The Dark Knight Rises Casting Call (All Villains)

[American_Idiot]

Hell, I'd like to see them all eventually. If they can maintain making quality Bat-films, why not. Clayface, Man-Bat, the Ventriloquist & Scarface...as far fetched as some of these villains are, they'd all be interesting to watch on the big screen, with the right people behind it, IMO.

 

[David Rice]

Heath Ledger or Vincent Cassel - The Joker
Kristen Bell - Harley Quinn
Kate Beckinsale - Catwoman
Anthony Michael Hall - Riddler
Cillian Murphy - Scarecrow
Aaron Eckhart - Two-Face
Philip Hoffman Seymour - Penguin

Only villains I want in the Nolan Batman franchise

NICE!!!!

 

[Rezzo]

Yet you replace my suggestions with a terrible actress.

Was watching Underworld and Underworld Evolution and I kept totally picturing her as Selina Kyle

 

[Rezzo]

It's the outfit. That's about it.

Wasn´t the leather outfit that had me picturing her as Selina Kyle, I still haven´t been able to think of someone that can come close to Michelle Pfeiffer´s performance as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Rosario Dawson is a name that comes to mind though

 

[Rezzo]

Ugh, god. Another name I'm sick of hearing.
She's a good and capable actress yes, but not for Catwoman.
Beckinsale isnt either of those two.

I agree that Rosario is capable but just don´t think she´s right for the role

 

[dude stannis]

Penguin: Joe Pesci
Catwoman: Carrie Ann Moss
Riddler: Edward Norton
Mr. Freeze: Patrick Stewart
Bane: Sylvester Stallone
Amanda Waller: Ving Rhames
Poison Ivy: Jennifer Garner
Superboy Prime: Tom Welling
Alexander Luthor: Michael Rosenbaum
Dr. Light: Michael Ironside
Deadshot: Quentin Tarantino

 

[BobJM]

He obviously isn't since he cast Ving Rhames as Amanda Waller.

 

[American_Idiot]

Please tell me you're not serious.

Some of those aren't bad choices. I second Stewart for Freeze, and wouldn't mind seeing Norton as the Riddler or even Pesci for Penguin...but Stallone for Bane? Thats gotta be a joke...I think.

Moss would be okay...but I've always thought she was kind of a "butterface". I'd prefer my Catwoman have an attractive face to go with that killer bod. Jolie, though many of us are probably sick of the name, would do well as Catwoman.

The Joker ~ Paul Bettany
Two-Face ~ Clive Owen
The Riddler ~ Ewan McGregor
Catwoman ~ Bridget Moynahan
Mr. Freeze ~ Ed Harris
Mad Hatter ~ Dustin Hoffman
Clayface ~ Benicio Del Toro
Killer Croc ~ Jason Statham

Those are all the ones I can think of right now... I'll try to add more later.

 

[gadgetfusion]

The Joker ~ Paul Bettany
Two-Face ~ Clive Owen

Mad Hatter ~ Dustin Hoffman
Killer Croc ~ Jason Statham

Those are the only ones I can agree with or at least tolerate. I don't see Ewan McGregor as a good Riddler at all.

 

[dude stannis]

Please tell me you're not serious.

Half serious-half joking. Everything up until Bane was serious, from Bane onwards I was joking. Although I'd say Michael Ironside would make a great Dr. Light.

 

[gadgetfusion]

Paul Bettany - The Joker
Zooey Deschanel - Harley Quinn
Christina Ricci - Catwoman
Alan Cumming - Riddler
Bob Hoskins - Penguin
Christopher Eccleston - Scarecrow
Tobin Bell - Mr. Freeze
Lily Cole - Poison Ivy
Clive Owen - Two-Face
Ian Holm - Mad Hatter
Ron Perlman - Killer Croc
Nathan Jones - Bane

I am replacing Zooey Deschanel with Brittany Murphy as Harley Quinn and Christina Ricci with Rachael Leigh Cook as Catwoman.

 

[Rezzo]

Rachael Leigh Cook as Catwoman.

Doesn´t look the part at all and plus she looks way too young and innocent

 

[gadgetfusion]

I'm assuming you've never seen her in the movie 11:14.

 

[Rezzo]

I'm assuming you've never seen her in the movie 11:14.

One film would not change my mind about her looks too young and innocent

 

[Matt.S99]

I am replacing Zooey Deschanel with Brittany Murphy as Harley Quinn and Christina Ricci with Rachael Leigh Cook as Catwoman.

hell no to both, im sorry but brittany is so overrated for harley and i doubt she can pull off a convincing doctor, and just a hell no to rachael, stick with ricci, better actress and way better for the part, watch 'Miranda'

 

[Matt.S99]

Ugh, god. Another name I'm sick of hearing.
She's a good and capable actress yes, but not for Catwoman.
Beckinsale isnt either of those two.

shes probably the popular choice you should be least sick of, theres alot of frequently mentioned names here that are worse, at least rosario isnt so overcast

 

[gadgetfusion]

hell no to both, im sorry but brittany is so overrated for harley and i doubt she can pull off a convincing doctor, and just a hell no to rachael, stick with ricci, better actress and way better for the part, watch 'Miranda'

I forgot about Miranda. Okay, back to Ricci for Catwoman, but I still like Murphy better as Harley.

 

[Matt.S99]

no no, sorry but zooey is a better actress and could pull of both parts, brittany would probably be too expencive and isnt that great of an actress either

this shot is very harley ish

 

[gadgetfusion]

no no, sorry but zooey is a better actress and could pull of both parts, brittany would probably be too expencive and isnt that great of an actress either

this shot is very harley ish

Ya know what, forget I even changed anything. It's rare that I keep the same casting without changing it anyways. I still like Murphy, but Deschanel is a better actress (I liked her best in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy).

 

[Matt.S99]

lol that happens to me sometimes, but id say stick with deschanel shes much better and cuter, plus brittany always sounds weird

 

[gadgetfusion]

Yeah. I hope Harley and Catwoman are in the third Nolan Batman film, maybe throw in Poison Ivy as well.

 

[Abe Rush]

I updated my list with a few other casting choices...

The Joker ~ Paul Bettany
Two-Face ~ Clive Owen
The Riddler ~ Ewan McGregor
Catwoman ~ Bridget Moynahan
Mr. Freeze ~ Ed Harris
Mad Hatter ~ Dustin Hoffman
Clayface ~ Benicio Del Toro
Killer Croc ~ Jason Statham
Harley Quinn ~ Audrey Tautou
Poison Ivy ~ Evangeline Lilly
Man-Bat ~ Kevin Bacon
Black Mask ~ Chiwetel Ejiofor

I know some (if not most of them) won't please a lot of you... but right now, I like it like this.

 

[Two-Face]

Egghead - Hugo Weaving

For serious.

Egghead was created by "Batman 160s TV Series" I believe he's not in the comics.

 

[Matt.S99]

I am replacing Zooey Deschanel with Brittany Murphy as Harley Quinn and Christina Ricci with Rachael Leigh Cook as Catwoman.

oh ya, btw, hell no to lily cole as poison ivy also, ivys supposed to be a sexy bombshell, i dont even fine lily that cute at all ,she looks like a fish/ alien
plus she isnt an actress

a few names i like are Tricia Helfer and Eva Green but my #1 choice is emily blunt
