Update: LOL, AICN has been “pwned” again. This is a fake, too. See the link in the comments below. The worst part is that the SAME guy sent in both recent images. ![]()

Boy, AICN just keeps stepping in it lately. The released a photoshopped pic of Heath Ledger from a supposedly reliable source that was supposed to be The Joker from the upcoming Batman Begins sequel, The Dark Knight.

Right on the heels of that they released another image that looks much more like it could be the real thing (shown above on the left). I think they need to lay low for a while in regards to trying to get unofficial scoops. Faulty info is hurting their reputation.
Anyway, the buzz right now is that if the image above is legit, it looks an awful like the makeup that Brandon Lee had when he portrayed The Crow. That’s unfortunate, but I have to say that I think what’s shown above really fits the character of The Joker and judged on it’s own looks pretty darn good.

Great comparison; AICN even says it looks like the guy from ICHI THE KILLER (never saw the movie, but I’ve seen the pic and it looks similar).
Also, as I was saying over at the Invincibleironman.com forums, on the one hand I dig the whole psychotic thing that he’d create the look himself with a blade, putting a new spin on the character. But I still like the falling-into-a-vat-of-chemicals original story.
Regardless, I’m not nervous–BATMAN BEGINS is the BEST comic book movie EVER!

Yeah, regardless of what spin Nolan puts on it, I’m confident it will be well done.

I am anxious to see his “joker grin.” that may really sell the look. in this pic, he is just too calm.
Oh, sure… the picture above is really the worst possible. Straight-on, no expression or context.

I guess its a fake. That sure was “Cool News.”

Dude… NICE find!
Vic
So it turns out to be a hoax. Fooled me.
The guy definitely does nice work. This seems to be turning into more of an issue with so many images online and folks who are decent at ’shopping images.

Photoshoppers are just getting too good. I’m just glad I wasn’t duped into believing it when I saw it.
The dark knite was a really good movie… but i can’t find a picture of the “Joker” in his nurse outfit. :/ Can you help me??
:D And I wish he didn’t die :p
what’s the irony in this? both passing during the making of their films. so sad.
