Eddie Murphy Denies Riddler Role, Vies for Egghead
June 10, 2009

During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien actor/comedian Eddie Murphy denied rumors that he may play the Riddler in an upcoming Batman film. He said that he believes Jim Carrey did a good job as the Riddler in Batman Forever. When asked which Batman villian he could see himself as Murphy responded with Egghead, a character created for the 1960’s Batman television series played by Vincent Price. Based on Murphy’s impression I think that’s an awesome idea.
Oh the world that could be.
