Heath Ledger played the Joker in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy
- Settle down, folks. The Joker is not in Batman vs Superman - not yet.
- This picture of a playing card tweeted by cinematographer Larry Fong instantly caused a tidal wave of speculation about The Joker being the secret supervillain in the Man Of Steel sequel, now filming.
- As rumours swirled, some folks identified the picture as nothing more than a card trick, played to while away time on set:
- The case for The Joker includes math that adds up: two superheroes two supervillains = one blockbuster film. Henry Cavill's Superman already has Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor to battle. Who will Ben Affleck's Batman match wits against?
- Not The Joker, it seems. Or does it? Is Mr Fong's veiled denial simply misdirection?
- If it is, comic book fans - a film with Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor AND The Joker? OMG! - will have died and gone to an illustrated heaven.
