āRobertā has the latest on which villain actor Cillian Murphy might play in Christopher Nolanās new Batman movie.
According to the Irish news website Unison.ie, Cillian Murphy will play the Scarecrow aka Dr. Jonathan Crane and start filming in the summer after a theater tour in Ireland. Hereās a clip from the article:
āAlthough already hailed as a major player, the 29-year-old Cork actor is set for worldwide fame when he appears as the villain in the next Batman movie. Beating Lord of the Rings superstar Viggo Mortensen to the role of Scarecrow, Murphy will begin filming one of the most expensive movies of the year after his Druid tour ends this summer.ā
I asked the Creative Artists Agency ,Viggo Mortensenās representatives, about Viggoās rumored role in Batman Intimidation. They completely denied that heās signed or involved. When I asked what his next movie is, they said: āHe has no new or next project.ā
Itās not unusual for representatives of actor/actresses to deny stories/rumors. This has been proven in the past numerous times. But weāll have to wait and see what WB announces in the coming weeks.
Thanks for the update!
