Colin Farrell Is In Talks To Play The Penguin In “The Batman”
It’s time for your bi-weekly The Batman update! When we last caught up with the conversations from inside The Batman casting room, we learned that Robert Pattinson’s Batman wasn’t going to be facing off against a sardonic stoner version of The Penguin (aka Jonah Hill was out). Paul Dano was confirmed as The Riddler, Zoe Kravitz is Catwoman, and Jeffrey Wright is Commissioner Gordon. Now it looks like Colin Farrell is The Penguin.
Jonah Hill Won’t Be In “The Batman” After All (UPDATE: But Paul Dano Will)
Josh Gad just ran full-tilt to his phone and frantically called his agent, screaming “ME ME ME, I’LL DO IT!” when he read that the role of The Penguin in The Batman was back up for grabs. Because Jonah Hill is no longer going to play The Penguin or The Riddler opposite Robert Pattinson as Batman.
Zoe Kravitz Is The New Catwoman
Seen above making the same “unbothered but keeping it sexy” face your cat makes while watching you get the heaves as you clean up the diarrhea it shat on the dining room rug for not greeting it the millisecond you got home, Zoe Kravitz will be the Catwoman to Robert Pattinson’s angsty, rich hipster millennial Batman in Matt Reeves‘ The Batman. When everyone found out that Catwoman would probably be in The Batman, there was a rumor that Vanessa Hudgens got the role (I mean, anybody who watched Rent Live knows that Vanessa can sound like a cat in heat getting viciously murdered), and then it was rumored that Matt Reeves was looking for a Zoe Kravitz-type (which is Hollywood for young, hot, and black). And now it looks like Matt Reeves got the ultimate Zoe Kravitz-type because he got Zoe Kravitz herself. And I think Sean Young just got the Guinness World Record for being the biggest robbery victim in history because she was ROBBED yet again!
Lupita Nyong’o Is Reportedly One Of The Names Being Considered To Play Catwoman In “The Batman”
So it looks like we can go ahead and push that rumor of a singing, dancing Catwoman out of the way. Because there’s a new list of possible Catwomans, and Vanessa Hudgens’ name isn’t on it. According to GeeksWorldwide, Warner Bros. has a shortlist of actresses they’re looking at to play Catwoman in The Batman, aka the Robert Pattinson Batman movie.
Jonah Hill And Jeffrey Wright Might Be Joining Robert Pattinson’s “Batman” Movie
We’re slowly finding out more about Robert Pattinson’s Batman movie, a project that sounds like a multi-episode second-season arc of an Entourage reboot, but is very, very real. The remaining Twihards out there are still going to have to wait to see if Kristen Stewart shows up as Bruce Wayne’s unimpressed friend who rolls her eyes and jokes that his secret underground batcave is “so basic.” But thanks to Deadline, we know who is rumored to appear in The Batman as the main villain and Commissioner Gordon.
Young People Are Into The Idea Of RBattz
The Hollywood Reporter says that not everyone is mad about Robert Pattinson being cast as Batman in The Batman. It was announced he got the role and like all things on the internet these days, people were divided. Well it seems like Batman-devotees who found Robert to be too much of a teeny-bopper really underestimated the sway that same teeny-bopper community has over the casting decisions of Hollywood movies, because it seems that the youth are huge supporters of The RBattz. a
