Heath Ledger to Play Joker in Next 'Batman'

Quote:

Heath Ledger will play The Joker in the sequel to last year's "Batman Begins," Warner Bros. studio announced. "The Dark Knight" is set to begin production next year.
Christian Bale again will play Batman. Christopher Nolan will repeat as director.
Ledger was nominated for a best-actor Oscar for his role as an anguished gay ranch hand in last year's "Brokeback Mountain."

"Our challenge in casting The Joker was to find an actor who is not just extraordinarily talented but fearless," Nolan said in the Warner Bros. statement issued Monday. "Watching Heath Ledger's interpretation of this iconic character taking on Christian Bale's Batman is going to be incredible."

I Liked Batman Begins. I Hope The Next One Will Be Just As Good. Thnx 4 The News.

Yeah, I thought there would be a sequel for Batman Begins since at the end he's told that Joker had come. I'm looking forward to the sequel and I hope it's better then Batman Begins.

Ledger will never be as good as Jack Nicholson. NEVER.

True he's no Nicholson but he might be pretty good. I'm interested.
