Heath Ledgers portrayal of The Joker was amazing. Words cannot do justice to how menacing and original his take on the Clown Prince of Crime was. Any future version of The Joker would have to be considerably different to Ledgers final performance. In Christopher Nolans universe everything was based in reality. The DC Cinematic Universe already has an alien superhero who has levelled Metropolis in his first film. Wonder Woman, the Amazonian princess, is certainly going to be in the film, so whos to say that a version of the Joker with bleached skin couldnt fit in that universe? Heath Ledgers joker will remain a feat of cinematic genius, but there are countless ways to redesign the character to fit in this new universe. The Joker no longer needs scars, he could be bleached or use lots of makeup. Anything goes in DCs latest venture. Baker has the ability to play this type of character extremely well; he wouldnt have to be as gruesome and violent as the version in the Dark Knight. He could play a far more theatrical Joker who is looking for a laugh rather than sheer anarchy. This leads us onto our next point.
