As a dedicated fan of DC comics and movies, I have had the pleasure of witnessing some truly iconic characters come to life on screen. One such character that has left a profound impact on me is Harvey Dent, also known as Two-Face.


DC fans have been wowed by Joaquin Phoenix’s performance in “Joker,” which came out in 2019. They’re about to be thrilled all over again as the next installment in the series is almost here. There’s a lot of buzz surrounding this film, and now, in the latest teaser for “Joker: Folie à Deux,” we get an exciting glimpse of a familiar face – Harvey Dent makes an appearance.

To know who exactly this character from the comics is, keep on reading.

Who is Harvey Dent aka Two-Face?

In the bustling heart of Gotham City, where lawlessness reigns supreme, I’m the one who’s been keeping you safe. But it’s not just me – there was once another hero by my side: Harvey Dent, a former District Attorney. However, his life took an unfortunate turn. One fateful day, he encountered a horrific event that left him disfigured and shattered his mental peace.

During a trial I attended as an attorney, I, Harvey Dent, was unexpectedly assaulted. Following that harrowing experience, I underwent a chilling transformation into the monstrous figure known as Two-Face. I then plunged headlong into a life of crime, becoming one of Gotham City’s most infamous villains.

From my perspective as an avid fan, Harvey Dent, or better known as Two-Face, relishes in the unpredictability of deciding his victims’ fates. His obsession lies in the balance between good and evil, fortune and misfortune, and ultimately, the whims of fate.

The wicked character in Gotham City’s underworld is frequently portrayed as having a personal set of principles or ethics, contrasting them from other lawless criminals.

His most recognized feat involves tossing a two-headed coin to determine how he reacts towards his target.

Bob Kane and Bill Finger are the creators behind the introduction of this character in Detective Comics issue 66.

In the final scenes of The Dark Knight, Chris Nolan’s movie production, Aaron Eckhart portrayed the character.

Joker: Folie à Deux teases Harvey Dent

Fans couldn’t contain their excitement after the new Joker: Folie à Deux trailer was released, with many taking to social media to express their enthusiasm through excited screams. The trailer offered a glimpse into Arthur Fleck’s life as portrayed by the accomplished Joaquin Phoenix. However, it was a subtle detail in the closed captions that truly piqued the fans’ interest.

In the scene, Joker is discovered hiding inside a van resembling a police vehicle, which is equipped with grilles for concealment. However, the person driving this unseen van remains hidden from view.

Despite what the man says on screen, the subtitles reveal that he is Harvey Dent, stating “People think Arthur Fleck is some sort of martyr.”

In 2023, some behind-the-scenes photos emerged, featuring the character’s appearance and the presence of Joker’s supporters waving banners with messages like “Free Joker” and “Dent Is A Clown”. There are rumors that Harry Lawtey could be taking on the part of Harvey Dent.

What version of Harvey Dent will we see in the movie only the release will tell.

Joker: Folie à Deux will be released in theaters on October 4, 2024.
