Acteur Rutger Hauer is binnenkort te zien in twee zeer grote producties: als Richard Earle in Christopher Nolans Batman Begins en als Cardinal Patrick Henry Roark in Robert Rodriguez'/Frank Millers Sin City.

[eng]"Christopher Nolan has totally reinvented the Batman story. This is more human. It's more character-driven. It's closer to the skin. That doesn't mean it's not a big fiction story with quite a bit of effects going on.

[In Sin City, I play] a kind of master of the absurd, a cardinal who is beyond wicked. This movie is so damn interesting and daring. And you know Robert Rodriguez resigned from the Directors Guild when they wouldn't allow him to have Frank Miller co-direct it with him. It had to be painful. For that, my chapeau goes off to him."[/eng]

Sin City is vanaf 2 juni in Nederland te zien, Batman Begins vanaf 23 juni.
