Over at ReelzChannel, the rumors are flying:
According to the report, Theron is being sought for the role of Sarah Essen, a Gotham detective that strikes up an affair with then-Lieutenant Gordon in Frank Miller's 1987 Year One arc of the Batman comic book. Gary Oldman getting a love interest? We admit, it's intriguing.
Meanwhile, Farmiga and Thomas are reportedly up for the role of Julie Madison, who appeared in the comic books as Bruce Wayne's fiancee and earliest love interest. Again, intriguing.

Intriguing, to say the least. Not sure why Theron would sign on as a seemingly minor character, or that a "love interest" (two love interests, to be exact) is even that necessary. Really, all the best Batman stories lacked a love interest--The Killing Joke, The Dark Knight Returns, just to name a few. But I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have some romance break up the darkness.
