Who would be able to pull off the Joker in the next Batman film?
my vote would be for Michael Shannon. His character in Revolutionary Road was constantly reminding me of Heath Ledger's interpretation. His mannerisms and accent was very similar to Ledger...

Let's start a thread for TDK/Joker slams, threadcraps and the like (perhaps in the premium forum?) and then let the rest propagate like wildfire.

And my vote is for Britney, she's pretty crazy isn't she?

Joseph-Gordon Levitt
Denis Leary
Emile Hirsch
Brad Dourif (if they set it 20 or 30 years after Dark KNight Takes place)

I hope they bring back Joker. Yes Ledger was great but he is not irreplaceable. Joker's storyline felt unfinished. He needs to die.

The only other person that should play Joker in a Batman film is Keely Hazel:

Joseph Gorden Levitt has my vote. Looks a lot like Heath as well. But I dont want them to do it. Just move on.

I don't know about playing The Joker but I can list about 14 things off the top of my head I wouldn't mind doing to her. Including about 4 I've already gone ahead and done to her picture.

EDIT: Oh, and it's Keeley. For future reference.

I agree with the votes for Levitt.

I also agree with this in general.

I kinda like the movie, I thought it had cool scenes, I like the darkness of it, and I thought it was also funny. You say it sucks, I say it's super. And the quote was one of the coolest lines in it.

And Keeley could also play the Penguin, Riddler, Killer Croc or Clayface. Just look at the photo. Isn't that convincing enough to cast her?
