According to Latino Review – and they do seem to have some solid contacts at Warner Bros; remember who scooped the web on Brandon Routh playing Superman? – Katie Holmes will not be back in “The Dark Knight”, despite the fact that her character, Rachel Dawes, will appear in the film. I assume Holmes has opted not to reprise the role – or the producers have opted to save money and recast another actress – because the part she’ll play in the sequel is super-small. I’m talking ten-minutes or less. She’ll still be a pivotal part in the movie, but, well, let’s just say that it doesn’t much matter who plays her. It’ll only really affect the film’s accountant… who’ll probably have a few bucks left on the table because he hasn’t hired Holmes. I liked Holmes in "Batman Begins", I thought she fit the bill. I think It’ll be a minor injury to the film having a different actress play the part. Pity. So yep, they’re looking for another young brunette to play Dawes in the film.

I still have not seen the movie, but I heard she was the worst part of a good movie. I guess Tom has officially ruined her career, and he isn’t even casting her in his movies…which is a good thing because both can’t act.
