The 70-year-old actor who played the villain in the Batman movie in 1989, was disappointed he was not offered the part for the movie The Dark Night.
When asked how he felt about another actor playing the part of Joker, Nicholson replied, "I’m furious. I’m furious. [He laughs.] They never asked me about a sequel with the Joker. I know how to do that! Nobody ever asked me."
The actor admitted that ever since he was a child he felt he was destined to play this part because of his love for this comic strip.
