The Sun Online is reporting that Eddie Murphy will be the Riddler in the new Batman film! What happened to Johnny Depp??
Shia LaBeouf will be Robin!!!!!!!! And guess who snagged Catwman? Rachel Weisz!!How do you feel about these selections?! Shia and Rachel? I thought they said they weren't bringing back Robin... oh my goodness!
Just in case you were worried, Christian Bale and Michael Caine are set to return to reprise their respective roles.
Is this true?!
Story developing!!!

Weisz and Murphy all pathetic. Plus Batman 3 will suck.

This story is such a hoax. Don't you remember that Christian Bale himself said that the day they brought in Robin would be the day that he'd quit as Batman.
I doubt its true and all actors mentioned are bad choices. This last one will be like the rest third installments that will be bad.
Please I hope this story is true so people like Bubbalee's head will explode.
LOL!!! hopefully all over their computer screen.
Don't count Eddie out yet, he is very talented. Is a different approach to the Riddler, I think Eddie can pull it off.

I'm just happy that Catwoman won't be Angelina Jolie as reported in the past.
I believe the Rachel Weisz rumor but the Eddie Murphy one is fake.

Doubtful. I recently heard that it's Angelina as Harley Quinn and Johnny Depp as...um, I can't remember who. So who really knows. But I seriously doubt this news. Robin is not coming back.
Ew, Angelina as Harley Quinn?? Blashphemy!
Oops, blasphemy
All you haters just wait an see. Do you think I just do talking donkeys? Some of you are too young to remember me in Beverly Hills Cop, so your opinions mean nothin to me.
To be honest, no ones told me about Robin being in it, but who knows.
absolutely not true, Robin won't be introduce with still a younger Batman per director Christopher Nolan. With so many Eddie Murphy bombs, the studio execs would be idiots to cast him. He is way past his prime.
All bad choices! Riddler is not black, Eddie! Transformer kid sucks! Robin sucks! I heard they are thinking of bringing Maggie back as Rachael to return as catwoman..using one of her lives in the explosion.. who knows?!?
Shia Lebeouf is the worst actor ever. He has no business in this successful and well-produced series. And Eddie Murphy should go back to doing stand-up.

i like rachel weiz and eddie murphy...and for all you eddie haters ...dreamgirls anyone?? i thought he did great...he also won a golden globe for it
I remember when everyone doubted Heath Ledger as the Joker, and now I doubt anyone will EVER top that performance.

I think Rachel can pull it off. Madonna would have been a better choice...Hey, the gal has sex appeal...lol
IDK about Eddie being the Riddler. He's an okay actor but, they should have had Jim Carey reprise that role or Carrot Top; Just thinking of Carrot Top being in that role has me rotflmao.
Pardon my Swagger but, I'm a hard act to follow! - Pharoahs Angel™

I don't believe the story either, but if it is true: HATE the Eddie Murphy idea, LOVE the Rachel Weiss idea, and I'm EH on the Shia Le Bouf idea.
The Sun newspaper is well known in England for being a total rag. Take everything it reports with a huge pinch of salt; it very rarely reports the truth.
WOW they went and ruined it. RACHEL.....shouldve been angelina jolie....Robin.....is fine........EDDIE MURPHY>>>>>>WHAAAAAAAT.....JOHNNY wouldve been done SOOOOOOOOOOO much better!!!!!
