Stan's Stylist Drops Major Clues About Batman 2 Role
A celebrity stylist's Instagram posts featuring Harvey Dent imagery have fans convinced they've cracked the code on Sebastian Stan's mysterious casting in the upcoming Batman sequel.
When word leaked that Sebastian Stan entered negotiations for a secret part in The Batman 2, comic book enthusiasts immediately started guessing which character the Winter Soldier actor might portray. The mystery appears solved thanks to his longtime stylist's social media activity.
Michael Fisher, who has styled Stan for years, posted an Instagram story featuring a Batman 2 cast list that specifically mentioned "Sebastian Stan as Harvey Dent." Fisher didn't stop there. He shared two separate fan-made images showing Stan transformed into Two-Face, complete with the character's signature burned facial scarring.

One of these edited photos made its way to Twitter, where DC fans dissected every detail. Many believe Fisher's posts go beyond simple client support. The stylist could have celebrated Stan's casting without pinpointing a specific character, yet he chose to repeatedly connect his client to Gotham's fallen district attorney.
"Ok, that's actually solid," one fan responded to the leaked images. Another wrote, "If this turns out true, he feels like a perfect fit. This casting could add a whole new layer to Gotham."
Alternative Theories
Before Fisher's posts surfaced, fans speculated about other potential roles for Stan. Some suggested Hush, the masked villain who shares Bruce Wayne's childhood history. Others pitched Talon, the deadly assassin connected to The Court of Owls storyline.
Warner Bros hasn't confirmed Stan's actual character. The studio maintains tight secrecy around Matt Reeves' sequel, keeping plot details and casting specifics under wraps.
