Following a piece of excellent fan art depicting actor and Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp as Batman villain the Joker, filmmaker Kevin Smith has now chimed in stating that he is very keen to see Depp take on the role in the upcoming DC movie, The Batman.
The Johnny Depp as Joker fan art comes from Death Streak Art on Instagram.
For the time being, Warner Bros. has put the production of The Batman on hold due to growing concerns over the coronavirus outbreak.
As to whether the character will show up in The Batman, this seems very unlikely due to the number of villains that the movie already plans to introduce.
