Eddie Murphy Rumored to Play The Riddler in Next Batman Movie
The Sun is reporting that Eddie Murphy has signed on to play The Riddler in the latest installment of the Batman movie franchise. Oh, hell noooo! Is there any truth to the Eddie Murphy/The Riddler rumor?
It seems a stretch that Batman director Christopher Nolan would even consider Eddie Murphy for one of his fine films… but we’ll see how this one plays out.
The Sun reports that Eddie Murphy will play The Riddler in the newest Batman sequel, using the working title “Gotham,” and set for a 2010 release.
Other Batman casting rumors include Shia LaBeouf as Rob and Rachel Weisz as Catwoman.
