Yes! He is also my first choice. Gabriel Mann definitely has the best look. He's also got the acting chops to deliver a great Joker performance IMO.
Good math. Could maybe be added to the equation:Posted this in a different thread, but here's cinematic equation for The Joker and got the sum of Dennis Hopper as Frank Booth, Dwight Frye as Renfield, Robert De Niro as Max Cady, James Cagney in The Public Enemy, Richard Widmark in Kiss of Death and Klaus Kinski in real life, divided by 70s David Bowie, Alec Guinness in The Ladykillers, Peter O'Toole in The Ruling Class, and Anthony Perkins as Norman Bates.
Feel free to check my math.
I like to think of gangster no. 1 as sort of a joker origin storyI like the suggestion of Willem Dafoe.
Vincent Cassel looks the part and can be crazy but I'm skeptical of his heavy French accent.
Same with Javier Bardem's thick Spanish accent.
Adrien Brody looks the part, but I'm not sure if he could act it.
I liked the idea of Paul Bettany back when TDK casting rumors were flying around, and I still think he could be good. He looks the part, and Gangster No. 1 showed he can be crazy enough. In fact, he's halfway to being The Joker in that movie.
I thought she looked like Conan O'Brien?
Swinton looks like David Bowie
