RUMORVILLE: BATMAN's New JOKER Chosen?!

By Wind(up)bird July 18, 2006 7:25 AM

On the eve of ComicCon, this could easily be someone turning the hype dial up a notch on the geek machine, but Latinoreview swears they've scooped the batnews of the century year moment.  They're claiming the same insider who told them Brandon Routh was cast as Superman has now named the next Joker (or, at least the guy a deal has been extended too).  His name is...(click over)

This guy...

Heath Ledger

The truth (click on the "T" word for more info on the next "B" flick) is out there, these people were right!  Ledger is Joker.

Director Chris Nolan, Christian Bale, and Michael Cain have all signed on for the next Batman flick.  Dig the three of them in the trailer for Nolan's latest flick, The Prestige.

I mean, my first response was, him? But after thinking about it, I believe it could possibly work. He'll just have to get really, really zany and psychpathic. Oh well. It could be worse.

HGi Heath,
glad to know your impersonating a fan.  

At least sum1s gotta stick up for you,

I reckon Jim carrey should have found a dark side to himself and played it

Why don't you wait to see his performance before you slam the guy?

I was at a friends house the other day, and i caught a glimpse of what Heath Ledger looked like with the make-up on and.. to tell you the truth he looks absolutly fantastic. It was amazing. I am still stoked to see this movie. I have high expectations and i'm sure they will be reached. The first one was amazing, minus Katie Homely I really don't like her...I didn't think she added much to the movie, and her face is seemingly crooked. BUT! That is besides the point. I have seen many movies with Heath Ledger and im sure that he is capable of changing his roles to suit this film.

Bah... nice guys don't play villans   reply
