Anyone else hear this rumor? I think both are great actors but I think Paul Giamatti would be a pretty good penguin.

I'd love to see Harley Quinn as a villain but not sure if that would work w/ no Joker. Scarlett Johannson would be a perfect pick for Harley.

Just a rumor, and if he is, well that would just be terrible.

Well don't know about as bad as Jim Carrey, but can you imagine Eddie Murphy. He'd demand to play 10 different characters in the film.

It's not, it was discredited almost immediately after the rumor started.

And the directors have stated that neither Penguin nor Catwoman will be appearing in any of the Batman films they make since they consider those two characters to be too silly and gimmicky to be featured in a serious Batman flick.

For now that's all just rumors and speculation. We'll just have to wait and see for the real deal. :o

I'm pretty sure that Johny Depp said in a very informal radio interview that he would like to play the ridler. These are all rumors.

As far as the Penguin goes Nolan said that to fit the Penguin in his realistic Gotham City would be a 'big challenge'. So we know for sure that he is currently not planning to include the Penguin, but that could change if he finds insparation.

This Shia guy won't get within a foot of this movie. I think those first two choices though are the most likely and obvious. I think Jude Law could play the Riddler too.

Why do people even want the Riddler to be in the next movie? Isn't he a little bit too much like the Joker? They should go for something totally different.

Well, they can spin it off witha revenge theme of sorts. But come on, Scarlett J would be a great any character....
