movies/tv I saw this coming. Mark Hamill to voice Joker again in Batman: The Killing Joke

For those of you who don't know, Mark Hamill has been known to voice the Joker on Batman: The Animated Series, along with Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City and Batman: Arkham Knight.  He also recently reprised his role of Luke Skywalker on Star Wars: Episode 7.

 

But, in what I saw coming a mile away, Mark Hamill will indeed return to voice the Joker on the upcoming Batman: The Killing Joke movie.

 

 


Collider is reporting that Hamill has already recorded his lines for Batman: The Killing Joke, with this news coming not long after Hamill said he would love to voice Joker in the film (meaning: his wish had already come true). He also had the opportunity to reprise the role in the Arkham video game franchise and he played an especially noteworthy role in Arkham Knight. (We won’t reveal how.) Meanwhile, Kevin Conroy, the unforgettable voice of the Dark Knight in Batman: The Animated Series, says he would love to voice Batman in Killing Joke, having told ComicBook.com that he would “do it in a heartbeat” and that he loves working with Hamill.

 

Sam Liu will direct and Bruce Timm will serve as an executive producer on the animated Killing Joke, which reportedly starts with a 15 minute prologue. Obviously, the animated movie will be based on Alan Moore and Brian Bolland’s 1988 Batman: The Killing Joke comic. That story has long been praised for the way it offers insight into Joker (one of Batman’s deadliest foes) and its infamous subplot about Barbara Gordon – who, for some time, was Oracle in the DC comic universe, before she returned as Batgirl after the New 52 DC Comics reboot.

I'm glad we'll be hearing Mark Hamill as the Joker again in this animated film(I hope I see him again at next year's Comic-Con at this panel).  But I also hope to see Kevin Conroy as Batman again.  That guy still knows how to nail it as the Dark Knight.
