    In one of the most anticipated announcements in recent memory, Warner Bros. officially set a date this morning for the follow-up to The Dark Knight. Tentatively known as Batman 3, the movie will debut July 20, 2012 in conventional and IMAX theaters, almost exactly four years after The Dark Knight opened to record-breaking numbers.

    I hope to God they don't have Robin. What villian would I like to see? Maybe the Riddler. As long as they don't hire Johnny Depp to play him!

    I'm guessing Nolan will be on this as soon as he is finished Inception. Hopefully, any other director and I'd be disappointed, unless maybe it was Werner Herzog.

    Also: Heath Ledger did a wonderful job and all, but I'd honestly like to see the Joker return to some capacity. It just felt like his story wasn't finished yet. Of course it never is - the Batman and Joker relationship is one of the most brilliant and interesting dynamics around.

    I would also like to see the joker return.

    I think the riddler is most likely though in keeping with "reality"

    I know what you mean but I just think people would focus on the comparrisons between Ledger and a new actor, and no matter how good the movie was people would base to much emphasis on the new actor.

    Personally I would like to find out that Maggie Gyllenhall had survived and to play the role of Harlequinn with a bad case of Stockholm syndrome. Only drawback is that a female villain might lead to a female hero at Batmans side.

    There are various tidbits on the Batman On Film blog, including:
    • Nolan wants to shoot the whole thing on IMAX film, is not keen on 3D at all;
    • Emily Blunt wants to be Catwoman;
    • Cillan Murphy has no idea whether the Scarecrow will be back.
    As for me: I still want to know what happened to Zsasz, since such an evil psychopath should not be at liberty in Gotham for so many years. :eek:

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.

    Dear God no. 10 years ago perhaps but in recent times Depp has turned into a light weight comedic actor who plays the same character over and over again.

    Don't let him anywhere near this movie. Most over-rated actor ever. :mad:

    No Johnny Depp, please please please! - his current 'performance' (there is like one performance, barring exceptions like Public Enemies) would in no way fit within the world the two Nolans have created. It would be a disaster if he's allowed to camp it up.

    I don't know who I'd like to be a Joker. Heath Ledger was a totally random choice, but Nolan knew what he was doing for sure.

    Id like to see what they'd do with a penguin character now.

    Also, Anarky would be a good character, a kind of an inbetweener. Dont think hes ever been in any of the movies.

    Hmm...Anarky is a bit to much like V from V For Vendetta.


    The Joker should return in some way, certainly n Nolan verse anyhow, hell even The Joker alludes to it in his last scene in The Dark Knight.

    I'm sure Nolan already has a god idea who he'd cast (if The Joker were to return) but my picks would be Joseph Gordon Levitt, Garrett Hedlund, or Daniel Day Lewis.

    As for other villains...Hugo Strange, Deadshot or Zzasz could be done well.

    So stoked for this! Cannot Wait!

    I'd love to see Daniel Day Lewis play the joker, An actor of his caliber would be such a pleasure to see as the Joker.

    Oh gods, please, no.

    DDL is a fine actor but he's already done his Joker turn in Gangs of New York. I don't think he'd fit into Nolan's Gotham, tbh

    Good choice :)

    What other villains would you all like to see?

    Sticking to Nolans 'Realistic world' I have only a few. Penguin, Riddler, Catwoman ( please no! ) and Harley Quinn. I'd love to see the Riddler in the next one, played well this time!

    I picked The Joker to return with Hugo Strange,Deadshot, or maybe a return from Zzasz.
