…But which role will he play?

Joseph Gordon Levitt (seen right), who’s simply become one of his generation’s finest actors in the last five years or so, is said to be in talks to star in Chris Nolan’s THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. Of course, the two are not strangers, having worked together on last year’s summer smash hit INCEPTION.

Word comes from Deadline, which did not specify what role Levitt will play in THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. We do know he’ll join his INCEPTION costar Tom Hardy (who will play Bane), as well as Anne Hathaway (Cat Woman). Of course, expect to see old hats like Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and Morgan Freeman.

As for Levitt, he’s currently filming LOOPER for Rian Johnson (whom we worked on with BRICK). He has HESHER and ELEKTRA LUXX out this year, as well as LIVE WITH IT and PREMIUM RUSH in post-production. Dude knows how to keep busy!

But really, let’s open this sucker up to speculation. Who do you think Levitt will portray in THE DARK KNIGHT RISES? Who should he play? Think his role will be minor or major?
