The Dark Knight Joker Casting Threads [merged-30]

[Rynan]

That Depp needs more Clown white.
And that pic of Vince Cassel is creepy. I wouldn't mind if he had a french accent if he could be true to the character.

Keaton as the Joker? That would be hilarous. For us diehard fans that is.

 

[deDIKnight]

That Depp is fine the way it is Rynan

I could've done a more extreme "clown white version" hell i just might still

but if you want to go ahead and do it yourself - you have my permission to do so - just remember who did it first and give credit where credit is due

But as Riven will no doubt tell you - its all about "Realism" in these films

The depp one above has a comic style suit without being too comicbook brightly coloured

The face is light enough to be believeable

Most of the Jokers I've done here have been more "white face" than the depp one

Only for riven to show up and tell me its unrealistic

Seems i'm never gonna please everyone as I slave my a$$ off on these with a sight disability and get no "love"


I do these for Fun as I'm a fan and for those who request me to do some like Flass and Nightwing5 - which is my pleasure to do so

You think you can do better - go right ahead and I will give you professional courtesy and adequate praise

Hulme is being discussed in the Joker thread. This didn't need it's own thread. So let's let this thread die and discuss this at the Joker thread.

 

[Nightwing5]

Here's another Depp one for the Depp Joker Brigade
This one based on his Willy wonka character

I really am warming to depp - but it's unfortunately not going to happen

Cool, another Depp supporter. Why don't you think it will happen? It very well may.

 

[deDIKnight]

Why will it not happen?


Well he's got a morbid phobia of clowns

Might overshadow bale - like nicholson did to Keaton's bat and I think the producers/director doesnt want that as Bale has to be the focus

Depp's notoriously choosy about roles and many have been off the wall parts

True - you cant get much more off the wall than the joker

I hope he gets it but i wouldnt lay down a bet on it


And MOST IMPORTANTLY -
did you like what I've done so far?

and can you get me a pic of depp open mouthed laughing?

SAM ROCKWELL

[deDIKnight]

Good candidate as any man - I'm doing some photo manips/drawings of sam as mr. J just now underdawg

He wouldn't overshadow Bale if he was written right, which I know he will be.

Here are a few good picks to manip.

 

[deDIKnight]

I already got those Nightwing

And I think that second one aint depp but Skeet Ulrich - could be wrong
My sight aint so good

i wanted some with open mouthed laughter cos hes surly in most

Ed wood, Willy Wonka, jack sparrow ones would be good - he laughs a lot in those films


I'll ask again -

did you like what i've done so far?
never got a positive or negative response from you yet either here, pm or email

Critique politely please

 

[deDIKnight]

Agreed Cushy

 

[Boom]

I saw this on another board: Vincent Cassel, he looks crazy as hell.

But can he act? I haven't seen him in anything.

God damn.

 

[deDIKnight]

^^^^^Would it kill anyone to crop this F*ing picture of vincent cassel?


head and shoulders are all that is needed guys not a bloody bill board




I THINK ITS A WONDERFUL PHOTO AND I'M DOING A MANIP FROM IT RIGHT NOW

BUT PLEASE CROP TO THE FIGURE OR REDUCE THE SIZE OF THAT PIC

THE REST OF THE PHOTO IS SUPERFLUOUS

 

[Robin91939]

That guy, IS the Joker

-R

 

[deDIKnight]

This is a work in progress and not finished yet - i got a lot of other work to do thats appreciated

But I'm sick of seeing a giant bill board of Vincent Cassel unmanipulated or uncropped so decided to have a go at both

anyone got any ideas for "realistic" movie clothes?

Here's Monica Belluci's man - Joker Cassel

 

[newwaveboy87]

McFly as Joker

classic

 

[SpyderDan]

Why is everyone so excited about Glover possibly being the Joker? It sounds like crappy casting to me. I mean, it's possible he could pull off a good Joker but I don't believe it.

 

[CConn]

Why is everyone so excited about Glover possibly being the Joker?

1). He's a very good actor. All the while, relatively unknown.
2). He's extremely talented at playing f**ked up psychotics such as The Joker
3). He looks a lot like The Joker.
4). He, I think, would work wonderfully opposite Bale. He's almost an Anti-Bale, IMO.

 

[Nightwing5]

Wow, awesome manip!!

deDiKnight, check you PM box I sent you a message.


BTW, that second pic is Depp.

This is the best one I could find from Ed Wood.

 

[Riven]

That guy, IS the Joker

Too bad he speaks with the thickest French accent you could imagine.

 

[zman]

He wouldn't overshadow Bale if he was written right, which I know he will be.

Here are a few good picks to manip.

Depp is great and all that but I think we see enough of him already, he doesn't need to be everywhere, including Batman's sequels.

 

[deDIKnight]

Yeah its a shame........

If they did a live action version of The Incredibles

Cassel would make a mean BOMB VOYAGE

 

[deDIKnight]

Thanks BTW nightwing - but its not a very good pic that one though he's open mouthed

i need one - a good one from ed wood where hes laughing head and shoulders into the camera

and any -anyone has from willy wonka - i only have closed mouth body and distance shots

 

[SpyderDan]

1). He's a very good actor. All the while, relatively unknown.

Excellent reasons I suppose. I've never seen Glover do anything besides Back to the Future so I wasn't so sure about his talent.

 

[Bathrat]

I'm sure there are better choices out there, but I would really like to see him as the Joker

 

[deDIKnight]

Apart from the BTTF films - Watch Charlies Angels films, Willard and a cameo he has in Wild At Heart

Apart from the last one - not great films - but it does showcase Glover as the Joker quite well

But Glover has potential, as has Depp, Roth and a few others

Glover is odds on favourite as he's "known", cheap (relatively), would make the Part his own, coming back for a sequel? (yeah he would) and he's underrated - needing a huge part like this
