Zack Sharf Digital News Director Barry Keoghan‘s latest profile in Esquire magazine reveals that he spent $10 to make his viral self-tape audition for Matt Reeves’ “The Batman,” which introduced Robert Pattinson as the latest iteration of the Caped Crusader.
Keoghan sent in a tape to play the Riddler, though Paul Dano ended up getting the role. However, Keoghan impressed Reeves enough to land a surprise role that wasn’t on his radar: Joker. “I just made it up,” Keoghan told the magazine about his self-tape audition, in which he creepily exits an elevator in full Riddler costume and walks down a bland hallway in “Clockwork Orange” style. “I wanted to make it Kubrick-y: symmetrical, the X on the back, the square doorframe, everything square.
I just wanted swag to come across. Swag and endearing. It was just me giving my idea. And then I’s like, ‘I’ma send this in!'” After the film hit theaters, Warner Bros.
officially released an extended deleted scene from the film that confirmed Keoghan’s Joker casting. “I wanted to be Riddler,” Keoghan told GQ UK last year while debuting his self-tape audition online for the first time.
