In some very surprising casting news, Deadline reports that Mariah Carey is in talks to voice Commissioner Gordon in The Lego Batman Movie alongside Will Arnett (Batman), Michael Cera (Robin), Rosario Dawson (Batgirl), Ralph Feinnes (Alfred) and (probably) Zach Galifianakis as The Joker.
The site doesn't specify whether the character will be gender-swapped, or Carey will simply voice Gordon as a male - but considering the multi-sward-winning songstress is known for her high-pitched tones, that would seem like an odd move.
Chris McKay will direct The Lego Batman Movie, which has a script by author-screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith, and is set to hit theaters February 10, 2017. What are your thoughts on this?
UPDATE: Well this makes a lot more sense...
