Bale talks Joker

JoBloJoBlo

Now that I’ve finally gotten TRANSFORMERS out of the way (sweet Jesus it’s incredible), my new most anticipated film is THE DARK KNIGHT. And sure, part of that is down to how awesome I know Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman are, but a really big part of it is my curiousity as to how Heath Ledger does The Joker. His co-star and contender for greatest actor of his generation, Christian Bale had the following to say:

“I think I should let Heath give you the answer on all this …certainly I think that we dig a little more than the other movies did… We recognize, of course, they are cartoon characters, [but] we try to ground them in somewhat more reality than the other movies.”

Of course that’s the magic of Nolan’s BATMAN, the reality. I do hope Ledger plays The Joker at least a little bit cartoonish though.

God I can’t wait to see this flick.
