(The character of the Joker, along with the plot world of "Batman," is one of the most difficult I've ever written.) Today at 12 o'clock temporarily 1 watch. I still have to think about it. The second update is uploaded before 12 o'clock in the morning. Thank you all for your support!)

Before Peng Yichen entered the world of the plot, he had never done such a thing, that is, to communicate with countless people in person, what kind of person he was going to play and what kind of state of mind he should have.

Because he entered the plot world, he was originally to experience the characters, and there was no need to do any psychological construction before entering.

But the character of the clown is indeed the most special one.

Peng Yichen didn't dare to enter the plot world at will, for fear that he would be completely dragged into the abyss of no return by this character.

Therefore, the day after the filming of "Three Billboards" ended, he went directly to Los Angeles to discuss with Nolan about the mental state and basic situation of the character of the Joker.

After all, even if the script of "The Dark Knight" was written by Nolan, he should be the one who knows the clown best.

In fact, long before the filming of "Batman: Time to War" started, Nolan wanted to invite Peng Yichen to star, and at that time Nolan actually thought about asking Peng Yicheng to play Batman Bruce Wayne.

Indeed, this British director is so bold that he actually wants an Asian to play Batman.

Of course, in the end, this proposal was rejected by both Robinoff and Peng Yichen of Warner Pictures.

Peng Yichen and Batman, this is indeed too incompatible.

Of course, Nolan quickly abandoned the idea.

Afterward. It was Peng Yichen who gave Nolan advice and invited Christian Bale to play Batman.

Then, it was the last time Nolan called Peng Yichen.

He directly told Peng Yichen on the phone that Batman is indeed not suitable for him, and if he wants to play it, he will still play the role of the clown, which will have more room to play.

Clown!

The most legendary and terrifying villain in DC Comics.

He is the most powerful enemy in Batman's life, but his strength is not in any superpowers, high technology, or powerful forces.

The most powerful thing about the Joker is that he is full of philosophical speculation and the purest darkness.

He is not a traditional bad person, and certainly not a good person, he is more like the normal rules and truth, goodness and beauty of the whole society, with a strict logical system for darkness and human nature.

In his previous life, Peng Yichen had specialized in studying and analyzing the role of the clown.

After all, at that time, "Batman: The Dark Knight" created countless records in world film history, setting up an insurmountable monument for all superhero movies.

Nolan endowed a comic book hero film with an unparalleled philosophical mind and a dark temperament that no one had ever done before.

Many of the details contained in the "Batman" trilogy are thought-provoking, the exploration of human nature, the discussion of justice, and the questioning of the so-called darkness, making "Batman: The Dark Knight" far beyond the scope of popcorn commercial films, and has become a great movie that can go down in history.

In this trilogy, the character of the Joker is undoubtedly the most haunting of all the characters.

The brilliance and charisma of this character often even overshadows Batman, the original protagonist.

It has amazed countless fans and critics.

Even in the long history of film, the Joker can occupy a place and become an immortal classic character on the silver screen.

And Heath Ledger became a legendary actor in Peng Yichen's previous life because he once played a clown!

Heath Ledger, the acting genius who amazed everyone, reached the peak of his acting career after playing the role of the Joker in his last life.

But at the same time, because of his rebellion and unruliness, he finally died young, like a bright meteor in the dark, shining on the entire night sky, and then it was fleeting.

Just before the release of "Batman: The Dark Knight", people found the young corpse in his New York apartment, which had stopped breathing.

The cause of his death was confirmed to be an overdose of prescription drugs and acute drug poisoning.

A peerless genius completely extinguished the fire of life in this way.

The charm and soul that Heath Ledger gave to the role of the Joker have become the peak of a comic book character's performance in the movie, and almost no one can surpass it.

Therefore, when Peng Yichen first heard Nolan and wanted to hand over the role of the clown to him, the fear of the darkness of the role itself and the expectation of the challenge of the role made him not even dare to take over the role at the first time.

This has never happened in the more than 8 years since he crossed over.

Because he is afraid of a role, he does not dare to accept the challenge, which is a very fatal thing for an actor like Peng Yichen.

It may even affect his acting career after that.

Therefore, he finally accepted Nolan's invitation, since fate allowed this "clown" to meet him, he decided to play this role with a richer and deeper effect than Heath Ledger, surpassing Heath Ledger's performance peak, and making his acting skills really improve to the realm he dreamed of.

For the sake of movies and performances, Peng Yichen has never been afraid of challenges, otherwise he would not have hit his limits again and again, dedicated superb performances again and again, and shot great movies one after another.

Even Peng Yichen loves challenges, and every experience in the world of the plot is the most risky adventure and challenge for him.

It was this challenge that allowed Peng Yichen to finally obtain today's status and identity, and it was this challenge that made him deeply and vividly feel the value of his survival in this world and feel that he was still alive.

The reason why Peng Yichen is in a hurry to learn more about the clown with Nolan.

I just hope that when I enter the world of the plot, I can have a better grasp of defeating the devil in the heart of the character of the Joker.

He wants to surpass the performance of Heath Ledger for a lifetime, and if he just continues to go deeper in the dark, there is no hope.

Because Heath Ledger has pushed the darkness in the Joker to the extreme.

Therefore, what Peng Yichen wants is to show the holiness and light of the clown.

Just like Tai Chi in Chinese civilization, the anode produces yin, and the yin pole produces yang.

The clown exists in this world, and it cannot be completely dark, because the solitary shadow does not last long.

But if he could do the darkest, most disorderly, and craziest thing in this world with the compassion of redeeming the world and saving mankind.

Such a person can make people even more creepy!

Therefore, Peng Yichen now not only wants to deal with being influenced and distorted by the Joker's thoughts after entering the plot world.

At the same time, he also has to deeply understand the soul of the clown, so as to get rid of the classics of his predecessors and create new miracles.

As for the genius of Heath Ledger, he is still alive and well in this world, if Peng Yichen really "snatched" his "clown" role, will Heath Ledger's ending be the same as in his previous life?

Peng Yichen thought of this, and felt some comfort in his heart, if he can change the fate of Heath Ledger, then this acting genius is likely to open up a broader performance sky in the future!

At this moment, Peng Yichen's train of thought was suddenly disrupted by Nolan who was sitting next to him.

"Peng, I've figured it out, what is the source of my imagination and creative inspiration for the character of the clown, I'll tell you now!" Nolan looked at Peng Yichen very seriously and said.
