [just] think that it’s important that you know that he didn’t become Harvey Two-Face in a vacuum.
