Joker Casting Threads [merged-30]

[Marcus M.]

Its to bad Glover is out of the running.

Why do you say that?

[Draw4u]

i still say Jake Busey would be a wicked Joker. Watch The Frighteners, hes crazy in that movie!

[spanish39]

LADY EDNA NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

looks like some poor guy who got the Joker gas lol.

[spanish39]

VOTE for your top 5 guys!

[SINISTER SMILE]

vincent cassel all the ****ing way..hes awesome..and..i think hed be perfect modern joker for bales modern batman..he gets my vote till they cast someone

[SINISTER SMILE]

/\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\

[regwec]

I don't see the appeal of Vincent Cassel. He is thin. That's it.

[Mr Sensitive]

Also, he looks like the Joker (even without make up) and is able to depict both intense and lunatic fellows.

[regwec]

He looks more like a young woman than The Joker, in my opinion. And he's French. That may not matter, but it is a fact that cannot be ignored.

[Mr Sensitive]

regwec, caro mio:

I really don't think he looks like a woman, but certainly not a young one, that's for sure.

As for him being French, not a problem at all. He's being working in American films for a while, and if his English needs a bit of improvement it is quite easy to do it.

[Nightwing]

Why do you say that?

Batman-On-Film.com said so.

[Steelsheen]

Batman-On-Film.com said so.
not that we dont trust you dude, but do you have a link on that? i'm going thru the site i cant find anything on that.

[BasinCityBlues]

am I the only one wo thinks Adrian Brody would portray the Joker perfectly, or does someone out there agree? i dont know, its just a possibilty.

[Calendar Man]

Hmm..I can't say I see it but I'm not all that familiar with him. What makes you think he would be good?

[BasinCityBlues]

I dont know really, he just seems to have the joker look. I dont know kind of hard to say

[greyJester]

He does have "the look"... But as far as his acting goes, I don't really think he could pull it off.

[BasinCityBlues]

well he was in the Pianist, and in King Kong, but yea, I can see where you're comin from. He might not portray the joker properly or something like that could happen. but I still think its very possible he could do it.

[DoomGeneration]

well he is an oscar winner... maybe he could tap into that talent of his

[GaryBall]

Physically, he's perfect - tall and skinny, long face, pointy nose... etc. He's an academy award winner, but not too A-list that he would try to steal the show like Nicholson did. I can't tell from anything he's been in if he'd be a good Joker or not.

[The Chairman]

Brody would be awesome. He's in my top five.

He has the look. He's 6'1, 32 years old, has The Joker's build and long, angular nose, and he is an amazing actor (he has an Oscar).

Manip, anyone?

[Steelsheen]

yeah Brody definitely has the facial features to be a good Joker.

[Bullseye]

I am not a huge fan of Adrian Brody.

I think he could deliver a good performance of The Joker. He's got the look for playing the role of The Joker.

[Caliber]

I dont' think the look matters because its the acting part that is neccessary. I would love to see him as the Joker. I think he could do it since he has done many different roles.

[psychosully]

I dont think he would be very good, he would be alright but there are better candidates out there!

[regwec]

He has a long, slim face; but his features are actually rather soft. He doesn't look capapble of malice. That is reflected by the parts he generally lands. They tend to be sympathetic rather than dangerous characters.

[Two-Face]

Adrian Brody would be great Joker he's 6'1 tall he’s noise is bit longer basically he has look of Joker and he can act as well. my favourite movie of his would be The Pianist.

[Ronny Shade]

I have a friend who's been saying this for a long time...long time. I like it. It isn't the be-all-end-all choice (I haven't come up with one yet) but its certainly promising. I think he's a good enough actor to do it well.

[Stringer]

Id want him as Joker he can definitely pull it off. Watch The Jacket and The Village he was creepy in both.

[The Guard]

No. He's a bit too reserved for my taste.

[JackBauer]

any and all doubts about whether he'd make a good Joker are completely erased after one viewing of The Village...

[Timstuff]

am I the only one wo thinks Adrian Brody would portray the Joker perfectly, or does someone out there agree? i dont know, its just a possibilty.

