The Joker Makes a Surprise Appearance in 'The Batman'
Deleted Scene Reveals Barry Keoghan as the Iconic Villain
Matt Reeves Confirms Joker's Cameo
In a shocking revelation, director Matt Reeves has confirmed that the character played by actor Barry Keoghan in the recently released 'The Batman' is indeed the Joker. An earlier scene between Robert Pattinson's Batman and the Riddler (Paul Dano) had hinted at the Joker's presence, but it was not until a deleted scene was released online that the truth was made clear.
In the 5-minute clip, Batman visits the Riddler in Arkham Asylum and asks about the Joker's involvement in the serial killings. The Riddler consoles Batman, revealing that the Joker is afraid of him. This confirms that the Joker is aware of Batman's existence and fears his powers.
Reeves has explained that the deleted scene was cut from the final film to maintain a more focused narrative. However, he believes that the Joker's presence in 'The Batman' universe is undeniable.
The inclusion of the Joker in 'The Batman' has sparked excitement among fans, as it suggests that the character could play a major role in future installments. Keoghan's portrayal of the Joker is said to be distinctive and unsettling, adding a new dimension to the iconic villain.
