Way! I don't know what's worse: Murphy as the Riddler, or increasingly ubiquitous and irritating Labeouf as Robin??? I like Murphy okay, but just not seeing him as the Riddler. The only hope I can have is that Nolan would somehow make it serious and substantial. But Labeouf? And Robin???Tell me this is one of those early rumours that's nothing but vapour. Please. ------------ -- Original message ------------ -- From: "Justin Mohareb" <justinmohareb@ gmail.com> http://www.thesun. co.uk/sol/ homepage/ showbiz/bizarre/ article2048300. ece FUNNYMAN EDDIE MURPHY will play The Riddler in the next Batman movie, The Sun can reveal. The Beverly Hills Cop star, 47, has been signed up by British director CHRISTOPHER NOLAN to reprise the role played by JIM CARREY in 1995's Batman Forever. The surprise move follows speculation linking Pirates of the Caribbean star JOHNNY DEPP to the part. The film, set for a 2010 release, is being developed under the working title Gotham. Execs have also signed up rising Transformers star SHIA LABEOUF, 22, to play Robin. CHRISTIAN BALE will return as Bruce Wayne, while MICHAEL CAINE will again play Bruce's assistant Alfred. ************ ********* ******* I hope to Christ someone at the Sun had one too many pints. This is be yond bad comedy. Justin -- Read the Bitter Guide to the Bitter Guy. http://thebitterguy .livejournal. com