You are not alone. I too, believe Brody could be excellent as the Joker. I saw a scan from an old comic from a while back with a closeup of the Joker, and I thought "Holy crap, that looks exactly like Adrian Brody!"

[drunkhomer]

naw..he would not be a good joker...he jsut has dat big ass nose

[Bat-God]

No, something about him just doesn't say Joker to me. Maybe his mellowness.


For me, it's Pual Bettany or Jason Lee. Bettany for his performance in Gangster No. 1 and Lee for his performance in Dogma. Remember at the end when he kills the bartender with the machine gun and then laughs AFTER telling a joke? That SCREAMED Joker to me.

[Mr. Socko]

Well he certainly has the look, and could probably act the part good too.

[trustyside-kick]

Adrian Brody..looks too young to be The Joker...

[SUPERSEBAS]

him would be my second choise! but I still whant Crispin Glover!

[greyJester]

any and all doubts about whether he'd make a good Joker are completely erased after one viewing of The Village...
I don't understand that. His role in The Village wasn't anything like The Joker.

[tekken]

and heres my crappy photo manip!
http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/5749/joker3zk.jpg
the eyebrows look too fake and the teeth are so bright! oh well. i had fun making this though, lol.

[Keyser Soze]

I'm sure I remember reading something about Crispin Glover not being in the running. But it was further back - check the archives.

Personally speaking, I don't want Crispin Glover as The Joker.

[javi1024]

i know hes an oscar-winner, but i dont see creepy psycho in him. id rather see paul bettany.

[spanish39]

I never heard it but It sounds like good news to me lol.

[Nimrandir]

Personnaly I think He would be a horrible Joker.

[Dark Knight88]

He definatly has the look and the talent but in some movies like Crispin Glover he comes off very hesitant and not very scary.

[Ronny Shade]

I dont think he's tried to be scary before. I think he could be.

[gothamsterror]

I think he can do it. He's got the look, he's won an oscar which is always good, he may not have tried scary before but I'm sure he could pull it off. He's in my top three along with Number 1: Quentin Tarantino and Number 2: Lachy Hulme

[NOFX]

any and all doubts about whether he'd make a good Joker are completely erased after one viewing of The Village...
I agree:up:

Tarantino, haha. I'd like to see him in a Batman Spoof!

[Nightwingishere]

He can be a good Joker but we need someone that can top or get as close at Jack Nicholson's Joker

[BasinCityBlues]

actually, I thought that Adrian Brody could compete with Jack Nicholson's Joker. but thats just me.

[tamron]

Adrian Brody would be the perfect Mad Hatter. Just look at this still from The Village:

http://img99.echo.cx/img99/1252/thevillage22xs.jpg

I can't see him as the Joker, though.

[antmanx68]

I dont think Brody can be animated or "out there" enough to make the character work the way he should. Thats why i'd prefer someone like Alan Cumming, the guy isnt much in the "intimidation" department but he naturally has a very loony and unpredictable feel.

edit: I wouldnt be the least bit upset if they DID cast Brody, the guy is a very good actor and has some of the Joker's features (big nose, tall, skinny, age)... I'm sure he'd do it justice, as they're naturally going to tailor the part slightly for whoever they choose.

[Cain]

A long time ago I had thought of him for the role simply because of his features. It was really an aesthetic fanboy-esque type of casting it wasn't based on any of his previous roles. Not much thought really went into it. However once I started hearing Bettany's name attached to the role I immediately thought he was the ideal choice. Simply because I'm familiar with his acting and I know he's really got the chops to pull it off. Brody's not a bad choice though I mean if things don't go well with Bettany or even Sam Rockwell if he ever gets screen tested the producers should give Brody a try

[Dark Knight]

i think he should be considered and looke at for sure.

Top candidates who should be looked at or screentested for the role of the Joker IMO....

Christopher Eccleston
Paul Bettany
Adrian Brody
Sam Rockwell
Vincent Cassell
Sean Penn (slim chance he will even be considered)
Crispin Glover

and thats it really..no one else should be considered IMO.

[Bullseye]

^What about Johnny Depp?^

[greyJester]

Now there's an idea I can get behind. Brody would play an awesome Hatter.

[Bullseye]

Johnny Depp's star power would be a key for the sequel.

