Last week it seemed to be that, while the world – including Mark Hamill – wanted Hamill to voice The Joker in the upcoming The Killing Joke animated movie, it was all still in doubt who would get the role.
Well it seems now that Hamill et al were playing it coy.
Collider are reporting that not only is Hamill is indeed the man for the job, but he has already recorded his lines: “sources reached out to us and confirmed that Hamill has already recorded his voice acting for the film, which is due out direct-to-video next year.”
This is awesome news! Now, if it’s true, can we get Tara Strong in as Barbara and Kevin Conroy as Batman, please? That would be great, thanks.
We always were but now we’re REALLY excited for this movie…
UPDATED: EW and Screenrant seem to be confirming the reports…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
