While there have been several portrayals of the character by different actors, this is a major question among fans. Jared Leto and Joaquin Phoenix are the two actors who are known for their portrayal of the villain. But will they be back or Gunn will hire someone else? Fans think Vecna portrayed by Jamie Campbell Bower will nail the character of Joker too. While others think of Willem Dafoe, Cary Elwes, and even Johnny Depp as fitting for the character.
Now that we know Batman is going to be a little older, maybe we can FINALLY see Willem Dafoe as Joker. He’s been my choice ever since I saw him as Green Goblin for the first time. pic.twitter.com/3KGVCwYPWI