Whoever will be The Joker, hopefully the actor can show their menacing side when portraying The Joker. Something that Nicholson didn't really show.

The sequel will probably be the biggest film of the three. The Joker is one of the most well known iconic in comic today. That is why I hope their searching for a star powered actor to be The Joker.

Lachy Hulme is going to L.A. this week I think....
When he gets there its to talk Joker.
Alot of people/fans say he looks like him and want him for the role.
I hope he does well.

:joker:

Nope the last interview he has indicated that he was leaving for L.A. for the Joker after wrapping up his new film.

Go to Batman-On-Film.com

I check out BoF.com every chance I get.

[Mr Sensitive]

It reminds me of Ralph Fiennes.

[Nivek]

Batman-On-Film.com said so.


Concidering no one knows who's IN the running to be the Joker, who are they to say who's out. Nolan's doing the Prestige, and I doubt he's even started serious casting for any unestablished roles in the sequel.

Also, you guys follow anything that site spits out, they could say someone like Jamie Foxx is going to be the Joker, and the next day there would be 50 manips of him up here. And then there would be a flood of people saying "how he would be great for the role because of his perfomance in *insert stupid TV show or movie here*.

Unless it's coming directly from Nolan and the WB, or even the actors themselves, I aint buying nothing for Joker casting. Everything here AND on Batman-On-Film is just simply fan speculation.

[Nivek]

Except, of course, that he obviously does.

On what planet? I gave descriptions of Actors with Long Anguler faces, Bettany looks nothing like them. Look at that Harrison Ford movie trailer and tell me thats a "Long Anguler face". Adrian Brody, thats a Long, Anguler face. Bettany, Hell no.

[Nivek]

Adrian Brody: Perfect Joker? No way! I really hope they wouldn't go that route.


Good actor, long facial features and lean, thin body, strong middle american accent, no stranger to action roles, weird laugh, yeah... I think your right. He would be tottally wrong for the role. Give me Limey Bettany as... wait, this is casting the Joker, Brody looks a hell of alot Closer than Bettany!

[Nightwing]

It reminds me of Ralph Fiennes.

Yeah it certainly does.

[greyJester]

Brody has never really looked "creepy" to me. I just can't see him that way. His features do fit The Joker, but I don't believe he could pull it off. I think that Bale's portrayal of Batman really made you fear him, and I can't see Brody facing off against someone like that. Hulme on the other hand looks just as menacing as Bale.

[Bullseye]

Has anyone tried to make a manip of Depp as The Joker?

I'm sorry but Brody is not Joker. There has to be a better actor for the role than Brody.

[Nivek]

He looks more like the Joker than someone plain like Bettany. He'll he has a Brian Bollard Joker look to him.

[gothamsterror]

I like this Adrian Brody as Mad Hatter idea, and if not that, he might make a good Riddler.

[Doc Luis]

Never seen him in a Joker-esque roles. Most of his roles are serious and kinda down

[elorenishii386]

Adrian Brody...could be a good joker...but i'm not too sure yet...

[Bullseye]

What about Andy Serkis as a possiblity for The Joker?

[Nightwing]

What about Andy Serkis as a possiblity for The Joker?

Hmm...Cant see it really lol.

[Bullseye]

^Is it because he's too short for the role?

Well... Adrian has talent, no doubt about that.

My vote sticks wit Depp for right now.

[The Techno Bat]

Adrian Brody was really good in King Kong

[Bullseye]

What about Bill Moseley for The Joker?

Moseley has been in some scary movies and I think he has the edge to play The Joker.

[spanish39]

It reminds me of Paul Bettany.

How does that look like Bettany?

Double post

[Nightwing]

In my mind and opinion it does.

[Nightwing]

Adrian Brody would be great as Joker.He's a tremendous actor,has the nose,and is close to Bales age.

He'd be great.

[The Techno Bat]

Adrian Brody played a creepy physically challenged guy in M. Knight Shamalamadingdong's The Village really well...

[Nightwing]

[raybia]

am I the only one wo thinks Adrian Brody would portray the Joker perfectly, or does someone out there agree? i dont know, its just a possibilty.


