The Batman: 10 Actors Who Could Play The Joker For Matt Reeves

1. Chris Evans

Captain America playing The Joker...surely not, right?

Well, why the heck not? Chris Evans (no relation to the aforementioned Luke) has moved on from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and impressed massively since then in both Defending Jacob and Rian Johnson's Knives Out. In the latter, the usually very likeable actor play a total a**hole, and giving him the opportunity to take on a villainous role like this could be extremely interesting.

Before playing Steve Rogers, Evans was massively underrated in Hollywood, and it would be nice to see him continue landing slightly more serious roles. While The Joker would be a return to the world of comic book for the actor, it's so different to anything he's done before that Evans really does stand the chance to blow everyone away with his take on this iconic Batman baddie.

Plus, if you've ever watched an interview with Evans where he cracks up, you'll know he's definitely got that Joker laugh mastered...
