If Depp is going to play any character in the Batman universe, it has to be the Penguin. Depp is an amazing actor who is not afraid to cover himself in make-up. If they go towards a deformed guy like they did in Batman Returns than I know that the only other person who would be able to play the penguin would be Gary Oldman, but he is already busy. Then again, many actors have played multiple roles in a single movie before and I think Oldman can more than pull it off. If catwoman is the next villan than I think that they would have to go for an unknown actor. Catwoman is such a well known charactor (although not really a villan in the traditional sense) that a big actor would just distract us from the charactor itself. Which is why I think Heath worked out so well. While he was a known actor he was not a huge actor and, as I have said in another post, you could even recognize him. Not his voice, not his face, not his manerisms. He was the Joker. That being said, they almost have to bring him back (the joker I mean). He did not die, plus he opens the door to other characters (namely Harley Quinn). They also have two choices for the next villan, as far as I am concerned. They can either bring in the Riddler, or the Penguin. The Riddler would be a kind of copy cat of the Joker, throw Batman off by playing with mind. Pushing him closer to the edge that the Joker showed him. The penguin on the other hand would be a criminal mastermind who is moving in in order to fill the void of the missing organized crime rings. From what I understand of the new Penguin (the old one being from Batman Returns) he is an arms dealer? He would be supplying low level thugs with super powerful weapons. All of this is just specualtion of course as I know next to nothing about the new comics.