Not perfectly, but I don't know of anyone who could be perfect.

[Azry^_^]

well, is one of my favorites, but my favorite is SEAN PENN¡¡¡, check it out in www.seanthejoker.com, there i have put in the fan art some of my own art, you can check it out and tell me what you think about Sean Penn as the joker, well, adrien brody is an espectacular actor, i dont know, but if they choose him ...its O.K¡¡¡ :)

[Two-Face]

Penn is old as Joker.

[Brian2887]

It all depends on the kind of Joker you want. Creepy and reserved with a big-ass smile? Yes, Brody would be great. But, an energetic, slightly effiminate psychopath or laughs at the misfortunes of others? Not sure if Brody has it in him.

[Bullseye]

When I watched The Devils Rejects... Bill Moseley is a great canidate for Joker.

Moseley has a talent for frightening characters.

[Two-Face]

Jack Nicholson's age wasn't a huge factor for when he was The Joker.


Well this new franchise and "BATMAN BEGINS" Nolan & WB want someone could match up to Bale's Batman as young Joker. I mean look canidates for Joker are young.

[spanish39]

Jack Nicholson's age wasn't a huge factor for when he was The Joker.

YES, Jack's age was a huge factor. ALL of us can pretty much say that Jack was geriatric Joker. His age was not a nig deal at the time cause there was no internet for people to ***** about it on lol. We all look back and agree he was too damn old for The Joker, while great, or at best mediocre for what Joker actually is, but too damn old.

Mosely is just about the same age Jack was back in 88' when the film was actually shot, not '89 when it was released.

and while Jack is a great actor, by most's standereds, Bill is just as great as well. Jack's best days have been behind him since Batman, before Batman. All he does now is walks through his roles with ease and makes all his characters seem like just an extension of himself, that sucks.

Bill on the other hand is great because he makes you believe that character of Otis. I have seen Bill outside of Otis on the audtion tapes for "Corpses" and he is just a regular dude. When he becomes Otis you can't really see Bill anymore. Same goes for Chop top in "Texas Massacre 2", you can't tell who Bill Mosley is by watching that chatacter, all you see is Chop top.

That is the difference between a great actor and great acting. Jack just has nothing left to prove so he kinda just acts, while Bill is still ready to make people aware of who he is. I wish he could get better roles after Otis.

With all that giberish said lol, Bill is still too old, barley, for The Joker. But yes he was an early though of mine and he would be a great Joker, just with a bad accent.

[NOFX]

[StorminNorman]

You make the Joker just appear - in this movie, he is crazy, insane, strives for chaos more than anything. He is hated by law enforcement, Batman AND the Mob. I dont like Depp, nor Crispin Glover (btw Bishop he is often talked about), I think the Joker should be Batmans equal, so he needs to be near Bales age and build. I like Paul Bettany or Jake Gaylennhaal.

[Bullseye]

Johnny Depp is a versatile actor. He can act so well. I think he could give a great performance as The Joker.

[StorminNorman]

If the crew wants star power, which may be needed for the sequel, they will need to consider Johnny Depp.

Thats such a good picture,I wouldnt mind if he got the role of Joker.

[db85usa]

i wouldnt mind seeing someone like Ewan Mcgregor mainly because ive never really seen him play a villain in a movie... he can hide his accent pretty good (watch The Island) just get rid of his beard/blondish hair and he could be a very dark joker.

[KILLINGFLOOR]

Ralph Fiennes...............>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I can maybe see Ralph Fiennes.

[Ronny Shade]

I just saw King Kong. Previous to my seeing of King Kong, I had not seen an Adrian Brody movie recently. I now believe that Adrian Brody would be the perfect joker.

[Bullseye]

I can't see either Ewan of Ralph being The Joker.

[Nightwing]

Out of the two I can see Ralph.

[Nightwing]

Ive yet yo see King Kong,but I dont need to see the film to no he'll be a great Joker.

[spanish39]

word to your mutha WAS vanilla ice lol

[Bullseye]

I wonder... Did Vanilla Ice really say that or did Kevin Bacon say that while impersonating Vanilla Ice?

[Batman1939]

After Watching King Kong He'd Be Perfect For The Joker!

