Batman Rumor – Photo of Philip Seymour Hoffman as Penguin

A mock-up of Philip Seymour Hoffman as a Dark Knight-esque Penguin has fueled speculation and awk-awk noises. Meanwhile, Zack Snyder explains, once and for all, why his Bat-movie dreams won’t come true. – From io9.com

Earlier in the year the big, fake Batman 3 casting rumor going around was that Philip Seymour Hoffman would play the Penguin in Nolan’s next caped crusader sequel. Hoffman himself debunked it, saying that not only wasn’t he involved, he wasn’t really interested in being involved. Since then we’ve moved on to far less appealing fake Batman 3 rumors, like Cher as Catwoman. Yet as the year draws to a close, somewhere out there Warner Bros and Nolan may actually at last be thinking about moving on to the next Batman. I think that makes it a good time to revisit Hoffman. – From Cinema Blend
