One Batman movie could have had Michael Jackson as one of its villains, as the King of Pop lobbied hard to get that role, but was turned down.
As one of the most popular and beloved comic book characters, Batman has been adapted to the big screen various times, with some projects more successful than others, so it’s not surprising that various artists show interest in being part of one of the Dark Knight’s movies, and among them was Michael Jackson, who wanted to play a specific character.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Caped Crusader returned to the big screen in 1989 in Tim Burton’s Batman, which was followed by a sequel, Batman Returns, three years later.
In an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times back in 2003, Joel Schumacher revealed that Michael Jackson had lobbied hard for the role, but he was turned down before Jim Carrey was cast. This is not the only story about Michael Jackson pursuing a role and being very passionate about it, as he also wanted to play Edward Scissorhands in Tim Burton’s movie of the same name, but he was also turned down.
Other Actors Who Almost Played The Riddler In Batman Forever Of course, Michael Jackson wasn’t the only one who was turned down during the casting process for Batman Forever’s Riddler. Names like Brad Dourif, Kelsey Grammer, Phil Hartman, and Matthew Broderick have been said to have been considered to play The Riddler, but there’s no confirmation on these. A confirmed actor who was in talks to play The Riddler at one point was Robin Williams, with John Malkovich also competing for the role.
