re: 'The Batman' Casting: Sarsgaard is not Harvey Dent - He's a New Character

I'd have Devito reprise his role as Penguin.

Andy Serkis as Alfred

Colin farrell for Penguin

Farrells an awesome actor, so I like the choice. I think everyone has an image of the Penguin being a fat dude, like Devito was. I think this will be more of a mobster character.

Starting to fall more in line with the Robin Lord Taylor version of the Penguin (Gotham)

It's interesting how diversity really just means black people. Where's all the Asians, Hispanics, Indians??

Right now we've got three white actors (if Serkis is in), possibly four (if Farrell is in) and three black actors.

So if Gotham resembles New York City:

White: 42.78%
Black or African American: 24.32%
Other race: 15.12%
Asian: 14.00%
Two or more races: 3.33%
Native American: 0.40%
Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander: 0.05%
27% is Hispanic (made up of whites and blacks and mixed).

And we put Kravitz in the "Two or more races"...

We need to add one Asian, one "Other race" and one half-Asian-half-"Other-race".

And two or three need to have a Hispanic accent.

By my calculations it will be a half-Asian-half-American-Indian with a Hispanic accent.
