If Heath Ledger never died. This is what Nolan originally had planned for his Batman Franchise. So I am making a fan cast post for the series originally was going to be 5 Films. So in this film “Shadow Of The Bat” it was supposed to take place 8 years later after The Dark Knight and the girl who Gordon’s Wife was holding on to as well as the son was apparently according to Nolan was supposed to be 10 year old Barbara Gordon at the time so now 8 years later she is working for the GPD and she eventually would have worked for Batman and The Joker would have shot her and made her handicapped like in the killing joke but with a Nolan twist obviously and Harvey Dent would be alive from The Dark Knight and in this movie he would have became two face by an intense court scene where the joker is in court and Harvey dent is there to “bring him down” and the joker had something planned unexpectedly and something like Joker acid on Dents face and body something like that and he escaped with his goons killing everyone in the court house and kidnapping Harvey. So I’m pretty sure that the ending of two face in The Dark Knight would have ended in this film but with more two face. And not only does joker throw acid I think he exploded the court and that’s what burnt his body but also what I do remember as well is that all of the mind games joker did to dent after becoming two face were supposed to be in this film as well even more apparently.
