    Williem Dafoe, yes I know he played the Green Goblin but he wouldn't do too bad Joker.

    I'm pretty sure they'll use a different mansion. I'm liking all of the suggestions above, actually.

    Especially this one. Genius casting, if you ask me. You're not secretly a WB executive testing the waters are you?

    @dctv3363: Yessir. Wait til you see who's playing Robin.

    *Cough* Zach Galifianakis. *Cough*

    Darn. And here I was hoping for Justin Bieber! Oh, well. Zach sounds like a good alternative.

    There is only one actor to play the Joker, this guy. Just paint him white and he's ready to go:

    Troy Baker, Willem Dafoe, Daniel Day Lewis. Any of these and I would be content. I guess James Franco may be able to as well.

    @crom_cruach: I've been on this bandwagon since before Ledger was cast in Dark Knight. Still love the idea. Crispin Glover already seems to suffer from some type of mental illness, he's perfect.

    Same. He's just got a perfect mix of creepy and goofy he can turn up to 1000 in a split second that would be perfect to play joker.

    Daniel Day Lewis casted in this movies would be terrible.

    He would paint himself as a clown, make scars on his face and then kill people.

    Thenit would go and face all the actor that have played Batman until a real Batman face him.
