Johnny Depp as the Riddler on the next Batman film
June 25, 2009
There’s a rumor that Warner Bros. execs want Johnny Depp on the 3rd installment of Christopher Nolan’s Batman series as The Riddler. Who’s the next Batman villain has been the talk of the town after the memorable portrayal of the Joker by the late Heath Ledger. Heath Ledger’s performance really helps the film to reach the $1 Billion mark on worldwide box office. Beating the The Dark Knight is difficult so they must pick the right one on who will be playing the next villain. I think Depp is a good choice; he got the talent and the appeal (he is proven having multiple box office films on his belt).
Another Hollywood actor is considered to be the next villain, Philip Seymour Hoffman as the Penguin. But according to Nolan, the Penguin character is way too farfetched and he doesn’t like it on the series. But that’s not yet final and I think the Penguin and the Riddler is a nice combination for the third installment.
