RUMOR MILL: Batman, Indy 4 and Watchmen

Okay, there are just way too many rumors for a Monday out there so instead of tackling them all in individual articles I felt I would give you the whole shebang at once, especially since if you are interested in one of these rumors I think you will be interested in all of them.

FilmIck is reporting that Hall will play Edward Nygma, a role played by Jim Carrey in Batman Forever, a character that becomes The Riddler. This would lead any Bat-fan to assume that Christopher Nolan may already be setting up the third film in the franchise to have Aaron Eckhart change into Two-Face and team with The Riddler, much in the way they did in Batman Forever, but I am assuming it will be far less cheesy.

The scoop also talks a bit about private detective Jason Bard who is now a drug addict and is selling the same type of chemicals that gave Scarecrow his powers in Batman Begins. Does this mean Scarecrow will be back or just referred to? Who knows?

Our next scoop comes from Ain’t It Cool News as they received a rumor that Jim Broadbent has been cast in Indiana Jones IV as a Marcus Brody-like character. This comes on top of another rumor that when John Hurt was added to the cast he was actually cast as Albert Einstein (source).

Now, our next step takes us over to Zack Snyder’s Watchmen, which seems to have everyone in Hollywood vying for a role. Already today I posted an article concerning the addition of Jackie Earle Haley to the cast as Rorchach. Well, now new casting rumors have come out of Ain’t It Cool News.

So there you have it. Is that enough for you? If not Michael Chiklis is talking about a possible movie based on “The Shield” over here.
