From Iwatchstuff, "More Batman news! Does the movie have a title? Yes! It's The Dark Knight, bro! Is Heath Ledger officially The Joker? Sure! Is Philip Seymour Hoffman willing to play The Penguin!? Maybe! (says Batman on Film):
It seems Nolan has been listening to you guys when it comes to casting his other villain, however. I can confirm that an offer has been made to Phillip Seymour Hoffman for the role. Yet Hoffman has indicated that he may not get involved in the sequel.
As much as I like Philip Seymour Hoffman, he almost seems too obvious. When you're picking sort of a pudgy little guy for The Penguin, there aren't that many choices in Hollywood. The beautiful and famous tend to hate fatties. So, in case Philip Seymour Hoffman rejects the role, I'd like to be the first to congratulate Jason Alexander on winning the role of The Penguin by default. Sorry, Louie Anderson."

I guess that does seem pretty obvious.
Hey, I know! Let's forget about the Penguin and use another villain! How 'bout it? Think how good a contemporary Clayface would be.
I think Mr. Freeze done right would be fun. I need to shake that terrible Arnold image from my mind.
God, yeah...was that the silliest idea ever or what? Mr. Freeze has such a groovy look; with the baldness, blue skin, red-lensed goggles and clear helmet he's the quintessential Mad Scientist/Man from Planet X. But that Arnold costume is ridiculous before you even think about who's inside.
