Description
Billy Dee Williams(yes, Lando) as a Burton-era Two-Face. Hey, he played Harvey Dent in the first two. Yonder Wiki says he had a contract made out specifically so that the role of Two Face would be reserved for him for a 3rd movie, but then got bought out so that Tommy Lee Jones could play him... I don't know who got the better deal there.I normally put drawings and such in a folder labeled "Art"... Not this one... I wouldn't call it that. I'm not sure what I would call it... "Interesting" is a word that comes to mind. Also "retarded".
(Harvey Dent and Two-Face are owned by DC Comics, Billy Dee Williams is owned by George Lucas)

i still believe that Tim Burton was full of crap when he stated that he was going to use Two-Face, cause there was no concrete evidence to back up his words. It felt like he was just lying to the public to cover up his real motive which was to get out of the Batman franchise.
They could have at lest gave Billy Dee a cameo for god sake in Returns but it never happend which is why Billy went down in history as "The Token Black Guy". WB and Joel "I'm soooo GAY" Schumacher bought Billy Dee out and got Tommy Lee Jones instead for Batman Forever in 95 and that's sad that Billy Dee was robbed of that role dispite the payment he got from them. But since that concept didn't happen in Returns all Burton could have done was add a simple one line reference to Harvey Dent so small it wouldn't have hurt the film or confuse the fans about the character's whereabouts at all.
Even though Burton went to that blasted meeting in 95 to give his ideas, WB decided to let him go much to his amazement. But let me ask you this, did Burton fight to keep on as a director for his Batman 3? No of course not, why do you think that is? Because he was not interested in the franchise at all and was happy that he got to be free from it to go on with his life.
Burton reportedly had no fully-fledged plans for Batman III and I'm sure I would have heard of it before now if it were true. All Burton did was give his blessing to Joel Schumacher and the writers and that was it. He did not give any ideas at all during the making of Batman Forever.

Yeah, probably.
It's still fun to play "What If?", though.

Billy Dee Williams would've been more than perfect because Lando was pretty two-faced himself.

What SHOULD have happened in Batman Forever.
1. Catwoman comes back.
2. Harvey is turned to Two-Face but it played by Billy.
3. Batman played by Michael Keaton.
4. Dark tone like the first two.
5. None of that humor and family friendly stuff.
6. Not having Dick Grayson shouting. "I'm Batman!"

I really would have liked to see Billy Dee play Two-Face. I think it would have been really interesting.
Except for the crappy directing.
