While all eyes are on the upcoming Joker from Todd Phillips, some more news from Matt Reeeves’ The Batman has surfaced. Earlier today it was reported that Westworld’s Jeffrey Wright is in talks to play Commissioner Gordon in the upcoming latest iteration of the Caped Crusader.According to The Hollywood Reporter, Oscar-nominee Jonah Hill is in talks for one of the many villains to appear in the film.
THR says talks are moving slowly due to the two sides not being able to decide which role Hill would play, but Riddler an the Penguin aresuppsedly part of the discussions, and when I first read this headline those are the two that immediately came to mind.

I am all for this as I think Hill could pull off either role, but I would be more interested in seeing his take on the Penguin, and I can’t wait till BossLogic makes up an image showing up what a Jonah Hill Penguin might look like. Today’s news is also comforting to us fans as we finally see the film moving forward consistently now, at a normal pace for a big budget film, which is much different from the uncertain path it took getting to this point.
The Batman soars into theaters June 25, 2021.
