Joseph Gordon-Levitt interested in playing The Riddler in Batman 3?

Here is some hot news from the pages of First Showing, which have managed to get their hands on a casting grid for Christopher Nolan‘s proposed third Batman movie – the sequel to the HUGE Warner Brothers hit The Dark Knight! it seems that one of Nolan’s Inception stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt is ‘interested in playing The Riddler in the film being referred to as simply ‘Batman 3’. Seems that we have confirmation of the villain as least.

We’d like to point out that this news should be considered confirmation that The Riddler is the villain in Batman 3 and less confirmation of the recent suggestions/rumors regarding Gordon-Levitt’s casting as the enigmatic villain. A casting grid is used in the industry to keep production companies, agencies, etc. in the loop on a project’s progress and the roles available for actors to potentially take.
