Best Answer

If you're talking about the original Batman from the 1960s TV show, the actor was Cesar Romero. If you're talking about the Batman movie with Michael Keaton as Batman, the actor playing the Joker was Jack Nicholson.

In conclusion, they decide The Joker needed a real name in the movies and Cartoons so they came up with Jack Napier. However, in the comics, it is never revealed.

Who said Dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?

The Joker (Jack Nicholson), also known as Jack Napier, in the 1989 batman movie. The line was first used in a flashback scene as Jack Napier shot both Bruce Wayne's (Michael Keaton) parents. It was later asked in Vicky Vale's (Kim Bassinger) apartment when The Joker shot Bruce Wayne, then using a silver plate to cover his heart from the bullet. When the Joker asked the above quote, this was a revelation to Bruce that it was the Joker who killed his parents. The quote was later used when Bruce, as Batman, confronted the Joker in the belltower of an old cathedral. So yes, it was the Joker in Tim Burton's Batman (1989) and whoever says otherwise needs to rewatch this movie!!!!

Who was the first bad guy batman fought?

Lewis Wilson play Batman in the first Batma n serial movie in 1933. Then Robert Lowery in 1939 in Batman and Robin : Relentless Crusaders for Justice!it was the year 1943 in which Lewis Wilson frist played the role of Batman in the first 15 serials. and 1949 in which Robert lowery played Batman in the second set of 15 serials.Unless you're talking purely about the comics continuity, in which case there's a sort of trick answer. Bruce Wayne's father, Thomas Wayne, dressed up like a "Bat-Man" for a costume party when Bruce was a little boy (he still has the costume), but Bruce himself was the first person to use a Batman persona to fight crime. When Bane broke Batman's back, Azreal breifly was Batman.
