If history tells us any thing, Nolan will choose....... for the riddler

It cant/wont top the last joker. Even if he does get Leo.

Robin Williams is currently lobbying for the role of the riddler..........

If he would play the riddler like his character from One Hour Photo, I think it would work.

 

[TXA&M07]

Thats going from one extreme to another in every single way. Age, build, acting styles.

The Robin Williams crowd is older now too. Mid 30's and up I'd say.

Leo's crowd is still pretty young imo.

 

[OrangeEmpire]

I would go with Depp...... but I could live with Leo.

Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if Hugh Jackman showed up in a Batman movie.

Nolan seems to have a core of people he likes to work with.

 

[TXA&M07]

Johnny Depp would be my choice. Thats him.

 

[OrangeEmpire]

I would love to see Depp as a batshat crazy Riddler. No question mark suit and tights......... just batshat crazy!

 

[TXA&M07]

Yeah, I dont want to see the whole crazy costume and mask and crap. Just put him in some suit that is distinguishable and let Depp do what Depp does.

 

[Roughneck]

Depp would be horrible.

Who the producers want:

Batman sequel to The Dark Knight: Johnny Depp to play The Riddler? - Telegraph

Depp would be horrible.

That's it......... give us more than this.

This is an old but good rumor.

Hoffman would be a great penguin, you know, an actual arms dealer.

I think the movie would be over saturated with Catwoman.

Although Bruce needs a love interest.

I just think its the safe pick. Depp has become the default guy for odd characters and that isn't a good thing.

With all the talented actors out there, it would be nice to see an unexpected choice instead of the same obvious ones. People thought Ledger was a bad choice but he nailed it.

 

[kev20]

yet you know that depp is a bad choice and know he would nail it too.

 

[kev20]

I vote for Buscemi

He turns characters into caricatures. I don't think it would be a good fit for the mood of the movies so far.

 

[VOLatile]

I vote for Buscemi

Oh... no frickin' way. Can't stand his voice.

 

[orangeblooded2]

It's looking more and more like Joseph Gordon Levitt.


Answer: Joseph Gordon-Levitt!

Sources close to the director and star say the pair constantly joked about the idea while on the set of Inception and apparently, it stopped being funny and started to become an idea Chris really "dug." The insider adds:

“It’s not 100% confirmed that he’s getting [the role of The Riddler] but there’s certainly talk about it. Joseph is definitely on the short list.”

You wouldn't think of him right off the bat, but now that it's been mentioned, yeah we can see it!

 

[OrangeEmpire]

He reminds me too much of Ledger.......
