Aaron Edward Eckhart (born March 12, 1968) is an American actor and producer. Born in Cupertino, California, Eckhart moved to the United Kingdom at early age, when his father relocated the family. Several years later, he began his acting career by performing in school plays, before moving to Australia for his high school senior year. He left high school without graduating, but earned a diploma through a professional education course, and graduated from Brigham Young University (BYU) in 1994 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in film. For much of the mid-1990s, he lived in New York City as a struggling, unemployed actor. As an undergraduate at BYU, Eckhart met director and writer Neil LaBute, who cast him in several of his own original plays. Five years later Eckhart made a debut as an unctuous, sociopathic ladies' man in LaBute's black comedy film In the Company of Men (1997). Under LaBute's guidance he worked in the director's films Your Friends & Neighbors (1998), Nurse Betty (2000), and Possession (2002). Eckhart gained wide recognition as George in Steven Soderbergh's critically acclaimed film Erin Brockovich (2000), and, in 2006, he received a Golden Globe nomination for his portrayal of Nick Naylor in Thank You for Smoking. He gained further mainstream breakout in 2008 when he starred in the blockbuster Batman film The Dark Knight as District Attorney Harvey Dent / Two-Face. Eckhart's other key roles include The Pledge (2001), The Core (2003), Paycheck (2003), Rabbit Hole (2010), Battle: Los Angeles (2011), Olympus Has Fallen (2013) and its sequel London Has Fallen (2016), I, Frankenstein (2014), Sully (2016), Midway (2019) and Line Of Duty (2019).

for Harvey Dent in Batman: Penguin's Chaos
Suggested by matthewfenner
Two weeks before the rise of the Joker, Gotham is already rotting from within. After the fall of Carmine Falcone, Oswald Cobblepot — known in the city’s underworld as The Penguin — has seized control of Gotham’s criminal empire, running drugs, weapons, and bodies through the Iceberg Lounge under the guise of legitimate business. When a string of brutal murders tied to Cobblepot’s operation surfaces, Batman dives deep into the seedy underbelly of Gotham, uncovering a new wave of organized crime built on political blackmail and blood-soaked corruption. As Bruce pushes himself further into the shadows, his war on crime becomes more ruthless, and the line between justice and vengeance begins to blur. In the midst of this descent, Gordon struggles to maintain order as the GCPD buckles under mob control, and Harvey Dent’s crusade for justice puts him directly in Penguin’s crosshairs. With every lead Batman chases, Cobblepot tightens his icy grip on Gotham’s elite, turning the city into a playground of fear and greed. Batman: Penguin's Chaos is a raw, violent descent into Gotham’s criminal heart — a story of power, paranoia, and moral decay that sets the stage for the chaos soon to come. By the time the Joker arrives, Gotham is already bleeding… and Batman is already on the edge.
