    "The Joker is too high profile. I can't do it, because everyone has an idea of how The Joker should sound."

    When I found out as a kid that Mark Hamill was the Joker, I then understood that he was much more than a guy on a screen and a true thespian.
    Age or no, with his voice he brought drama to a show that wanted drama and to entertain children, but his voice and his passion truly brought in more. Only as an adult can I see the difference between Luke and the Joker. As a kid I would never have believed, even if I knew it were true. This is the difference between a actor (Hamill), super star, and a star. Hamill is an actor, and truly one that has done his duty for those who wish to be entertained.

      +Toprak Yetkin İçhedefler why are y'all comparing voice actors to physical actors? It makes more sense to compare mark hamill to troy baker or john DiMaggio. But since you are, you can't say Heath was better than mark. Mark created a certain voice for the joker that everybody thinks of when reading the comics. He gave the joker life. But Heath is definitely my favorite physical actor that portrayed him.

    I have all the respect in the world for Mark Hamill for coming up with this voice. I'm sincerely glad he was able to end up making a name for himself in the industry after all, because he got a bum rap in Star Wars. I think most people forget that he was the hottest new up and coming actor when Star Wars came out. He gave up a role on a TV show that was supposed to catapult him into the spotlight in order to do the Star Wars movies, and then ended up overshadowed by Harrison Ford.
    Good for him that he found his place, after all, and with an outstanding voice for the best damn character--hero or villain--in the DC Universe.

Hamill completely captured the essence of the Joker's intellect, maniacal sense, playfulness, and insanity in his eulogy. Like many others, when I found out that Mark Hamill was the voice behind the Joker I was blown away. I have been sold ever since. To me Hamill set the bar for what it means to be the Clown Prince of Crime. Loved him even more in the Arkham Series.

    He should have been cast in "The Dark Knight". I've known for years he was the voice behind the Joker on the animated series, but it's one thing to know someone's the voice actor of an animated character and another to actually picture them physically in the roll. Without the make-up on he still becomes Joker not only through his voice but his expression and actions.

      @l.t.8634 11 років тому +2

      Pretty sure a big reason is because a live action Joker would require a certain build and when Hamill got the part, it was considerably after his Star Wars roles, by about 7 or 8 years. Now fast forward that to another decade or two after his Joker is already extremely well-established as the baseline, and he's long since been out of the running to play a slim and trim live action Joker.
      That's one of my best guesses. I fucking love this man.

      ***** He was only retired from Nolan's Dark Knight Trilogy, Christopher Nolan didn't feel comfortable recasting the part after Ledger's death, out of respect.

    Hamill will always be Joker's voice, and Ledger will always be his face. If you could combine them both, you'd have the original joker from the comics reborn perfectly.

    Hamill was great as the voice of the joker it was great how in one sentence he can go back and forth between various moods without skipping a beat. it was like he had a split personality and they all wanted to talk at the same time. I was surprised back in the day to learn it was him. he definitely owned the role.
