Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard Roles Revealed for The Dark Knight Rises

Fans have been speculating who Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard will be playing in the upcoming The Dark Knight Rises, which begins filming next month. Rumors have imagined everything from The Riddler to Talia al Ghul, but here is what the official release has to say about it:

"Cotillard will appear as Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprise board member eager to help a still-grieving Bruce Wayne resume his father's philanthropic endeavors for Gotham. Gordon-Levitt will play John Blake, a Gotham City beat cop assigned to special duty under the command of Commissioner Gordon"

I think it was more fun thinking of them as villains than actual regular citizens of Gotham. What do you think of them in these roles?
