For his take on the Riddler, Keoghan said he was channelling his inner-Stanley Kubrick and referenced A Clockwork Orange by donning suspenders, a bowling hat and walking with a cane.“I just made it up. I wanted to make it Kubrick-y: symmetrical, the X on the back, the square doorframe, everything square.
I just wanted swag to come across. Swag and endearing,” Keoghan told Esquire. “It was just me giving my idea.
And then I’s like, ‘I’ma send this in!'”Four months after sending in the tape, the actor received a call from producer Dylan Clark. “The Batman wants you to play The Joker – but you cannot tell anyone,” his agent told him.Keoghan described his take on the Joker as “a bit charming and a bit hurt, a broken-down boy,” adding: “I wanted some sort of human in there behind the makeup. I want people to relate to him… [to know] this is a façade he puts on.”While a sequel to The Batman has officially been greenlit, Keoghan said last year that he hasn’t yet been asked to reprise his role as The Joker.
