Eilif Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 I don't think it would happen, but I think that Cher would be ideal to play a later-year-fem-vigilante. I've seen the Dark night in the theaters twice, and I have to say that I'm sold on this new incarnation of the Batman mythos. Quote
Green Ghost Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 This is so untrue! I mean, there isn't a script yet, no story, Nolan didn't sign for a third Batman yet! Also everybody is talking about that Riddler, Catwoman and Penguin are in the next movie, but Nolan don't like the Penguin an he isn't a fan of Catwoman. Everything is pure speculation... Remember when Heath Ledger was announced as Joker? You never heared his name until a week or so before the official announcement from WB... All the newspapers just wanna make storys to sell their papers, because Batman is hot right now(specially the in the UK, like the Sun, or the Daily Mirror). Quote
Faramir Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 But... she's not even an actress... is she? And she's... old... She's going to have to do a hell of a job to follow up Heath Ledger. But Depp as the riddler... I think I can see that, although I find the Joker and Riddler too similar to have two movies in a row. Quote
Green Ghost Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 But... she's not even an actress... is she? She was an actress in the 80-90, I think she even has an Oscar... Quote

But Depp as the riddler... I think I can see that, although I find the Joker and Riddler too similar to have two movies in a row. Yeah they're both crazy criminals who like green . I think this is possible but highly unlikely. Johnny Depp playing a character sounds great though, I'm not sure if the Riddler is the right one though . I'm planning on seeing The Dark Knight soon. I've been too busy to see it . Quote
Pencoin Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 If both Cher and Johnny Depp are in it, then i'll like it . Johnny Depp is the perfect character for the Riddler, He can be manical one minute but deadly serious the next. Quote
CF Mitch Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Johnny Depp is the perfect character for the Riddler, He can be manical one minute but deadly serious the next. I agree, and I would see this movie, if that's true. I only hope the Cher=Catwoman & that other guy as The Penguin isn't true... I'm very hoping for a Mr. Freeze for the next Batman movie Mr. Freeze rules Quote
Plural Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 If Catwoman is in this hypothetical third film, which I doubt, there's no way Cher would play her. First of all she's 62 years old. Second of all they would probably rather cast an actress who hadn't had an crazy amount of plastic surgery which probably limits her acting ability. Thirdly, it's freaking Cher! Quote
hewkii9 Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 If all of that is true, the movie could be better then the dark knight. LOLZ sarcasm? Johnny Depp is the perfect character for the Riddler, He can be manical one minute but deadly serious the next. That was the Joker, though. I highly doubt it'll happen - it mentions Philip Seymour Hoffman as the Penguin - that's a rumor, Nolan doesn't like the Penguin, etc. Cher? Eyuch. I'd rather have Kristen Bell as Harley Quinn. Quote
Plural Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Cher? Eyuch. I'd rather have Kristen Bell as Harley Quinn. Kristin Bell as anything would be fantastic in my opinion. Quote

He hasn't even decided whether or not to stay on as director. Though you are wrong about Catwoman, Nolan never said any dislike for her. Ultimately this means we can dismiss news for the next 6 months really, because all of it will just be fake. Batbrick Away! Quote
VBBN Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 Well, whtever the fact, she would NOT be a good catwoman. Now, who will be penguin and Bookworm? Quote

hewkii9 Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 I had an idea that were there to be a third, it'd be Harley Quinn and Mad Hatter. Although I thought Leighton Meester [minor character on Veronica Mars, Blair from Gossip Girl] would be playing Harley, so what do I know? Quote

I really don't understand how you can just automaticly rule it out as being untrue. People love to think that they know everything there is to know about up coming movies, when in realality, they don't know anymore than anyone eles, if not less than people in the industry. While i'll agree that it is all just speculation at this point, you can't just automaticly rule out as it all being completly being untrue.

And how exactly do you know for sure that it isn't being planned? Did you yourself talk directly to the director and producers? Whom from the industry told you for a fact that there isn't talk of a 3rd film? Actors, directors and all types of people in the industry attend hollywood parties, premier's and such,and its there that people start making chit chat about roles that they would like to play, as well as directors talking to actors they'd like to see in there films. So its very possible that whats being reported could have SOME truth behind it. Lets be honest, and be honest now.... Would you have ever picked heath Ledger to play the role of the Joker in the DK? I remember myself hearing months before that he was a possible canidate, but too dismissed it cause i thought he'd never be able to pull it off. Now look. Probbly some of the best acting iv'e ever seen,and i'm sure we can all agree that he did a fantastic job of playing the joker. I've too heard that Nolan didn't want to use the penguin not cause he didn't like him,just that he didn't see how he could fit that character in with his new batman adaption. Who knows, maybe him and his writers are working on somthing. Maybe he's pulling a Micheal Bay, and saying a bunch of stuff to through people off. Even though he hasn't offically signed for a third movie, you can bet that a third one is in some way or form in the making. The reaction to both movies have been so positive, and there's so many more possibilites for more stories, that Nolan would be a fool not too. Edited August 27, 2008 by 5150 Lego Quote

