Harvey Dent is Dead!!!

Perhaps we should have prefaced this headline with a warning - The Dark Knight spoiler ahead! - but, come on, who hasn't seen the movie at this point?

A few of those that have appear to be unsure if Harvey Dent is dead or not. Sure, he fell off a warehouse at the hands of Batman near the end of The Dark Knight. But there was no blood. Might this signal a return of Two-Face in the next film?

No.

The movie's script - written by Jonah and Christopher Nolan and actually included in The Dark Knight: Featuring Production Art and Full Shooting Script - reads: "Dent lies at the bottom of the hole, his neck broken. DEAD."

Can't be any more clear than that, can it?

Sorry, Two-Face lovers. Your hero is dead.

Valkyrie Relesae Date Moved Up

It's been a good week for Tom Cruise.

He's rumored to have signed to star in an upcoming comedy called Food Fight; he's receiving rave reviews for his cameo in Tropic Thunder; and now the release date for his next starring vehicle, Valkyrie, has been moved up.

After the political thrilled tested well with audiences, MGM Pictures and United Artists advance the release date for the Bryan Singer film.

Based on a true story, Cruise plays Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg in Valkyrie. He's a proud military man who serves Germany, while hoping to stop Hitler before he destroys Europe.

Rainn Wilson is Ready to Rock

In The Rocker, Rainn Wilson stars Rob "Fish" Fishman, the drummer in '80s hair metal band Vesuvius. He's unceremoniously booted as the group signs a big record deal, is out of the music world for 20 years - and then receives a second chance with his nephew's band.

Below, The Office star speaks with ComingSoon.Net about the role...

CS: How did you go about finding your inner drummer to play the character?
Wilson: The first thing I started was to take drum lessons and that totally opened my mind to who this guy was when you start drumming. I play a little guitar and I've played in orchestras and stuff like that so to me music was more of a cerebral exercise. But when you drum, you're just loud and you're just pounding away.

This drum coach I was working with was all about putting on a show behind the kit. When you get into the mindset of the drummer with the sweat and the pounding and the ugly face and the whole thing, Fish (the character) just became totally clear to me. He was about letting it all loose. It's an incredible workout and it's not even of your body but about concentration. It requires an amazing amount of focus.

CS: Did you ever have rock star dreams like Fish?
Wilson: I got to thankfully live through a little bit of a rocker nightmare which was my shortest lived high school band ever. I did two gigs with my band Collective Moss; I wish I still had that flyer. We played two gigs, one for a bunch of 11 year-olds who ended up stealing our patch chords in a church basement. Then our second gig was an audition for the Battle of the Bands, which we didn't get into. That's how bad we were; we were not even in the top six bands at New Trier High School (in Illinois). I was the singer.

Happy Birthday, Mila Kunis!

Today is also Halle Berry's birthday.

While we wish that Oscar winner the best, we wanted to single out a different birthday girl.

Mila Kunis, a rising cinematic star, turns 25. The former sitcom actress is expanding her career to the big screen. She was gorgeous in Judd Apatow's Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

Look for Mila Kunis in Max Payne this fall.

Whatever Works for Woody Allen and Larry David

Just as Woody Allen's latest movie, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, is set to his theaters, we have an update on the director's next movie.

The neurotic writer has penned a role for Curb Your Enthusiasm star Larry David.

According to JSOnline reports, the collaboration will be called Whatever Works. It's described as a “blackish comedy,” where David plays the love interest of 20-year-old Evan Rachel, who Allen commended for a “great” performance, despite being a young actress working with such well-known stars.

Whatever Works is set to be released in early 2009. Speaking on the film's star, Allen said:

“He's got a great, sarcastic, sour, wonderful, no nonsense sense of humor. I think I'm more illusory than him. He's a stronger personality. I'm more of a schlemiel, a dope. I would be the guy they would plant the microfilm on and I would never know it, and I would be out there wondering why people are shooting at me. Larry has a different quality. It was fun to write this for him."

As for the movie itself, the director said:

“There is sex in the movie. It's a comedy, a romantic comedy.”

Robert Downey Jr. Seriously Disses, Dismisses The Dark Knight

It's a super hero showdown!

In a new interview with Moviehole, Robert Downey Jr. went off on The Dark Knight. It's safe to say that the man behind the suit of this summer's other major comic book film, Iron Man, thinks the latest Batman chapter is overrated.

“My whole thing is that I saw The Dark Knight. I feel like I’m dumb because I feel like I don’t get how many things that are so smart. It’s like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and script writing and I’m like, ‘That’s not my idea of what I want to see in a movie.’

I loved [Christopher Noalan's] The Prestige, but didn’t understand The Dark Knight. Didn’t get it, still can’t tell you what happened in the movie, what happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy. I’m like, ‘I get it. This is so high brow and so fucking smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.’ You know what?

Fuck DC comics. That’s all I have to say and that’s where I’m really coming from.”

Robert Downey Jr., seen here in character in Tropic Thunder, holds nothing back in his critique of The Dark Knight.
