==Trivia==
# While filming the chase scene with the Joker and the SWAT vans, one of only four IMAX cameras in the world at that time was destroyed.
# This is the first Batman movie where Batman operates outside of Gotham.
# Aaron Eckhart says he modeled his performance in part after Robert F. Kennedy, both in terms of his initially polished, dashing appearance and his preoccupation with revenge.
# Bob Hoskins and James Gandolfini auditioned for the part of Sal Maroni, a part that went to Eric Roberts.
# Heath Ledger died on January 22, 2008 following a drug overdose although he had already completed his filming prior to his death, his posthumous Best Actor in a Supporting Role Oscar win, marks the first time an Academy Award has been awarded, in a major category, to a comic book movie.
# Before filming the interrogation scene. Heath Ledger told Christian Bale to hit him as hard as if Batman was really hitting the Joker.
# In Sir Michael Caine's opinion, Heath Ledger beat the odds and topped Jack Nicholson's Joker from Batman (1989): "Jack was like a clown figure, benign but wicked, maybe a killer old uncle. He could be funny and make you laugh. Heath's gone in a completely different direction to Jack, he's like a really scary psychopath. He's a lovely guy and his Joker is going to be a hell of a revelation in this picture." Caine bases this belief on a scene where the Joker pays a visit to Bruce Wayne's penthouse. He'd never met Ledger before, so when Ledger arrived and performed he gave Caine such a fright, he forgot his lines.
