Joe will be playing John Blake in The Dark Knight Rises and his Inception costar, Marion Cotillard has been officially confirmed for the movie as well who will be playing Miranda Tate.
Warner Bros confirmed today that Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt have joined the cast of The Dark Knight Rises, which is being billed as the “conclusion of the Dark Knight legend,” meaning the end of Christopher Nolan’s run on the Batman movies.
The two have been in various stages of negotiations for months, with much speculation on who the two are playing.The studio said Cotillard will play as Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises board member eager to help a still-grieving Bruce Wayne 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.
Both worked with Nolan on Inception.
“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 a statement.
The Dark Knight Rises is slated for release on July 20, 2012.
