From the encounter that the Riddler had with the mysterious character with whom he is locked up in Arkham, The Batman left us a clue at the end of the film to discover more information about this universe. Thanks to those who were solving the puzzles on the page, Warner Bros revealed a great deleted scene from the movie.
batman hit theaters more than three weeks ago and amazed and fascinated more than one. So much Robert Pattinson like the director, Matt Reevesreceived great compliments and praise for this new movie that brings a Batman in his first years as a “vigilante”. The end of the successful delivery left a link (www.rataalada.com) that, as the puzzles were solved, revealed material about the universe of this Batman. One of these was a large deleted scene from the joker from Barry Keoghan which left fans wanting more.
In one of the final scenes of the film, when the riddler is already in Arkham, we see that he is locked up next to another character, one whose name is not revealed or his face is not seen. However, we heard his voice and, some time later, Reeves confirmed that it was the same jokeror at least a version before he becomes the iconic villain of Batman.
In the deleted scene you posted Warner Bros, we see a meeting between the new jokerinterpreted by Barry Keoghanand Batman which lasts five minutes. The Joker is locked up in Arkham and BruceWayne in his costume and mask he goes to visit him to find out if the future villain can give him any clues about the identity of the riddler or at least know the perspective of the joker if. As a characteristic mark of the character, the Joker he “says goodbye” to the scene with a rather disturbing laugh and smile.
This interrogation gets darker as it reveals more details of the man’s face. joker, which is one of the scariest characterizations we’ve seen of the character. we can see a Joker disfigured and full of scars, very different from what we saw in previous versions. In addition, in his hair (what little he has) you can see some green streaks.
In the back and forth between the two, we discover that they met a year ago, since the Joker he asks Batman if he brought you a present for your anniversary. As well, Wayne She tells him that she wants to know how he thinks. riddlerto which the joker He tells: “You know exactly how he thinks. Have you read this file? You two have a lot in common. Masked adventures, even he is more honest than you.”
In the scene where we see the Riddle on Arkham talking with him Jokerthe latter mocks the riddler, although later he tells him that they can be friends, leaving in the minds of many viewers that we will see this duo again in the future. However, several fans wondered how the jokerfrom his cell in Arkham, knew about the crimes of the Riddle. Luckily, this deleted scene clears up that doubt.
It makes a lot of sense that Matt Reeves has decided to take her out of the final cut of batmansince it would have taken everyone’s attention and, at some point, perhaps even take center stage from the riddler from paul dano and the rest of the villains we see: Carmine Falcone (John Turturro) and Oswald Cobblepot/the Penguin (Colin Farrell).
Before the deleted scene came out, Reeves he had said that at some point he would release it, since it was great. “It was one of those things where, over the course of the movie, whatever that scene was doing, other scenes were doing, too, so we didn’t need it. But as a stand-alone scene, it’s very disturbing and creepy and great.”explained Reeves to TotalFilm.
As for how they looked Barry Keoghan to give life to this new joker, Reeves said: “I worked on it with Mike Marinowho did the makeup of Collin (Farrell). He is a genius. We did some things that were really based on Conrad Veidt and The Man Who Laughs. I started thinking, if we’re going to do another version of the JokerI don’t want to do what (Christopher) Nolan had done with the scars. And then of course there’s Jack Nicholson and the idea of chemicals. There are many classic versions.
The idea of this joker was born from mixing the aspect of John Merrick at The elephant Man and Conrad Veidt on the laughing man. “For me, what was interesting was doing the Elephant man. The idea of Conrad Veidt it was that he had some kind of congenital disease, and he could never stop smiling. well what if joker does he have some kind of disease from birth where he is marked by this horrible smile, and the world treated him in a certain way that created him? We had this nihilistic point of view that came with the fact that fate had played a trick on him ever since he was born. Meanwhile he Elephant man I had this beautiful soul inside joker he became this gothic horror figure.”
