Still, I think Adrien Brody could pull off the LOOK even better, and absolutely look like the Joker is supposed to, without much effort, he's got the slimness, the long face, the sharp nose kinda thing...apparently he put his name foward to play the role, but I dunno...is the Ledger thing confirmed yet?

Im not 100% sure if it's confirmed, but every site that Ive looked at seems to say so...Im assuming that it is.
I Brody would
look the part alot better than Ledger for sure (Hell, he even looks the part without makeup), but beyond that I cant see him doing very well. He's a talented actor but I just cant see him i this kind of role. Even though I havent seen him in very much, it doesnt seem like Ledger would have to strain too hard to pull of the whole psycho bit.
Anyway, we'll see in '08. Really, I'm just excited that my favourite villain is getting back on screen:D