[StorminNorman]

He certaintly has the looks, however I have never seen any role he has been in that makes him act like the Joker - I have not seen the Village. I still like Bettany and Gayllenhaal, but I would by no means be disapointed by Brody.

[LastSunrise1981]

http://www.sillyone.com/4drool/bc3.jpg

Brunos Campo for the Joker. Just watch the Season Finale of Nip/Tuck and you'll see he's the perfect Joker. :up:

[Nightwing]

I saw him there aswell,I admit his performance was great in it.

Dont know if he has what it takes to play him though.

[Brian2887]

Ok, I'm trying to come up with some names we haven't heard before, just for the hell of it. Some may not be the best choices, but I'm trying to be original and throw some new hats into the ring. For the record, though, my top choice remains Tim Roth.


My dark horse candidate is Jason Dohring, star of UPN's Veronica Mars. I just rented season 1 on dvd and realized how great an actor this kid is. He can be dark, brooding, funny, sarcastic, and tough. He's skinny and really can pull off unbalanced. Pretty soon, he'll be playing Timothy McVeigh in Dreamland, which shows he can take some pretty heavy roles. Honestly, he reminds me of a young Edward Norton.. Young, though. He's only 23, which is pretty damn young for the role, but the producers are looking for a young Joker. Maybe this is what they want. Keep in mind, though, he is made to look younger in the pictures below, where he plays a high school student. If Nolan and the gang wanted, I'm sure they could make him look older.

My eyes.....

[Ronny Shade]

His character in the village isn't really much like the joker. He plays a semi-retarded guy who is emotionally unbalance and easily angered. He doesn't say much, and he's not loud or showy like the joker is, but he is sufficiently creepy.

[spanish39]

I wonder... Did Vanilla Ice really say that or did Kevin Bacon say that while impersonating Vanilla Ice?

You might be thinking of Jim Carrey from "In Living Color", but I'm sure Bacon did it as well on SNL. The only reason he said it was cause good old Rip Van Winkle, lol, said it all the time. If you listen to the real song for some reaon, then at the end you hear him say it. "Let's get out of here, word to your mutha". Sorry Batman, wasn't trying to talk about your mamma or anything lol. Anyway......

Hey Man! The Dead End Joker Is So ****ing Cool

I only heard Kevin Bacon say it a few times when imperonating Vanilla Ice.

[spanish39]

it's still stupid though huh lol?

[NiИ-Devil_-NiИ]

I totally agree with that dude. He did an excellent job on The Pianist and now he did an excellent job on King Kong and i think its time he gets into a villain.:up:

[Nightwing]

Def agree with that. :up:

Though I havent seen Kong yet.

[LostSon88]

This was brought up in the Nip/Tuck thread, and I agree that the actor who played Quentin would be a good Joker (I particulary like that pic on the bottom).

That torture scene in the Season Finale just screamed Joker. :)

Oh hell no, as a 3 season fan of that show that was a horrible end the the Carver story and a dissapointing season finale. And the Joker doesn't carve smiles, or wear a carved smile.

[Bullseye]

Timothy Olyphant is an actor I don't think has been mention yet as a canidate for The Joker.

[Nightwing]

Cant wait for the next Joker update,I hope it will have to do with Lachy Hulme or Sam Rockwell getting the role.

screw all this.. i wanted crispin glover before, but now i have changed my mind to

Sam rockwell

I see willard the other day, MAN... I cant believe that are so many names and some people chainging his mind! CRISPIN GLOVER IS THE JOKER! not only have the Rigth face, He is a great actor, the one to interpretate this rol! Everybody sould look willard! The movie is not great thing, but the acting of Glover made the movie much better that can would be, one of the thing that impress me, was his face, is his noise, and his very white face! there are good actors for this role, but he is PERFECT

[Katsuro]

There's more to being a good Joker than having the right face. Sure, Crispin Glover looks like the Joker, but he's too wimpy to be the Joker. The Joker is loud and flamboyant, and of course, intimidating, 3 things Crispin Glover is not. He would have to give an amazing screen test to even be considered for the role.

