So, last night I watched Batman Forever, I always though Jim Carrey was great in this as The Riddler. It got me thinking of who could play the Riddler in the new Batman series... I actually started thinking of Dane Cook being a good Riddler. They had a comedian as the Riddler last time, and Mr. Brooks proved to me he can be a dramatic actor.
Thoughts?

I honestly couldn't say. I mean, just look at Ledger as Joker. 95% of the people said that Ledger would be horrible, but look how he turned out. Riddler could be anybody. But not Dane Cook. That name and Batman shouldn't be in the same sentence.

Ryan Reynolds gets my vote. He can do dry humor as well as outright funny. And a solid dramatic actor as well.

Johnny Depp would definitely be an interesting choice. Robin Williams could work. He was originally considered for Batman forever if I'm not mistaken. There are many different directions they could go. I think an even harder role to cast would be The Penguin.

I actually really like the idea of seeing Depp play Riddler. Especially since Nolan's would be a dark character most likely.

I think an even harder role to cast would be The Penguin. I can think of someone. He's not an actor, but he'll be looking for work soon enough. I'm surprised no one's suggested Matthew Lesko for the Riddler. Hell, I'm surprised I didn't suggest him.

Didn't they already cast Anthony Michael Hall as the Riddler for the new film, or was that just a rumor?

Someone did a great manipulation of Depp as Willy Wanka as The Riddler. All I ask from the Riddler character is no unitards.

I was literally 3 seconds from posting a picture just like that. Perfect Choice IMO Anyone how doesn't agree, go see The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford and tell me what you think after that.

Jason Lee might make a decent Riddler.
And before anyone tells me "But King, I thought you said Jason Lee would be a good Joker!" Yeah, well, maybe I just want to see Jason Lee in a Batman movie so he can get some of his skate cred back.

I really wanted to come up with some batcrap crazy celebrity that wouldn't work as The Riddler, and all I could think of was Adam Carolla for some reason. I'm losing my edge. I can't even begin to think of a real one, since the Riddler has so many different looks to base it off of.

Based on looks alone, David Hyde Pierce could be an interesting choice. Put on a little tumbler and he'd look something like the animated series Riddler.

I agree. Depp would make the character interesting.
