With Robert Pattinson set to don the cape ‘n’ cowl in Matt Reeves’ The Batman, now comes word on two other names who look destined to join the picture.

Via Deadline, Westworld and Boardwalk Empire’s Jeffrey Wright is in talks to play Jim Gordon, while The Wolf of Wall Street’s Jonah Hill is up for one of two roles.

Where Hill is concerned, both he and Warner Brothers are keen to work together on The Batman – it’s just a case of what character the Superbad star will be playing. Seemingly, it’s a case of deciding whether Hill will play The Riddler or The Penguin. Supposedly director Matt Reeves has been keen to involve Hill as one of the film’s villains even before Pattinson was cast as the Dark Knight.

To date, the role of Commissioner James Gordon has been played in live-action by Neil Hamilton, Pat Hingle, Gary Oldman, and J.K. Simmons. As for the aforementioned pair of no-good villains, Frank Gorshin, Jim Carrey, and Cory Michael Smith have tackled Edward Nygma in live-action, while Burgess Meredith and Danny DeVito have played Oswald Cobblepott.

The Batman is due to start filming towards the turn of the year ahead of a June 25th, 2021 release.