Well, we cant know that , because a good actor can made things that we dont know! I be soprise a lot of times about some work on some actors, I find myself thinking that I never thing this man can doo this. Do you give the to rovin williams after MORK the role of Teacher in a so exelent and dramatic movie like Dead Poets Society (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097165/)? and I think Glover can be intimidating, Look Willard in the part were he go to the office and made the rats attack his boss! his expression on his face and how crazy he looks! I going to see Charlys Angels to see him in the role of bad guy to.

[Brian2887]

I'm sorry, but I hate the idea of Glover being the Joker. I cannot see him being anything but quiet and creepy. Joker is loud, frightening, energetic, and flamboyant. Just because Glover looks the part doesn't mean he's right for it. In my opinion, he most certainly isn't.

Tim Roth, in my opinion, is still the best choice. The man is one of the greatest actors working right now. He disappears into his every role with the ability to change his voice, his mannerisms, his accent, his entire self to become another human being. He and Gary Oldman, both good friends by the way, are the two best chameleons in Hollywood. Roth could easily, easily be energetic and charismatic, while still remaining creepy and terrifying. I'm not sure if anyone else could capture that blend. Just watch Planet of the Apes, The Musketeer, Rob Roy, Invincible, Pulp Fiction, or Reservoir Dogs. The man can act.

For the record, here's what Stax had to say on IGN. "Tim Roth as The Joker. Whomever plays The Joker faces the daunting task of having to top Jack Nicholson. Frankly, I thought Jack's portrayal became too campy as the film progressed (his "Wait until they get a load of me" scene was perfect, though). I think that Tim Roth has the acting skill, sense of humor and sadistic edge that the role requires, and he bears a closer resemblance to the comic book character (albeit shorter). Roth's villainous turns as the devilish dandy in Rob Roy, Dutch Schultz in Hoodlum and General Thade in Planet of the Apes convince me that he could make The Joker his own."

[Joker831]

I totally agree.

I have been a Roth-Joker supporter since this new franchise begun. He could so easily pull of every aspect of this role, it aint even funny. He is a chamelion.

Roth has the damn creepiness, scariness and energy to be The Joker. He doesnt look as old as he is. I dunno why, but he screams Joker to me.

Sure Lachy Hulme may be a good choice, Rockwell and whoever else, but i really do believe Roth would give us a Joker we'd never forget.

[DOO BEE]

i have seen roth in every acting form possible, but recently i saw a movie that i have been longing to see and that is "Four Room" not only now have i seen every tarintino film, but my views on Roth as the joker are complete this guy is ****ing fantastic, i loved him in four room, and its almost like the joker but not as crazy or serious, put that character from four rooms with the direction of Nolan and you have the joker,

one thing scares me but his age, kinda is old.... look at him in "Dark water" he has rinkles bad in that and he scared me coz i want him to be the joker so bad!!!


PS.
what film is that the Black and white pic of roth holding the gun? i really want to see that film now!!!

[Mr Sensitive]

Although I like Roth very much, I can't agree.

And the IGN guy is dead wrong: there is nothing to do with topping Jack Nicholson's Joker. It is to go far from Nicholson's Joker. It MUST be something totally different.

And that's why it would be the same error going with Roth. Both of them (Roth and Nicholson) are great actors, both of them can do great mad villains and both are aged when it comes to the respective Batman movies.

Roth as the Joker would be the same age as Gordon (Oldman, with whom he did Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead). He should be more or less the same age of Batman; and tall, and thin.

That's another actor. There are very good ideas here, already: Cassel, Eccleston, Brody, Theroux, Glover, even Hulme or Bettany. :joker:

[The Chairman]

Brian2887, I totally agree with you. Tim Roth is such a chameleonic actor who can pull off such a creepy and sadistic Joker. He & Adrien Brody are the only actors in the poll who could possibly match up to Nicholson's performance (I'd say Depp as well but I'd much rather see him as The Riddler). While I think Jack will never be topped, I have no doubt in my mind that Roth will leave his own indeliable mark on the role of The Joker.

