Batman returns once more: Christopher Nolan does it again!!!
DEKO:
Joker will not be re-cast... :( Read below:
Ever since The Dark Knight came out fanboys have been screaming how it's the best comic book movie to have ever been made. (It isn't.) One of the reasons they think this is Heath Ledger's performance as The Joker. After Heath pill popped his way into the clouds above, questions arose as to what would happen to the character. Would he be recast? Would he appear only in shadows at Arkham?
Obsessedwithfilm.com, who thinks they've stumbled upon the scoop of the century from reading an interview out of a magazine, noticed this in Empire's Nolan interview:
There is the ever-lurking question about villains: who will The Dark Knight tussle with this time... Could it possibly be a returning (and recast) Joker, pulling strings from Arkham, Lecter-style, Empire wonders?
"No", says Nolan emphatically and unhesitatingly. He resists elaborating simply because, quite understandably, he says, "I just don't feel comfortable talking about it".
Obsessedwithfilm also says:
So that's it, all the two year speculation on the ethics behind a potential re-casting of the late Heath Ledger in his Oscar winning, iconic role can be put to bed. THE JOKER WON'T APPEAR IN BATMAN 3. Presumably we have to imagine him for the time being as a mental patient locked up in Arkham Asylum.
Now, it's too early to actually say if The Joker will or will not appear in Batman 3. At least for now, Nolan is saying he won't recast the part. Meaning we won't actually see his face. But Hollywood is a strange and wonderous town. He could appear as a shadow locked up behind bars, his voice done by someone else. Who knows. Nolan isn't comfortable talking about it right now, but things can change. So if Joker is 100% gone from Bats 3, does this mean Bane is the lone bad guy? Who else could be the bad guy? I don't see The Riddler or Penguin as Nolan type villains.

I wouldn't call any superhero or comic film better than DK, but I did like Begins and I though Sin City was just as good.
