Adding Fuel to the Fire: Photos of Phillip Seymour Hoffman as The Penguin surface.
Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
Okay, let me just start by saying something VERY important: This is NOT a real photo. This is fake. Fake as fake can be. BUT it does look cool, so I’m posting it.What you’re looking at is a mock up of what Philip Seymour Hoffman COULD look like IF he played the Penguin in the new Batman movie. It’s not real at all. But it is interesting. What do you guys think? Would this design of the Penguin work in Nolan’s universe?

Y The Last Man Vol. 5In this final Deluxe Edition hardcover collecting Y #49-60, Yorick and Agent 355 prepare for their ultimate quest to reunite the last man with his lost love, while the person, people or thing behind the disaster that wiped out half of humanity is revealed. Then, Yorick Brown's long journey through an Earth populated only by women comes to its dramatic, unexpected conclusion.

Reminds me of Uncle Fester.
That’s exactly what it looks like. Definitely not interested in another Penguin movie, either way. Even if it’s a cooler comic-style Penguin movie.
I’m all for PSH playing The Penguin in the next Batman movie (in a minor mob boss role of course, not the main villain), but I really hate the look of that picture.
Fake!!! I mean there isn’t even a story let alone a script. So why would they be casting anyone in this. How many times does Nolan have to say that he has not started making this movie?
It says that it’s fake in the post ;)
I know it does, I’m just voicing my opinion. I’m not upset that this was posted, I’m upset it was made at all. If you want to try and make fake photos at least wait until the movie is officially getting made.
I assume it’s some Penguin fanboy’s attempt to “Woo” the audience/crew to his way of thinking of putting the Penguin in the movie or some such. I don’t particularly like the fake photos either.
Yeah I think the penguin should only be made with a minor role if any at all.
I think the picture is very underwhelming, but seing as its fan made thats pretty understandable, but as a guideline it’s much more believable than Devito’s.
Ya, I’m not digging this picture much. I mean if Nolan absolutely went the route of the penguin, I would be glad if he cast PSH. However, this looks more as if a Penguin that Burton would have if he made Batman Returns today. I think Nolan would go for a more businessman approach, but that’s just me
Personally I kinda like this fan poster I found

but again….that’s just me
Reminds me of Dick Cheney….why exactly aren’t we getting him to play the penguin?
OMG! It’s Voldemort’s uncle!
