Eddie Redmayne very much wants to play The Riddler on the big screen

I think he'd be a good fit

You know goddamn well they're gonna find a way to shoehorn that shyt in there.

Tormented past, flashback in a conversation with one of his rogues. Will also play a part into Bruce's demeanor which isn't bad.

That would be fire

 

[23Barrettcity]

He damn near may be perfect

The funny thing would be if he meant Jim Carrey’s riddler and he’s just hamming it up

 

[Lootpack]

I don't like always going with the obvious choice on things.

Call me crazy (I am), but I'd strongly consider Tracee Ellis Ross for Catwoman with this recent news.

Kevin Smith Says Robert Pattinson Batman Movie Is Based on The Long Halloween

During the latest episode of the FatMan Beyond podcast, Smith was taken back when co-host Marc Bernardin explained the rumor that it would adapt The Long Halloween.

"To be fair, I heard it to, and I heard it from a good source too," Smith explained.

Taking place during Batman's early days of crime fighting, The Long Halloween tells the story of a mysterious killer named Holiday, who murders people on holidays, one each month. Working with District Attorney Harvey Dent and Captain James Gordon, Batman races against the calendar as he tries to discover who Holiday is before he claims his next victim each month, while attempting to stop the crime war between two of Gotham City's most powerful families, Maroni and Falcone. This novel also acted as a re-introduction to the DC Universe for one of Batman's most elusive foes, Calendar Man, who knows the true identity of the Holiday killer but refuses to share this with Batman. He instead riddles and gives Batman hints from his Arkham Asylum cell. The story also ties into the events that transform Harvey Dent into Batman's enemy, Two-Face.[2] Enemies such as Scarecrow, the Joker, Mad Hatter, Poison Ivy, and the Riddler, among others, also make appearances.

@MartyMcFly One of the Goat stories

My favorite Batman story

It's this and Court of owls that I want done the most. With a little Redhood thrown in there

 

[Mortal1]

I just re-read Long Halloween and one thing I really noticed visually was how Tim Sale kept Batman as a shadowy figure. That'd be really cool if Reeves went for this type of look for batman.

 

[-DMP-]

This shyt is gonna be special and set itself apart from.all other Batman movies.

I can feel it

This might be goat level shyt

 

[Human Torch]

Give me Gugu for cat woman if she’s gonna be played by a “POC”



The potential of this movie has me intrigued though I wonder if DC leaves Joker out of this or if we get yet another rendition. Tough call if you ask me

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I ain't sayin Kevin Smith might not know but he does say a lot of shyt and even if it's based on Reeves gonna have his own spin. I just like that we getting that detective work

They can do a Batman film and it'd fit in the same genre as a True Detective, it wouldn't be out of place for Bruce..

 

[jackswstd]

I’m liking the direction this is heading in.
