Casting Batman III

If it was up to me to cast the third Batman movie based on my synopsis of the third film (See Post “Batman III: Nine Lives”) I would do so in the following way. For all of the characters who were not in previous films I listed multiple actors under that character in descending order of who I think would fit the role best:

Edward Nigma/The Riddler…Jude Law

James McAvoy

Ewan McGregor

Edward Norton

Johnny Depp

Quentin Tarantino

Selina Kyle/Catwoman…Rosario Dawson

Eva Mendes

Michelle Rodriguez

Jessica Alba

Lucy Lui

Angelina Jolie

Crispus Allen…Taye Diggs

Common

Jesse L. Martin

Lawrence Fishburne

Samuel L. Jackson

The Joker (Recast)…Josh Hartnett

Jake Gyllenhaal

Johnny Depp

And then all the same actors from the previous films:

Bruce Wayne/Batman…Christian Bale

Alfred Pennyworth...Sir Michael Caine

Commissioner Gordon…Gary Oldman

Lucius Fox…Morgan Freeman

Mayor of Gotham…Nestor Carbonell

Salvatore Maroni…Eric Roberts
