The villain lineup may be announced sooner than expected.
TEXT:
Pattinson's Batman will have a lot on his plate given the number of villains that are expected to appear in the movie. The Batman is currently putting its cast together and there has already been recent casting news, with Westworld's Jeffrey Wright in line to play Commissioner Gordon and Jonah Hill in talks for another role - believed to be either Riddler or Penguin. The movie is set to release in summer 2021, which means that filming is expected to begin in late 2019 or early 2020
According to Forbes, we can finally expect to hear some concrete casting news soon. The Batman is in the process of casting its major roles, with Catwoman, Riddler, Two-face and Penguin named as some of the main characters and "a host of other villains" expected to appear. According to this report, Hill is currently vacillating between the roles of Riddler and Penguin, with his representatives "negotiating with Warner about which is the ideal choice." Other than Hill and Wright, however, Warner Bros. has done a good job of keeping casting talks under wraps, which means that the upcoming casting announcements could have some exciting surprises in store.
