Speaking of Batman movies, there weren’t a whole lot of fan boys up in arms about the switch from Katie Holmes to Maggie Gyllenhaal for the role of Bruce Wayne’s plucky love interest in The Dark Knight. Now, perhaps that’s because Gyllenhaal’s a more critically acclaimed, indie-friendly actress. But we suspect it’s because since marrying Tom Cruise, Holmes is widely assumed either to have been brainwashed by aliens or to have in fact become an alien herself. Something like that, anyway.
