2012 Claims Another Victim!!

Merrick here...
This tidbit actually slipped through the cracks a week or two ago, but given THE DARK KNIGHT's immediate descent into, we thought this was still quite relevant. Chin Han has been cast in Roland Emmerich's 2012. You might not know this guy's name, and you may not even recognize his face - although he's an accomplished actor/director who has appeared in many projects overseas. THE DARK KNIGHT is one of his first feature films, and is easily his highest profile role to date. He plays a corporate badass named "Lau", a dude so important that Batman/Bruce has to...ahhh, see for yourself. In 2012, Chin Han will play "Lin Pang", a character "indispensible in the fight to save a group of citizens from various natural disasters" (says a recent release about the his appearance in the film). While there's nothing particularly extraordinary about the role itself, Chin Han's DARK KNIGHT appearance is pretty memorable. Something tells me we'll be seeing much more from him in the future.
