As much asOppenheimerstarMatt Damonwould move heaven and earth for an opportunity to be in Christopher Nolan’s movie now,he rejected one of Nolan’s callsfor himto play Gotham supervillain, Harvey Dent. Notably, the actor has rejected a series of astounding and promising roles, including James Cameron’sAvatar(per/Film). But the loss ofThe Dark Knightrole, as the actor later cited in an interview withThe Playlist, was due to his commitment to another movie he was filming at the time.“Well, ‘Dark Knight’ was a small role that I was offered,”he told the outlet.
“It wasn’t Heath or Christian’s part … There was some other big movie, some big part that I was doing where I was like, ‘Well, I can’t play Harvey Dent, this is a relatively small role, but I am headlining this other thing.’ But you gotta be sanguine about it and go, ‘It all works out.’ At this point, I passed on the biggest payday in the history [of cinema] accidentally, so I could never do worse financially, I could never commit a worse financial error.”
