The Dark Knight Rises Casting Call (All Villains)

[BestGirl]

I don't think Nolan wasted time with a love story. I'm saying why waste the time now in a final third film if it has no where to go after the film ends? Why waste the time to have him fall in love in one story only to leave it as a huge question mark forever? She could throw herself at him and he could constantly get irritated by it. He would still be broken hearted form Rachel.

Catwoman's and Batman's relationship wouldn't have to be a left a question mark because the third movie could end with Catwoman leaving Batman. Some people have said that Batman getting jilted by Catwoman would make him into a colder, harder person, one more in line with the comics.

...besides, Batman never really had any ONE woman.

And bringing in Selina would establish that. Right now we've only seen him love Rachel.

He wants Selina, that ship has sailed in Nolan's version.

What do you mean?

Lets end this trilogy on a high note and get down to making Batman accepted in Gotham by stamping out villains hardcore style, not getting mushy over the ladies.

Why not have him do both?

Everytime somebody suggest an actor to replace Heath, a baby dies. And every time somebody instead explains why just add a picture, a puppy dies.

Hahahaha^


I'm still for Sam Rockwell or Guy Pierce for Riddler.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman for Penguin.

Cate Blanchett for Poison Ivy.

Jon Malkovich as Mr. Freeze

Vin Diesel as killer croc.

????????????????????on the rest???????????????????????????

Please no Diesel in Batman films and Blanchett does acting chops but ain't hot enough to bee Ivy.

I doubt they'll ever do Killer Croc anyways but I picked him on his size and look. I would doubt any talented actor would play a character like his and I can just visualize Diesel in prosthetics as Killer Croc. But believe me...I know why people don't like him. His film choices and playing the same monotone tough guy get annoying.


As for Blanchett she is a natural beauty and pretty damn good looking in Benjamin Button, IMO. She's definitely the best talent for the character since Uma's version got Schumachered.


What are some of your picks Harvey?

Cate Blanchett is one of my choices for Catwoman(crazy, I know), shes my favorite actress, but she isnt hot enough for Ivy.

 

[Camisado]

Um I don't get it. Why is no one saying Aaron Eckhart for Two-Face??? I mean HE IS TWO FACE!!!!! Whatev besides Two-Face is dead and hopefully they won't bring back The Joker because not much can top Ledgers performance

Sorry LOL I only read like the first page and didn't realize it was from 2005.
My bad.

Is Ivy suppossed to be hotter than Selina? Both were drawn hot in the comics...

 

[tyler-durden]

I always saw Ivy as being hotter, she was supposed to be seductive and alluring.

 

[Cunning Stunts]

I love how nobody thinks anyone can top Ledger's performance.
Ledger isn't the only actor out there who could have done what he did. Believe me, I loved Heath Ledger's Joker from the start, and always will, and what he did was downright phenomenal. However, in the third film, I think The Joker should be featured, and such an outstanding presence won't even be needed as I'm pretty sure Nolan didn't even plan to use The Joker as the central villain in the third film REGARDLESS of Heath's death.
I think a new Joker could very well be used, and if Nolan sees fit, WILL be used.


Note: I'm giving my first stringers/second stringers, so that's why there are two names for each.

Catwoman: Rachel Weisz/Eva Green
The Riddler: Don Cheadle/Andy Serkis
Black Mask: Clive Owen/Daniel Craig
Poison Ivy: Anne Hathaway/
Bane: Mickey Rourke/
Mr. Freeze: Patrick Stewart/Daniel Craig
The Penguin: Ray Winstone/Timothy Spall
Harley Quinn: Kristen Bell/Joey Lauren Adams (I don't care if she's too old)

Some of those are very good choices; especially Winstone on my part. Eva Green and Moss are my top choices for Catwoman right now, but I think there's better out there we haven't thought of yet.

I feel the same way.

What Tyler said. Selina is hot, but Ive always felt that Ivy is and should be hotter. Super hot. Sure she uses spells to make people fall for her, but she should be so hot that half the battle is done for her, because shes uber-hot. Guys should be fallling for her left and right, with or without the potion IMO.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

Yea she is the ultimate seductress. I think of Selina as a sexy tough girl, Ivy is just sexy!

[I am a Guthrie]

After reading Heart of Hush and learning more about his back story I would love to see Hush in a Nolanverse movie and I also think Daniel Craig would be awesome.

 

[Majik1387]

No hush

 

[Majik1387]

Catwoman played by Nicki Clyne

Nicki's a cutie. But even though shes 26, she still looks 16. So no.

 

[I am a Guthrie]

No hush

I feel that for a possible 3rd film in this franchise Batman has to be challanged in new way. Hush would provide that because of the strong connection to Bruce's childhood. Another villain who could provide a new challange would be Bane. He is a strategic mastermind and he also provides the obvious physical opposition. I was against Hush at one point because i thought he was just a small villain who was used in one story line but he just finished up his third and at the end of it we are shown that he will be back. He is the opposite of what Bruce became and it would be awesome to see in a Nolan film...but that's just my two cents.

 

[Matt.S99]

Black Mask dammit!!!
