Tommy Wiseau Interested In Joker Role
I wouldn't be mad if they scrapped the 1980s crime drama idea and just made it a DC comics styled remake of The Room. Joker kills himself at the end because of his relationship troubles with Harley.

Tommy Wiseau > Joaquin Phoenix

It's just facts.

Alternate universe, my dude.

First Flashpoint, now this **** ?

The DCEU is in early years with bad results. Instead of trying to make it better, now they tried to reboot it with Flashpoint and make a non-canon movie ?

Not going to lie...I wanna see it.

Same here!

Flashpoint being used to reboot the DCEU hasn’t been confirmed in any way. Why are you talking about it like it’s already happened?

As for making a non canon movie.
Why not?
The shared universe isn’t exactly working out for them.
Just focus on making good movies based on DC characters

WB was most successful with DC when they weren't doing shared universe films. So why not do a few films that aren't cannon to the DCEU.

So a totally new Joker movie, completely unconnected to the failed DCEU, will go into production long before any Joker related film starring Jared Leto.

The DCEU is dead.

 

[Greens]

Good.

 

[Flint Marko]

Double good.

I was pretty meeehhhh on a Joker solo movie, but Joaquin's involvement is just too damn interesting.

That said.... $100 million budget? Okay, WB....

 

[Greens]

I'll take anything below that seemingly standard $250 million price tag as a win.

 

[Guts]

The news on Joaquin said he was in talks for the role. Hopefully he turned it down and they choose Tommy.

A win for fans everywhere, and therefore, the world.

 

[EmperorCommodus]

This is such an awful idea, and keeps moving Joker away from what he is meant to be: An evil clown.
I am so sick of seeing him as a crime boss, or a navel gazing philosopher droning on and on about how crazy he is. I swear, if it's as pompous and edgy as the Joker graphic novel, it's going to be an absolute disaster.

 

[OutOfBoose]

I'm not dismissing this one until I watch the trailer. The idea is bad, but who knows.

The report said he accepted the role, so it would be further along than just talks.

Bridgette Wilson in the 90s. Good taste in hnnngh, sir.