The reaction to both movies have been so positive, and there's so many more possibilites for more stories, that Nolan would be a fool not too. If you listen to all the interview and stuff on the net, you know whats going on. WB has offered Nolan a third movie, but he is still on holiday. Nolan himself has said, that he didn't think about a third movie, because TDK was such hard work and he put everything into it. It is only said, that Jonathan Nolan has an idea about the possible story, but thats all for now. I just found an article on SuperHeroHype: While the internet is going crazy with casting rumors that aren't true for Christopher Nolan's possible third Batman movie, the director himself is on vacation as The Dark Knight approaches $500 million domestically. SourceAlso if you want the best news for the next Batman film, visit Batman on Film he has some real insider sources and has a good feeling about rumors and that stuff! Great site for anybody who is interested in Batman 3 For example, he didn't even post the Cher news and now, he said this: Two things I can't believe. One, that so many legit media outlets picked up on it and two, that so many seem to actually believe it! So one more time, CHER IS NOT PLAYING CATWOMAN IN THE NEXT BATMAN. Got it? Good...

No, it wasn't dislike for the character I think it was said , that this would be the third version of Catwoman on the big screen within 20 years and thats maybe to many. Also (I think it was on Batman-on-Film), they said that the only way that Catwoman could be in the next Batman movie, is when WB would demand it! But if they are clever and want Nolan back, they woun't say him what he has to do and who to use... But I don't have a link or something, sorry but I try to find it... And this wouldn't rule out Catwoman, because if they come with a new, good idea for her, I think Nolan would bring hner in...but like all the other things, this are pure speculations right now Edited August 27, 2008 by Green Ghost Quote

I don't want to be rude, but I feel like I'm typing to a brick wall, see above posted article about Nolan's holiday, not ot mention information that his next project planned years ago is most likely an adaptation of "The Prisoner" tv show. Not to mention only half a dozen interviews with producers and WB honchos stating that it is up to Nolan and nothing is set in stone, and that Nolan is as previously mentioned on holiday. Not ot mention again that Nolan himself has stated he takes things one film at a time and has no plans as of now. I'm not saying Nolan won't return, but clearly he hasn't yet and no plans are in. Neither would he cast her anyway because Nolan despite making the characters more realistic always keeps their core, and at her core Catwoman is NOT a 62 year old woman. EDIT: Brainbox! Save me!

Posted by: Jett Thursday, July 31, 2008 6:42 AM TEXAS TIME: One of my old TDK insiders emailed in overnight to give us her/his insight into the use of Robin and Catwoman in BATMAN 3. This very in-the-know person says it's very unlikely that Chris Nolan would use Robin or Catwoman in a potential sequel. "The only way [Nolan would use Robin or Catwoman] is if Warners demanded it -- and if they're smart, that won't happen," says our gal/guy. She/He also informed us that the "cats" comment made by Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) to Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) meant absolutely nothing -- it is simply a tongue in cheek remark and nothing more. And one more thing, the "Mr. Reese = Mysteries" thing? Nothing there to see, time to move on... SourceI know it is also a "insider", but the past has shown, that Batman-on-Film has some pretty good contacts and that the site is very trustworthy... Edited August 27, 2008 by Green Ghost Quote

Here is another quote to support your argument : And Warners and Legendary are both interested in doing a third in the series, but all involved say it will be up to Nolan to come to them with a story and a plan. "There are a lot of us who emotionally would love to do it," Roven says. "But it's really Chris' call. Chris is the kind of filmmaker who just doesn't think about the next movie before he has completely finished the movie he is working on." For now, Nolan is taking a well-earned vacation. Says Roven, "When he comes back, we will see how he feels." Source Edited August 27, 2008 by Green Ghost Quote

The Penguin Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 All that's been said, gentlemen, is perfectly true, but don't you think that its pure coquetry from Nolan with his will-be-back-or-not mystery? ) If I remember it correctly, Tim Burton was practically forced from the director's seat, even though his second film was not that popular.... I think Nolan will be back. A fool he must be, not to, after such a boom of TDK. ) I personally hope for two more films. That would be just fne: neither too much, nor too little.... ) and if we get them it will become something as great as Star Wars trilogy, or Indiana.... ) Good day, gentlemen ) Quote
simonjedi Posted August 27, 2008 Posted August 27, 2008 I would like the Penguin to be the gentlemen of crime. A quite normal, if somewhat loathsome and brutal mobster pulling political strings and futhering the manhunt for Batman. He'd make a great villain and he would fit perfectly into the Nolan universe.
