Speculation! Jim Carrey for Riddler again and Batman to appear in Arrow Season 6

While Arrow Season 6 is yet to be announced, CW will need to be ready to introduce Batman into the Arrowverse and have Riddler as the big bad reprised by another familiar face.

Arrow season 5 focuses on Oliver acting as Starling City's mayor while he is currently moving past the events from season 4 by having new recruits assembled to protect his city while dealing with those that don't trust him on his methods of sparing the worst of Starling City's criminals like Anarchy and are destined to ending crime and protecting the innocent people in it before anymore terrorist organizations show up to cause more problems like Damien Darhk, Slade Wilson and Ras' al Ghul have and Prometheus is sure to be the one leading the rival gang of vigilantes against Team Arrow but while we are still hoping that he will be Tommy Merlyn behind the mask resurrected sometime before the 5th season premier despite actor Colin Donnell's schedule conflicts because of how big an impact that Oliver had to have brought upon him that made him so desperate at wanting to kill the Green Arrow and not let anyone get in his way of doing it.

Now before CW makes any announcements for the TBA sixth season, it would be a great time by then to add Batman, his allies, enemies and his world into the Arrowverse and the villain that CW officials should use as the main antagonist whose scheme should be plot original enough to put into use is Edward Nashton/The Riddler and with Jim Carrey reprising his role from Batman Forever
Crazy Edward Nigma


Why? Because he totally nailed it as a wild funny psychopath of a narcissist for Batman Forever and since CW allowed Mark Hamill to reprise his role on the Flash as the same Trickster he played in the 90's CBS show, having Jim Carrey reprise his role as the main villain for Arrow Season 6 should help make the show much more successful on the ratings and much more entertaining with more wild humor and another familiar face. Plus he was a real laugh riot when acting whacky and loony as Nygma. Especially since he is obviously the reason Green Arrow actor Stephen Amell wants to play Riddler as Ben Affleck's Batman foe in the DCEU films since his cousin Robbie and his wife Italia Ricci were inspired by the Burtonverse Batman films and the stars that appeared in each of them like Nicole Kidman. Plus the Riddler made his debut in the DC comics as a Green Arrow villain before his role made him a more official Batman villain so having Riddler as the main villain in season 6 should also mark him as a more unique challenge for Team Arrow to take on.

The Crazy Riddler


Also having the Riddler as the big bad for season 6 would bring about a new plot dynamics and the potential debut of the DC comics #1 favorite superhero Batman

Batman for Arrow


One good reason why CW should introduce Batman into the Arrowverse despite not intending to and other than because of Riddler being more as the dark knight's official enemy is because of the easter egg references brought up by

Arrow-season-4-Felicity-Oracle


Felicity Smoak mentioning that the codename "Oracle" was already being used by another individual

2014-12-06_1407


and the words on the 2024 newspaper from the future saying "Waynetech/Queen INC Merges Complete" teasing his andBarbara Gordon's presence here in the Arrowverse so clearly there's no need for them to keep holding out any longer but just to make things easy for CW when including Batman and his allies in the franchise, CW will need to diversify half the amount of characters in both Earth One and Four and by differences in dopplegangers and here is how both Flash and Supergirl's worlds would feature them;

Earth 1: Bruce Wayne/Batman Barbara Gordon/Oracle Dick Grayson/Nightwing Jason Todd/Red Hood Damien Wayne/Robin Stephanie Brown/Batgirl Alfred Pennyworth

Earth 38: Terry Mcginnis/Batman Beyond Barbara Gordon/Batgirl Tim Drake/Red Robin Cassandra Cain/Black Bat

That's how CW should adapt the characters into the shows

Batman villains for Arrow season 6


Now for Batman and his allies on Earth 1 to fit in with the shows, he will need to appear in the second or third episode of Arrow season 6 where he and the Green Arrow meet for the first time and briefs them on the Riddler while both city diversified teams unite against the narcissist and other villains including Bane, Joker, Penguin, Two Face, Killer Croc, Scarecrow, Harley Quinn, and Clayface (Basil Carlo). Now if all are in favor of having CW make this happen please notify them on using everything from this article ASAP

I know your editorials are usually a bit high-flying (read:insane), but seriously this time you actually wrote this as a joke? Just trolling and laughs right...right?

No way would Carrey ever do a CW TV show.

Oh man ...this is his best one yet! I have made it quite clear that I would rather read a billion PR editorials than reading another "my top top 10 CBM's" or "This is why you didn't understand [insert recent poor performing movie here]," so this one was a [frick]ing treat. ...and honestly, this is one his bat shit ideas that I would not mind AT ALL actually happening. It won't for a MYRIAD logic reasons, but it would be kind of cool to see Carrey in the green again for CW.

WB isn't going to allow the CW to use their cash cow (Batman), and don't be surprised if Superman disappears from the shows when he returns to the big screen in Justice League.

Also, why would anyone want Jim Carry to return? He was awful. What people don't seem to realise (esp. non-comic readers) is that the Riddler is not some comedic goofball. He's one of Batman's most cunning and intellectual enemies.

In Batman Forever, the Riddler isn't even a genius criminal mastermind. He was just an average inventor who used a machine to steal other people's intelligence. That film was such a basturdisation...

You want to see the Riddler done right on film? Go watch the Saw movies. Those films had a better Riddler than the Batman films did.

@PredatorRising

Never be afraid to proofread and correct your article after publishing.

I agree with most others: finding the right Batman is nearly as challenging as finding the right Superman. I'm quite certain DC/WB/CW will not duplicate more of it's cinematic heroes. There is no benefit.

If you adapt Bats to the Arrowverse, suddenly, there are two Batmen. Ollie is this universe's Batman more so than he is THE Green Arrow.

And Jim Carrey's performance was mildly amusing at best. It's almost hard to tell because the writing was so terrible.
