Jonah Hill Was Eyed for Secret Role.

Billy Magnussen.

 

As long as they don't hire Josh Gad.
I'd be down with Seth Rogen playing the Penguin. Jason Alexander would be a great pick, as well.

LOL @ defining Clarke, Zahn and Kebbell as poor actors. Woody Harrelson as villain doesn't happen too often, either. And he was brilliant in the role.

 

If anything he chose actors who he thought fit the roles. Not necessarily the biggest and most obvious names just for the sake of it.

 

Earth One Harvey Bullock

 

Per Deadline:

"Word on the Gotham City grapevine is that the only connection between Hill and The Riddler is that perhaps Hill fancied that role over The Penguin, which is the one Reeves wanted him to play."

It's not known if that's just based on character concepts or if Jonah got to actually read the script and thought "oh, this other part would be more fun based on the movie, I'd rather do that"

 

I can't help it, but every time I see Billy Magnussen, I feel like I'm looking at a Ken doll that's been brought to life that then developed a coke habit. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing, lol. He was good in that Ingrid Goes West movie though.

On that note, Aubrey Plaza would make an amazing Gilda Dent.

 

Bumping for ****s and giggles.

If he’s come down from the idea of out-earning Pattinson, I say give him a shot for Ventriloquist.
