LEGO BATMAN Movie Casts 'The Joker' And It's Definitely Not Who You're Expecting

When it comes to a voice actor for The Joker, there's one person who pretty much everyone agrees is perfect for that role, and it's Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Mark Hamill. He won't be playing the character in LEGO Batman though, but you can find out who will be right here...

The Hollywood Reporter reveals that Zach Galifianakis is in final talks to bring a brick version of the Clown Prince of Crime to life in Warner Bros.' LEGO Batman movie. With Will Arnett reprising the role of the Caped Crusader from The LEGO Movie, it's clear that they're going for comedic actors when it comes to building this world as Michael Cera was recently chosen by WB to play Robin.

Galifianakis is an interesting choice for The Joker though, but as he's no stranger to playing somewhat unhinged characters, he should fit right in here. The movie is being produced by Dan Lin, Roy Lee, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, while Chris McKay is directing from a script by Seth Grahame-Smith. Are you looking forward to the LEGO Batman movie? Let us know below...

Didn't Aubrey Plaza say she wanted to play Catwoman?
Now this is the perfect and only way she can

She did. And she'd be a solid choice.

Aubrey Plaza as Abigail Brand (assuming she's in CAPTAIN MARVEL; she's going to be in the new Captain Marvel comic series).

I want to see a live action movie with this cast. Obviously its already Uncle Job and George Michael, but still.

How funny would it be if Zach becomes the new standard voice of Joker? That would be crazy.

After Arkham Knight, Hamil feels really over-done to me. He was good enough but there are much better versions imo.

Well he does kind of look like a younger fat bearded Hamill.

This is an interesting cast. I could definitely see a live action comedy with is cast.

Hamill is the definitive voice of Joker, although I think Troy Baker does a pretty good job as well (Even tho he is simply mimicking Hamill's)....interested to see how the Zach Joker plays out.

David Cross would be better suited as Riddler.

So is he cast as the headline states or in final talks as the body of the article states?

Kevin Michael Richardson's Joker is so underrated.
