ADRIEN BRODY AS THE JOKER ? ? ?

In USA Today, ADRIEN BRODY said that he loved "BATMAN BEGINS" and hopes to be considered for the role of THE JOKER in a Batman sequel. "I would love to play The Joker. I think he would be deformed and creepier." Brody's competition, apparently, includes Lachy Hulme (Matrix Reloaded) and Paul Bettany (Firewall, Wimbledon) Hmmm, interesting. I think Brody could make a good Joker. He has the look, build and acting abilities.

In related news, there's a rumor going around that JOSH LUCAS (Hulk, Stealth, Glory Road) may be up for the role of HARVEY DENT. A "JIMSMASH!!!" is cocked and loaded..... but I'm going to think about it for awhile first. . .
