The Joker Thread - Part 1

[hellblazer103]

Not a fan of Donald Glover’s acting from the little I’ve seen.

Understandable. Used to be a big fan of his work (particularly musically) but I've kinda fallen out of the loop and might have my nostalgic fanboy goggles on for a sec

 

[shauner111]

Ew no. He’s more Robin material. He still looks 18 (Chalamet). I’m still not impressed with his acting. He’s fine but nothing special. I hope Villeneuve changes that with Dune.

 

[hellblazer103]

**** it.

Damson Idris .

His work in Snowfall is phenomenal, he has the right build, and he can really turn up the menace when he has to.

 

[shauner111]

Looks like young Candyman.

 

[Schlosser85]

Looks like some teenage gangbanger Batman would beat the **** out of in two seconds.

 

[hellblazer103]

You're right, he could never do it.

Just like Ledger or Keaton couldn't

Okay, typical fallback excuse. But damn what a quick shutdown lmao

 

[AndyTrevino]

To be really bold, how about Donald Glover?

I know you guys have discussed prosthetics for the next Joker but Jesus, that's creepy-looking.

 

[Boom]

Okay what the **** is this literal nightmare?

 

[Gamma Goliath]

Its a parody from Atlanta. Its either Stanfield or Glover dressed as him. If I remember correctly Donald wore it in the tv show but Lakeith wore it at an awards show.

I like this guy’s look!

Gonna have to check out the show! Sounds like it had pretty good reviews!

 

[AndyTrevino]

....Bill Hader????

 

[Razor Crest]

And just a reminder that Stanfield has been beardless before.

He’s incredibly versatile, that’s for a certainty!

I'd honestly kinda call it the black Breaking Bad in some areas. His character goes through a Walter White type situation where he doesn't seem cut out for it at first but keeps getting corrupted and having to make darker and darker decisions

Love Breaking Bad, so it sounds like it would be my kind of show!

Well, of course lol

I still say you should check out Barry more cause I think Hader could pull off the menace just as well as the goofiness that you'd pick him for.

I actually still think he'd make a fantastic Bruce Banner, but that won't happen

I feel like you could get something real close to Graham Nolan's Joker with Bill Hader; maaaaybe some prosthetics for the nose, cheekbones, and chin.

 

[AndyTrevino]

I'd be real interested to get a more Capullo-esque Joker. I just don't know who the hell you'd cast for that version; I've heard Cillian Murphy and Nicholas Hoult mentioned for that specific version but I'm having a REAL hard time seeing the resemblance for either of them.

At the moment I'm picturing something closer to Endgame Joker with the bloodshot eyes and the super-toothy grin, almost like he's angry.

 

[Schlosser85]

I could potentially see Cillian Murphy for Joker, except I think his already having been Scarecrow makes it unlikely.

He has a good face for it---sharp cheekbones, narrow face, penetrating eyes---and a skinny lanky build. He's kind of small though.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

Okay what the **** is this literal nightmare?

Now I REALLY want them to use prosthetics like this for Joker, just straight up make him unsettling to even look at.

I don't want anything super-duper heavy like this. Maaaybe some stuff for his eyes if they can't accomplish that with regular makeup. Depending on the actor, maybe some prosthetics for the nose, cheekbones, and chin.

 

[AndyTrevino]

This same energy would be pretty cool:

 

[Boom]

Guess I didn't need sleep tonight.

I could *sort of* see that with Cillian Murphy, or George MacKay.

 

[Art Vandelay]

Glover's prosthetics weren't even that outrageous. Looks like they mostly just used makeup.