Tim Roth is a grat actor!!!!! and as I say before, there are a lot of good actors who can play this rol good, but for me, is a big diference with someone who looks good and someone who is prerfect, and i think Glover is perfect in all the meanings, I think nobody give Glover good oportinitys to show what he can do, they only give to glover roles of timid characters, and I think he can sorprise to everybody, he is a grat actor that not to many people can see, because after George Mcfly, nobody give him real oportunitys! S.Conery, Rovin Williams, Tom Hanks, Trabolta and other actors start with roles and movies thant dont let then display what they can do as an actors, see willard and you are going to see how he save that movie from a desaster with his good interpretation, there are moments of magic that are only him! trus me , he is the perfect guy! and also he can made a very crazy sick, dark and diferent joker than the exelent interpetation that Nicolson made! you can see that nicolson made a grat joker, he have a very good makeup , but he have not the body and face of the joker. Crispin look as the joker all the time and he can do a grat work!

[sinewave]

I haven't read this whole thread so I'm not sure if this has already been suggested, but I think Joaquin Phoenix looks a little like the Joker, with the long chin and prominent nose.

[TheGrayGhost]

I used to be a Glover supporter, but then I heard about how he is so difficult to work with. Apparently, the man is a ***** and doesn't get along very well with the rest of the cast and crew. The new Batman franchise doesn't need that type of nonsense.

Besides, upon further thought, Glover just doesn't seem right for the role. The Joker is the greatest villain of all time, but Glover doesn't emit that type of feeling at all. He can come across as sinister, to be sure, but there is much more to The Joker than that. Don't get me wrong, the man is a great actor, but I don't think he is right for the role. Furthermore, try to envision him against Bale's Batman. It just doesn't seem right.

I haven't been able to come up with a definite actor, but Sam Rockwell caught my eye (mostly because of looks).

Ultimately, I'm more concerned on how The Joker will act. I'm hoping this Joker will be more like the Mark Hamill Joker, except more maniacal, deadly, and evil (The Joker in BB: ROTJ was VERY good.)

I can understand it, Donner have not only the perfect superman , he may have the perfect Lex Luthor ( Tely Savalas) and they dont take it, now they have the perfect Joker for batman, and they are going to despise this great oportunity... I am so sad!!!

[Katsuro]

I still dont get why you think he's the perfect Joker. Okay, so maybe there is a chance that he could be able to pull it off and surprise us all, but what makes you think this? For most other candidates, we have reason to think they may be good for the role. Paul Bettany in Gangster No. 1 or Tim Roth in Rob Roy, but for Glover, what do we have? Have you seen some film or perhaps a screen test that the rest of us haven't seen? What is there to suggest he'd be a good Joker, other than his looks, which are not nearly as important as acting ability.

I might as well say they should cast Will Ferrel as the Joker because I think there's a chance that he might be able to somehow pull off a performance he's never come close to in his career and play a character totally unsuited for him, you never know, it could happen.

[Nightwing]

hey guys,

i am new on this board. didnt have the patience to go through all 195 pages of this thread. What do you guys think about Jude Law. He def has the look to play an evil and calculating joker.

here is a quick manip i did of him.

http://img488.imageshack.us/img488/8677/judejoker7rl.th.jpg (http://img488.imageshack.us/my.php?image=judejoker7rl.jpg)

[Bullseye]

That's a nice manip. Very cool.

[Mister J]

God, I just want something concrete. I know the movie isn't going to drop until probably 2008, but I want it.

[Bullseye]

Casting of The Joker won't happen for a few months. So, it will be quite a wait before we see any pictures.

[Nightwing]

Dammit.

[Bullseye]

Sam Rockwell is campaigning to be The Joker. He must really have interest and want to be The Joker.

[Nightwing]

For sure.Though Im hoping it will be Lachy Hulme.

[Bullseye]

I don't know much about Lachy Hulme.

Of course I dont see any casting of him as the joker, but let me say something before.

First I see as everybody, all the draws and ilustrations about joker, and of course there is a lot of diferent interpretation, a lot of them are very diferent one of the other, but if we get the best art about joker, inluding the joker of the batman gotham knigts, you are going to see the same portrait, the same hairlook, the same exprecion on the face, but there are 2 special things, the way of how the smile plays with the chin, the nose, a lot of people give to the joker a aquiline nose, but the best jokers have a special alquiline noise, CRISPIN GLOVER IS THE ONLY ACTOR WHO HAVE THIS TWO SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS and the others to like the hair etc. So his fece is perfect, and that is something important, that is going to help crispin or any actor to act and put the same exprecions that joker made.

