There has been much buzz about the third installment of the Batman trilogy. Anne Hathaway has been cast as Selina Kyle (or as many as you know her, Catwoman), and Tom Hardy as the juggernaut of Gotham, Bane. Well, it would seem as though Christopher Nolan reached into the talent found in Inception, and is heavily favoring Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Yes, there was several buzz about Gordon-Levitt possibly playing The Riddler late last year, which was immediately debunked by the Batman camp. As for which infamous Gotham city character he may be playing, that hasn’t been revealed just yet. Who would you guys like to see him play?

The Joker.. Christ people. He already resembles Heath Ledger nevermind in make-up. Joker ain’t dead so somebody’s gotta play him. Might as well be Levitt. Scratch that, it has to be. Im so sure he’s the best man for the job that casting anyone else would ruin the series for me.

MR. FREEZE!! i agree he should be the joker but i dunno man.. that guy from the american version of the tv show the office called creed? ive seen him dressed as heath ledger/the joker and he looked just like the real heath ledger/joker! so unless hes gonna look the spitting image then i say do mr. freeze man.
but how about this for an idea am just throwing this out there. and people can mouth off all they want at me cause am just gonna say off subject right now that i am a batman fan but am not a mega fan so if i havnt got my facts right or w.e then just let me know..
Liver Yuill
anyway as i was saying.. the original batman movie had robin, catwoman, the riddler and even the penguin!

and make this sodding actuwel dark man the dark night kicked ass man it needs to be like that and make more gadgets make it the best damn dark batman film ever!

Uuum Bane and Catwoman are already two villains (which all the batman movies have) so he should just play as Robin. This is probally the last batman film for awhile so why not have Robin in it. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has already been a side-kick in Inception so why not have him be one in Dark Knight Rises. As much as id personally like to see him as the Joker to many stubborn Joker fans would critesize Josephs every move, and Mr.freeze is bald and old, last time Joseph played a bald old guy was in GI Joe……we all know how that turned out.

I doubt that they will be bringing in Robin, especially since the first Robin, Dick Grayson, was a kid when Batman first met him. I think they can really go anywhere, especially since Christopher Nolan has no problem making up characters (Rachel Dawes). I think he has mentioned that he didn’t want to go TOO cartooney (like the Penguin and Mr. Freeze). And out of respect to Heath Ledger, it’s pretty easy to eliminate the Joker altogether
GOD
With two villains already cast, it makes no sense that there would be a third. Look at what happened to Spiderman 3 when they went overboard and cast three villains.
Dick Grayson is actually a character that I’d love to see in Nolan’s style, and I’m not even much of a fan of anything DC. But as someone mentioned that Dick was a kid when he became Robin and that Levitt is an adult, why not just make him Nightwing immediately and bypass all the problems of trying to make his Robin costume look as dark and gritty as everything else in the movies have been?
It could make sense that Nightwing has been inspired by Batman and made himself a rough costume and is out there fighting crime when Batman comes across him and, surprisingly enough to Batman, is doing a really good job with his limited equipment. Batman, now being a pariah to the citisens of Gotham, has been trying to find a way to make Batman a trusted icon again and sees Nightwing as a possible way to do this and, not wanting this guy to unavoidably eventually end up dead by a gunshot wound by just letting him do his own thing, he takes him as his student and becomes a mentor/father figure for Nightwing.
That could work, couldn’t it?

I think that joseph gordon levitt should play the riddler in the dark knight rises.
Angela Min
He will be playing Alberto Falcone, as we have just posted here: http://igxpro.net/2011/03/27/joseph-gordon-levitt-to-play-alberto-falcone/
coolio
would make a good robin
reptiletc
im wanting them to do a little more cg work with the villian! maybe a little killer croc or mr freeze!
josh
no Robin as since Chris odonall was the best looking of the time it be Zach efron , shi lebouf one of those teen idols any way i think robin should be played by Zachary Levi of chuck fame would be a good robin or Dick
josh

He’ll be playing Alberto Falcone, the son of the mobster the Two-Face supposedly killed in The Dark Knight and also known as The Holiday Killer.
He would have made an amazing riddler know doubt but with Bane, Catwoman and Ra’s Al Ghul’s daughter already cast Nolan needs to keep the mob side of this film covered. Remember they were always meant to b serious (non fantastical) versions of the Batman mythos, so the mob should still be Batman and Gordons biggest threat.

He could be cast as the T-1000 from The Terminator series and put in Batman 3.

Catwoman is NOT a villian!
She never has been, she is an antagonist sure but not a villian.
I anticipate as with most BM Movies she will be ‘the love interest’
Meaning there is room for another villian, especially since Bane lacks any sort of character by nature. They have to develop someone’s story…
Lots to choose from.
The Cluemaster could work well with him.
