Edison Cast as “Robin” in ‘Batman 3′
Hong Kong’s Chen will be Batman’s partner in next sequel.
Edison Chen (é™³å† å¸Œ) has just been cast as ‘Robin’ in the 3rd Batman film, tentatively schedule for Summer 2010.
Director Chris Nolan was so impressed with Edison’s role in this year’s The Dark Knight (è™è ä¿ ï¼šé»‘å¤œä¹‹ç¥ž) – the sequel to 2005′s Batman Begins – that Nolan has re-written Edison’s scenes so that it seems logical that his character will become the Dark Knight’s junior partner in the third film, scheduled for 2 years from now.
So it looks like the sex scandal worked out in the end for Edison, bringing him the worldwide acclaim that all his Hong Kong movies couldn’t do. We have an exclusive audio interview with Edison about the role of ‘Robin’ below…
Happy April Fool’s Day!
We return you to ‘real’ news tomorrow!

quite a brilliant post actually. :)
I think honestly talking that the appearance of Robin in THE SHADOW OF THE BAT 2009 would b better if they told the story of how he tranforms in Robin. And I think that JOSH HARTNETT would be perfect to be a robin/nightwing in that movie.
If you see his job in the movie ¨ASESINO A SUELDO¨ (I don´t konw what´s it´s name in english) is per fect like a base to robin.
Because he feels so anger and he wants vengenace of the death of his parents (dick grayson) and there is batman to clam down and put him in the right way.
That movie ASESINO…. was so darker; and that requires this 3RD BATMAN FILM………….
This guy is gonna be Robin?
I can’t quite see it. I just,
i dunno. I kinda thought that
Robin would start out a little bit younger. Two or three years minnor,
ya know? Don’t get me wrong, this
guy would be fine. But I see him a
bit more like a Nightwing.
Drew – its a joke from April 1st.
I personally think an Asian Robin would be so awesome because that can be something new to the Nolan batman series. the story should start as that his name is unknown but first he’s adopted by the Soaring Grayson’s an American acrobatic family who work at a circus, because they saw a mysterious Chinese little boy with great acrobatics skills they saw at the orphanage. (his biological family were acrobatics but doesn’t really remember them) then the married couple thought having a son as an acrobatic could make them a whole family that they always wanted and could make them feel unique. which they adopted him and named him Richard Grayson since he a didn’t have a name. then he was a part of the Grayson family. (Chinese are known for astonishing acrobatics skills)
i think they should go old skool if u used to watch the old cartoon series well they should put in the relly young 13 year old robin he was selected a homless kidd off the street wene dick gryson left that would be cool but maby not work beacues the new series is DRAK
Since Edison Chen’s getting cast as Robin in Batman 3 he should wear Chris O’ Donnel’s robinsuit from 1995 Sam Worthington should wear Val Kilmer’s batsuit from 1995 after they release Batman 3 in 2011 they should make a Batman 4 which needs to be scheduled for a 2013 release and must have Ben Affleck taking on the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne and wearing George Clooney’s batsuit from 1997 Edison should then reprise his role of Robin/Dick Grayson and wear Chris O’ Donnel’s robinsuit from 1997 Isla Fisher should join the cast as Batgirl/Barbara Gordon Jr Jason Statham as Mr Freeze/Dr Victor Fries Vinnie Jones as Bane and Lauren Conrad as Poison Ivy.
Oh and Kelly Brooke should also join the cast as Mr Freze’s dying wife Norah Fries
Yeah sure go ahead I dare you to cast Edison Chen as Robin in Batman 3 (2011) Sam Worthington also has to replace Christian Bale as Batman/Bruce Wayne and wear a Batman armour that is an exact replica of Val Kilmer’s batsuit from 1995′s Batman Forever.
