Peter Foley was the Deputy Police Commissioner in the Gotham City Police Department in The Dark Knight Rises. After Police Commissioner James Gordon was hospitalized, Foley led the police in his stead. He attempted to become the person to finally take down the Batman and later was a resistance leader during Bane's siege of the city. Although Foley was not a corrupt cop, he proved to be a little arrogant and foolish. He is portrayed by Matthew Modine, who is well known for playing Private/Sergeant James T. "Joker" Davis in the 1987 Vietnam War film Full Metal Jacket.
