"The Joker" in development with Todd Phillips and Martin Scorsese attached?

[Venom 1988]

Gun to the head, you wouldn't take a rebooted Joker over a continuation of Ayer/Leto's?

Of course I would, I hated Suicide Squad. But according to these articles, this may not even take place in the DCEU so its null. Its like WB is just throwing crap at the wall.

 

[Guts]

The most intriguing thing about this is that WB is doing live action elseworld movies. Now I am hopeful for a Red Son, Final Frontier, Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth, or even an Earth 10 Superman movie.

These movies will also be in a sort of Shared Universe:

The project is intended to be part of a still developing label for Warners’ DC Entertainment properties that will include projects that could stand apart from the big massive tentpoles that are tied to each other in a shared universe way.

Also this is what JVR was talking about when he said that he pitched an idea for Red Son to WB.

 

[Frodo]

I don't see it as a bad idea at all if the execution of it is good, the story is excellent, and they find a good Joker.

A Scorsese produced Joker film sounds much more intriguing and promising than the baggage of the current DCEU, save Wonder Woman.

DC/WB stop...just stop! Put this time and energy into the otjer dozen titles you've announced.

Stand apart from the tentpoles that are tied to each other in a shared universe way. Sounds like it won't take place in the same continuity with the DCEU.

 

[Pennywise]

Since they might do projects separate from DCEU, I really want to see a Batman film that takes place in the 30's/40's! That would be cool!

Yes, at least it seems like it. These Elseworld stories will take place in a Shared Universe. Not sure about that. Doesn't the scope become much narrower if this is true?? Stories in varied timelines or continuities would have been a better use of the new DC label, no??

 

[Guts]

This does sound like WB is trying out the multiverse aspect of DC comics. I hope it will be just as crazy as the multiverse from the comics. We could even get a Captain Carrot movie.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I want cameos from Condiment King, Pack Rat, and Mighty Mom.

Blitzkrieg, I think they're saying:

The project is intended to be part of a still developing label for Warners’ DC Entertainment properties that will include projects that could stand apart from the big massive tentpoles that are tied to each other in a shared universe way.

rather than:

[The Joker]

Another brain fart idea from WB.

Ah, that's better. I totally misconstrued that part. Thanks for the explanation.

Bradley Cooper
Ed Helms
Zach Galifianakis
Justin Bartha
Ken Jeong
Miles Teller
Jonah Hill

 

[Guts]

If they do an Earth 10 movie, they can't leave out this part.

 

[Greens]

Possible Joker candidates:

Bradley Cooper
Ed Helms
Zach Galifianakis
Justin Bartha
Ken Jeong
Miles Teller
Jonah Hill

Ken Jeong all the way.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Possible Joker candidates:

Bradley Cooper
Ed Helms
Zach Galifianakis
Justin Bartha
Ken Jeong
Miles Teller
Jonah Hill

They should include Dane DeHaan.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Ken Jeong all the way.

 

[Eddie Dean]

When did DeHaan work with Philips?

 

[Guts]

Jonah Hill was in Wolf of Wall Street. So he also has that Scorsese connection.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Jonah Hill as The Joker confirmed.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

When did DeHaan work with Philips?

I don't know if he did, I know he nailed the "HAAAAH" funny evil stare in TASM 2, DCEU's Joker has it.

Sorry, he is out of the running because he has not been in a Todd Phillips film before.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Sorry, he is out of the running because he has not been in a Todd Phillips film before.

How does one get into one of his movies the first time?

 

[Eddie Dean]

That's the catch 22.
