THE BATMAN Casting Seeks its Villain and WESTWORLD Star in Talks as Commissioner Gordon

The Hollywood Reporter exclusively reports THE BATMAN is looking to cast its villain as well as Commissioner Gordon roles.

THR says WESTWORLD actor Jeffrey Wright is in talks to join the film as the Commissioner, while the production is definitely seeking its villain role and actor Jonah Hill is in talks for that. THR did not state which villain will be facing off against actor Robert Pattinson's Batman.

However, Collider claims Hill is being courted for the role of The Riddler. Although, Hill could also be the Penguin since it has been rumored that the Penguin has a prominent role in the film.

THE BATMAN will release on June 25, 2021.
