[Changeling]

:heart: :heart:

eww eva green? no.

 

[Changeling]

Jason Schwarzman? lol

 

[American_Idiot]

Doug Hutchison as Alberto Falcone/Holiday (as Tom Wilkinson's son? I'd buy it, plus he's great)

Philip Seymour Hoffman as Penguin (certainly has the chops to be in a Nolan Batman cast)

Paul Giamatti as The Ventriloquist/Scarface (makes a living on playing pathetic characters, and is a great actor who could do Scarface as well)

Clancy Brown as Black Mask (imposing, scary, with an iconic voice)

Christina Hendricks as Poison Ivy (see her in Firefly)

Brad Dourif as Calendar Man (shave his head and he'd be a creepy Calendar Man)

Brittany Murphy as Harley Quinn (her Sin City performance is what I imagine)

Nice work. I can see Giamatti as the Ventriloquist; he can even pull off the mob boss voice needed for Scarface, as seen in Shoot'em Up.

 

[Laderlappen]

Keri Russell(Waitress) or Marion Cotillard(La Vie En Rose) for Catwoman
Casey Affleck(Assassination of Jesse James) for The Riddler
Bruno Ganz(Downfall) for The Penguin
Josh Brolin(No Country) for Black Mask

 

[elgato]

Selina Kyle/Catwoman-Marion Cotillard (La Vie En Rose, Love Me If ou Dare, A Good Year)

Pamela Isley/Poison Ivy-Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada, Charlie Wilson's War)

Doctor Harleen Quinzelle/Harley Quinn-Kristen Bell (Heroes, Veronica Mars)

Talia Al Ghul-Rachel Weisz (Definately Maybe, My Blueberry Nights)

Oswald Cobblepott-Bob Hoskins (The Lost World, Who Framed Roger Rabbitt)

Edward Nygma/Riddler-David Tennant (Doctor Who)

 

[rzatherazor]

Whoa, American_Idiot, those are some really great choices that i've never thought of before. Everyone else has some new and good choices too.

 

[BobJM]

I don't get all this Marion Cotillard love. Yes, she's an Oscar-winning actress, but she's got a heavy accent. Batman wouldn't need any detective work to figure out who's behind the cat mask.

 

[Majik1387]

Cuz you know, no one can get rid of their accent for a role....


waitaminute....

So does Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Heath Ledger, plus many other actors in the movie.

 

[The Shadow]

Here's mine.

 

[Matt.S99]

Vin Diesel? have you EVER seen the man act?

 

[Two-Face]

Vin Diesel? have you EVER seen the man act?

Only reason they want him is....



He's "bold" like "Mr Freeze"

 

[nolan's roll'n]

What do you guys think about Johnny Depp for the Riddler? There's no way the third film will top The Dark Knight if this doesn't happen. It's hard to top a movie with the Joker in it. This would be one way to top it.

 

[percoset]

Here's mine.

The only ones I even somewhat agree on are The Riddler and Selina.

 

[tyler-durden]

CinematicESP, very good casting, can't disagree with any of your choices except for maybe Murphy as Harley, But I wouldn't mind her.

 

[American_Idiot]

Talia Al Ghul: Monica Bellucci

I like that.

 

[regwec]

I would give my left eye for a filthy back-seat liason with Monica Bellucci, but she is perhaps a little too "vintage" for Talia.

 

[Mollins]

I REALLY think David Tennant would make a BRILLIANT Riddler, you just need to watch a few episodes of doctor who and check out some of his other work to see he's got the acting skills, and the sort of Doctor he's playing is like a toned down riddler in some ways, I think he'd be perfect

I agree, Johnny Depp is a similar type of actor as Heath Ledger.

Also He can play a good Riddler and also increase ticket sales for the third film.

 

[DocHoliday]

I like Depp but I just don't see him in the film. Ledger was popular but by no means was he a superstar like Depp is. Johnny has his iconic pop culture role and that's Jack Sparrow.
