Matt Reeves’ upcoming cinematic reboot of Batman, tentatively titled The Batman, has potentially added two members to its cast. According to a story coming from The Hollywood Reporter, actor Jeffrey Wright (Westworld) has entered negotiations to play the part of Gotham Police Commissioner James Gordon. At the same time, Deadline is reporting that Jonah Hill is up for a villain role, although that one is so far undisclosed. The Hollywood Reporter says WB is undecided as to who he’ll play yet rumors are leaning towards his playing the Riddler.
DC Comics
The upcoming big screen reinvention of the the Dark Knight so far only has one star attached, and that is Robert Pattinson as the titular hero. No one is sure how many other villains are in the film, but rumors about that there will be several. The names that have been thrown about are Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, Two-Face, and Firefly. With the exception of Firefly, these are Batman’s most famous rogues. The big omission from this potential list of threats is the Joker; given how we’ll have had two cinematic versions of the Clown Prince of Crime in just three years, we can see why Reeves left him out.
DC Comics
This new film is rumored to lean heavily into Batman’s detective angle, setting up a big mystery that involves many of Batman’s most famous villains. It sounds on paper like an adaptation of the classic DC Comics story The Long Halloween. It’s still unclear if this version will connect to the Batman we saw in Batman v Superman and Justice League; although it would have to be as a prequel if it does. But it sounds more like this will totally be its own thing separate from the DCEU.
Both Wright and Hill are stepping into some very big shoes. Gary Oldman played Gordon in three films; most recently J.K. Simmons portrayed the Commissioner as a cameo in Justice League. And Hill will be taking over for none other than Jim Carrey. But we expect these interpretations to be quite different than what we’ve seen before. Especially when it comes to the bad guys.
The Batman has a scheduled release date of June 25, 2021.

This past Spring, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Eva Marcille opened up about the physical abuse she experienced at the hands of Kevin McCall, the father of her first child Marley. In detailing her own abuse, she also mentioned that McCall hadn’t abandoned his violent ways.
She said that there was another young woman who dated him and also became the victim of one of his physical outbursts.
“And there’s this new young lady that unfortunately was dating him. And his inability to have what people call self control of his frustration and his anger and he takes it out. And he’s not a small guy. He played D1 football. He’s a nice size guy and obviously beat this girl up… But I do feel for the girl. I was just talking to Rickey about this and I was saying, you have men sitting in jail for a nickel bag of weed. However, this man has hit and beat multiple, multiple women and still finds himself out free in the street.”
Apparently, that woman is pursing the charges she initially filed against McCall.
According to The Blast, he has officially been charged for the incident. Court documents described McCall’s alleged offense as ‘Inflict Corporal Injury to Spouse or Cohabitant’.
If found guilty, he could spend up to one year in jail.
There was a hearing scheduled for last month but McCall did not show up. A bench warrant was issued and a new hearing has been rescheduled for next month.
McCall was initially arrested for the offense by the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department in April. He was taken into custody and booked on one felony count of injuring a spouse or cohabitant in an incident that took place on January 14, 2019.
The name of McCall’s alleged victim has not been publicized.
McCall was released from jail on a $75,000 bond.
Looking for a fur hood crochet pattern? The Fable Fur Hood is a quick crochet pattern I made using Knit Picks Fable Fur, a new faux fur yarn made of a super soft fuzzy polyester. It looks almost like real fur (or like a really snuggly teddy bear), and it works up extra bulky, so this pattern is SUPER QUICK.
Seriously, it took me about an hour to make, and just used a bit more than one skein of Fable Fur.
Because the yarn is so furry, I did a very open-work rectangle made of double crochets in chain spaces. This makes the hood very light, and you can sink your fingers through the mesh if you want, but it still looks solid. Super quick and easy!
Project Materials:
- 2 Balls of Knit Picks Fable Fur, Bjern color, $4.99 each
- P-16 Hook (11.5 mm) or other jumbo crochet hook
Total cost: less than $10
To make your own Fable Fur Hood:
Ch 27
Row 1: Turn, ch 3, dc in 3rd chain, (ch 1 sk 1, dc in next stitch)* Repeat to end, with a dc in turning chain.
Row 2: Turn, ch 3, dc in ch sp, (ch 1, sk 1 dc then dc in next ch sp)* repeat to end with a dc in turning chain.
Row 3+ repeat row 2 until rectangle is about 28″ long. then fasten off.
To assemble: fold in half along the long side (like a book, not a hot dog bun!) and sew (or slip stitch) along the top of the “book” to make the top of the hood.
Add 2 chain tails to the bottom corners of the hood for ties.
For more info on this yarn, find Fable Fur at Knit Picks.
