2. Adrien Brody
Adrien Brody is an American actor who is known for his acclaimed performance in Roman Polanski’s The Pianist (2002). He was considered to play the role of Joker in The Dark Knight, but the role landed in the hands of Heath Ledger, who was massively praised in the movie.
In a report by We Got This Covered, Brody said: “I would do it if I feel I can contribute something valuable and that the role would be interesting to me,” Brody said. “To me, the villains are way fun! But [studios] don’t offer me those roles. If there is an opportunity to do something like that and play a comic book hero or villain, that’s not something I’m fundamentally opposed to.”