Coming back to the begining and the actoral thing, I see in other movies, specially in WILLARD, not only a very very good actor and a person who made a good work on his role, I see CAPACITY, the capacity that someone like Tom Hanks, who start to made comedy and movies for teens, kids and family, but someone see on him the talent and capacity to give him the chace to show everybody what he can do, and look Tom Hanks is one of the best actors of the world.

That is something that novody give to Glover, the fact that he see and know is just some works of him as a timid person, that dosent mean that he only can do that and hve no talent to made other cain of role or interpretation, I know as Tom Hanks and other, that he can do things that we never see, because nobody give him the chance. we see some actor made something very good, and everyvody whant to that actor made the same type of character all the time in all the movies he made, that is very sad thing, I never see Travolta as a bad even Tarantino give the chance to travolta to show other part of his capacity, and he made it great! for that reason I think crispin Glover as other actors have the capacity to made the joker with some things that we know of him and thing that we dont see yet!

The last thing that I whant to sayt is, that it seems to be the way of thinking of a everybody , that it dosent care if an actor looks like some character, if this actor is exelent, I prefer maybe not a so exelent but yes a good actor who look more like the character, than a exelent actor who dosent look rigth.

I think that the good actor who look and become an perfect character, finaly become a better result that the exelent actor who made a disent interpretation.

And I see in short moments in some movies , all the characteristics that a lot of people say that Glover dosent have to play the joker!!!!!!!!!

[zothejoker]

if you've seen the village or the jacket, adrians definitely would fit in to the role of the joker nicely.

as far as someone who mentioned johnny depp. just for his pure acting skill - this would be an amazing choice. this guy just envelopes any character he takes on to play in a film. watch him in movies like secret window and from hell and pirates of the caribbean.

[Brian2887]

Sam Rockwell is a great actor, but I see him more as a reserved, arrogant, kinda funny guy, ala Riddler. I'm not sure he has the range to go Joker crazy. Give him an audition, though. He might just have it in him. He was impressive in Matchstick Men and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.

[Sabretooth]

I think the perfect Joker is the guy who plays Quentin on nip/tuck. Look at the torture scene in the season finale and tell me that doesn't feel like Joker.

Lachy Hulme or Paul Bettany would be my choice of the Joker.

David Tennant (CASANOVA, HARRY POTTER 4, DR. WHO). He creeped the hell out of me in SECRET SMILE, and if he can do an American accent, he'd be perfect.

[Matis17]

I love Dennis Leary as a comedian. And he's done some good work as an actor too. But I'm just not feeling him as the Joker. He has the right look, and deffinitely and eye for dark humor but, honestly, I just don't think he has the acting talent.

[MaskedManJRK]

No they are old.

Isn't he only in his mid-fourties? He doesn't look too bad for his age. Put him and Bale together, and Leary only looks a few years older.

Dude WB & Nolan want younger Joker to match Bale's Batman and look at the candiates are younger and Denis Leary is going into his 50s.

now you're just being anal retentive.

Leary is next to perfect for this role. He's a crazy person. He fits the Joker's personality better than Lachey Hulme and that Paul Bettany guy.

Who cares if he's in his late 40's? Does he LOOK like he's in his 40s? Not really. And i dont think anyone else other than fanboys would be complaining about his age. Hollywood has make up, make up can make people look younger or older.

I think he's a great choice.

Leary is next to perfect for this role. He's a crazy person. He fits the Joker's personality better than Lachey Hulme and that Paul Bettany guy.

Who cares if he's in his late 40's? Does he LOOK like he's in his 40s? Not really. And i dont think anyone else other than fanboys would be complaining about his age. Hollywood has make up, make up can make people look younger or older.

I think he's a great choice.


Oh excuse me for ****ing saying my opinion, he's great choice for you but for me he's not.:up: :( :o

Its not like Leary will ever be considered.

I wouldnt think so.

Leary is good as a comedian. He's not an actor.
