[Outsiders]

According to Deadline, Narcos actor Brett Cullen will play the role of Thomas Wayne in Todd Phillip’s The Joker.  Cullen is taking on the role after Alec Baldwin passed because of scheduling conflicts.

Cullen's career has included a few comic-book related projects in which he played Barton Blaze, father of Nicolas Cage’s Johnny Blaze in the 2007 feature adaptation of Marvel’s Ghost Rider and as a congressman in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Rises. In 1981 Cullen also starred as Joe Dumming in an episode of CBS’ The Incredible Hulk.

I recognize the face, for sure... I can only hope that this movie surpasses my expectations. Which are very low, at the moment.

He looks very familiar to me but I looked him up and I don't recognize him from anything he has done. Maybe he has a twin. Nothing I'll lose sleep over.

Really curious how this will fit into DCEU. What about Jared Leto’s joker?

Am I the only one wanting more Batman in the Batman universe ?
