Both of these are so confusing. So you have Serkis attached, but not casting him as Penguin, a role that he'd be perfect for ... instead casting him in perhaps the least Andy Serkis role imaginable (maybe that's the point?) and courting actors for the Penguin role who bear no similarity to the character's famous likeness. "Subversive" indeed. Also, apparently there are rumors about McConaughey being cast as Dent?? Seems like it hasn't been confirmed by any legit sources so I don't believe it but idk. This cast just gets more and more random

I really don't like Farrell for this. Serkis, though, could be really good, even though I was hoping for Charles Dance.

This cast just gets more and more random I hope that McConaughey rumor is real, so Reeves can just have him go full McConaughey as Dent. "Alright, alright, alright your honor!" "JKLB. Just keep living Batman." "Job security is what I about being a District Attorney. I keep putting these scumbags away, and the revolving door keeps letting them out." "Hook 'Em Gotham City Longhorns."

I'm super down with both Farrell and Serkis. Pattinson and Serkis will have excellent chemistry.

This is really shaping up nicely (casting wise) All this time I didn't even think of Serkis in the Alfred role. Dude is gonna kill it. Also, the Colin Farell casting is aces. Really excited for this.

This will be the first time that Alfred is more muscular than Batman.

Farrel as Penguin and Serkis as Alfred? Okay, this is getting weird.

Farrel will be wasted as the Penguin I guess and Serkis doesn't strike me as Alfred.

In Eisenberg's defense, he could've played a good Lex Luthor if Snyder had let him play the part straight, as it usually is: a stoic, serious bald guy. But Snyder wanted Lex Luthor to be Jared Leto's Joker but with money. No one could've saved that part.
Re: Farrel and Serkins, that's good casting. After that whole Jonah Hill shitshow, I was worried about casting for this. I think Farrel is a good, outside the box choice and will probably pay off. Serkins, well... it's not like you can really screw up playing Alfred. He just doesn't have that "senior british gentleman" aura that is pretty much Alfred.

I’m basically picturing Serkis’ character from The Prestige.

Whether fans approve/disapprove of the casting decisions so far, this is the cast. I am looking forward to it though at the same time, I will remain skeptical.

Still can't picture Serkis as Alfred. Weird choice.

This is a lot of villains. Aren't people saying Riddler's going to be in it too?

This is a lot of villains. Aren't people saying Riddler's going to be in it too? Rumor has it that this film will be heavily influenced by the twelve-issue comic series "The Long Halloween". In that story a serial killer is on the loose and Batman's investigation of the crimes leads him to cross paths with various members of his Rogues Gallery (usually a different villain per issue). Some of these villains provide clues, others are suspects, others are there to merely cause chaos and conflict along the way. I assume this film will utilize its felonious ensemble accordingly. Personally I'm thrilled that we finally seem to be getting a Batman narrative that doesn't conform to the "Batman vs Villain of the Week" mold of every previous film in the canon.
