If I was making a Batman film, I'd have Leguizamo as The Joker


Never had a second thought about it. He could really deliver a very dark, very black, comedic turn as a sinister and dangerous Joker.

The man would be perfect for it.

He wouldn't make a bad riddler neither

I think we can all agree he's a living, breathing Batman villain.

I can picture him saying something funny laugh at his own joke then ask seriously why no one else is laughing.

Cesar Romero reborn eh? I like it!!!

Yeah, he's waiting for a good villain roll. He was brilliant in spawn. He's even great as the butler in Kick Ass

oh, yeah----he's good at playing crazy, whacked-out characters, so he'd be perfect as either the Joker or the Riddler. Either way, he'd be killing it in the role and stealing scenes left and right from everybody else,lol.


Anyway,here's an article about a recent article he wrote for the N.Y. times about Latinos and the racism they face in the film industry as well as outside of it. It's good, too----I read it and learned a couple of unknown (to me, anyway) historical facts myself:

I liked him in Spun. He is a great actor, very under rated
