The Dark Knight Rises Depp to play the Riddler and Hoffman to be Penguin?

[jsf]

fake

 

[jsf]

Yeah, Hoffman thinks he a better actor than he really is.

I liked him in Charlie Wilsons War and Twister

it aint fake i dont post fake ****. im just going from what the news said on british television

 

[Bads316]

They can both **** off

 

[hatebox]

It's all BS, only Nolan know the future of the franchise and I doubt he's told anyone yet...

 

[Eggyman]

Follow your own advice, no0b

I like the sound of this - well spotted, ace

Good choices, but I don't believe it will happen. Nolan's choices are quite unconventional, so it wouldn't surprise me if he casts somebody unexpected again - if we even get a third...

 

[jsf]

fake

 

[Frank Noir]

Yeah, Hoffman thinks he a better actor than he really is.

He's without a doubt one of the best actors right now. Have you seen The Savages? Before The Devil Knows You're Dead? Capote? 25th Hour?

But no Penguin and no Riddler. And a big NO to Depp in a Nolan Batman film.

 

[Jokers_Wild]

Personally, if they do go with the Penguin and Riddler-- I would love PSH, but not sure I'm crazy about Depp. I keep seeing that quirky Willy Wonka character, but in green tights...ewwwww.

 

[Solidus]

This is pretty fake I'm sure. Years ago, there was rumor of Hoffman playing Oswald in TDK. I just think this is a re-hashed rumor with a new spin on it.

 

[Hamill-Joker]

Please no Depp.

I am still having nightmares about Charlies and the Chocolate Factory.

Bring on Nolan's unconventional choice.

Why? With the rep of TDK and Depp the third film could be even bigger than this one box office wise, just imagine all the young girls wanting to see Johnny Depp in the film. I dont like the Riddler though so perhaps give him another role.

 

[Bads316]

Yo egg man, go fry! - just dont want 'stars' in these films. I want the characters on the screen not a celebrity.

 

[bluedragon77]

i could picture depp kinda acting a little bit like sparrow but more subtle maybe.. like a really brainy, wisecracking psycho, that would be pretty cool. i dont know about depp tho i dont think hed do it, but you never know, after the sucsess of the dark knight they might be able to get jesus for the next one lol.. eveybody knows it will make money..

 

[Bads316]

Course he would do it but only if he could have a blow up Tim Burton doll in his trailer.

 

[jackjack924]

I can't believe anything until I hear it from Nolan and company. I doubt he's making any decisions about a thrid one until he takes a much needed vacation from TDK.

I don't care about how it would do at the box office (kind of). I care about it being a good film.

 

[Bads316]

The star of the next film should be Christian Bale

Here is what an article on Yahoo says:

"Johnny Depp is tipped to play Batman villain The Riddler in the next installment of the comic book movie series.

After the huge success of The Dark Knight, which has taken GBP220 million at the worldwide box office, producers are confident they can convince Depp to take on Christian Bale's Batman on the big screen.

And, according to the National Enquirer, studio bosses also want Oscar winner Philip Seymour Hoffman onboard to play another of the Caped Crusader's arch-foe, the Penguin.

The Riddler was played on the small screen in the 1960s by Frank Gorshin and in 1995 movie Batman Forever by Jim Carrey. Hoffman would be stepping into the shoes of TV and movie Penguins Burgess Meredith and Danny DeVito.

A source tells the Enquirer, "(Producers) are convinced that the role of the Riddler is perfect for Depp. Johnny's a pro. He'll be able to take direction from director Chris Nolan and still make the character his own.

And what better Penguin is there than Philip Seymour Hoffman."

Yeh I agree. The cast of unknown actors in TDK really paid off

 

[LegendaryCaleb]

id really like Depp or Pitt for the riddler....
but this belongs in the sequel section

 

["V"]

Casting for The Dark Knight didn't start to take place until a couple of years before shooting; I think it will be the same case here. Goyer and Jonah still have to pursuade Chris to do another one! Until a third film's actually confirmed I'd take any casting rumours with a very big pinch of salt.

 

[ronny]

Grrr...Depp is a great actor but I don't see him as The Riddler. David Tennant has the talent and should be given the role. I really think he deservess to take a stab at it and go into the big time, he's too talented to be ignored.
And as for The Pengun? I cannot fathom why they wouldn't tip Bob Hoskins for the part.

 

[Ace of Knaves]

yea but no one ever is in the sequel section. and to whoever is calling it fake, its not some fanboy on the internet making it up, its an actual entertainment corporation so if they are lieing they would be in for god knows how many lawsuits and what not.
