Eddie Murphy will play the Riddler in the next Batman movie according to reports.
Murphy was tapped by British director Christopher Nolan to reprise the role last by Jim Carrey in Batman Forever in 1995.
Transformers star Shia LaBeouf is also said to have signed on to play Robin, with Rachel Weisz in the role of Catwoman.
The Sun, who broke the story noted that Johnny Depp had been rumored for the role. They also get credit for the very nice Eddie Murphy Riddler mashup above.

hahaha
such bullshit, whoever wrote this is just doing a gag, Nolan already said he didn't want catwoman or robin.
Whoever believes this should die.

lol i’d bet my life this is a gag
Nolan would NEVER have a Robin, he would NEVER cast Murphy as the Riddler, he would cast a, actor who could play a deep character, and i’m pretty damn sure nobody wants to see another catwoman

Well, this is more than likely false…just like the rumor of Rachael Weisz being cast as Cat Woman, we all know that role went to Anne Hathaway.
