Making of Batman (1989) - The Joker - YouTube
I always assumed this was one of his first experiences with Batman. Interesting to hear him mention reading the comics as a kid. I think he genuinely enjoyed this movie, which supports the job he did. It lends credence to the old saying, "do something you love, and you'll never work a day in your life".
Personality-wise, I think he was born to play the role. The fact that he sells it so easily despite being short and chubby, the polar opposite of the Joker, reinforces that.![]()

I believe it is in development with DC Animated. They've done a very good job with their direct-to-DVD movies, and they've only been getting better.
