With a new Batman movie in the works, how about a Riddler on screen that is as worthy as Heath Ledger’s Joker?
We did see Riddler Easter Eggs in Batman vs. Superman (above), so it’s at least confirmed the character is in the DCEU and also probable that Batman has had a run in or two with Edward Nygma.
So who should play the Riddler?
Well, how about Jake Gyllenhaal, who was actually David Goyer’s pick to play Batman for the Christopher Nolan films.
Cool fan art serviced of Gyllenhaal on Reddit which makes a pretty convincing case it could work:
