He doesn't have the hairline, one defining trait of joker is the hairline that recedes to the center and is point, they'd have to put a lot of makeup to make it work, hell even ledgers had that hairline and he's not even the same joker.
Can we just get this guy to play the Joker in the new DCCU? He looks the part, he's got the voice, and he's the perfect age, as Hamill would have been in the 80s. Let's do it, folks!

What a year this man is having. Played the lead role in two of the best games, like ever! Now he takes over an iconic role and does it superbly. Many actors would have been tempted to stamp their own take on it but Troy being a gamer himself and a true pro did it right for the fans.
mark Hamill made my childhood as the joker the one man who put a voice to with the painted face. the one voice we all hear when we read batman comics or see a pic of the clown prince himself. also the one voice of insanity we don't want to get out of our heads. but of course time takes its toll and someone else has to give it a try. troy's version is good and I can hear similarities between his and mark's version of the joker. which leads me to conclude that with time and gaining experience doing the joker he will get better and better and maybe it will be his voice of insanity we won't want to get out of our heads >;)
oh my god. troy baker is so good. i am a big fan of his work . hell i play all of the arkham game because of him playing the voice of robin, jason todd , nightwing and the arkham knight. he is like a voice marster he is great. go troy baker. xx
And in that moment, he proves himself to be the only other person besides mr. Hamill that could pull this off, so excited, I pre ordered the game almost a month ago and I'm beyond anticipating it, like I can't even begin to describe
Hes a great replaement for mark hamill who is the joker in my mind and the game was great. As soon I heard it was called Arkham Origins I not only were we getting the batman origin but sure enough the jokers origin and they did it perfectly, going from jack napier to the red hood to the joker watching his psyche twist are in that game was like being able to play the comic book. So I hope there with be many more installments of the joker in the future with him. Maybe a re revamp of the animated series hmm?
WOW. And I originally thought he wouldn't be able to do it, but he did. Troy Baker is officially the new voice of the Joker. However, there's no question that Mark Hamill will always be the greatest Joker (voice) actor of all time.
My God, he could do it..... Portray the Joker we grew up with. As well as the one we played against, and As. Troy Baker May not portray the older Joker as we know and love, but he can be the Young joker we ALL have learned of, we want to know, we NEED, to know
I'd love nothing more than to hate on the guy, just out of jealousy, but that one bit alone was incredible. Never mind that its the same voice behind Bioshock's Booker, and "last of us" Joel. Just awesome. I don't think it takes anything away from Mark Hamill at all. Mark has more than set a standard for the joker apart from any voice or live actor. I'm sure troy can make his own mark a la heath ledger. brava
plus Troy Baker did some cool voices for people already like Joel from Last of us & Booker Dewitt from bio shock infinite and Kai Leng from Mass Effect 3 the guys probably in more things but that's just of the top of my head.
both....Hamill has built up his legacy and set the standard of Joker, and Troy Baker seems like he will at the very least match it...and he's got time to raise it
I DEMAND, that the next portrayal of The Joker in a live-action movie, TROY BAKER will be cast as The Joker, using THIS voice! I see no other way, in portraying The Joker.. No one will ever outdo Heath's Joker.. Except for Troy Baker!! Or Mark Hamill, but sadly Mark doesnt have the ''looks'' for it :/ I could easily see Troy as The Joker, with some cosmetic nose and ''jaw'' maybe, because he's tall and skinny, and hello he got THE VOICE for it!
First time I heard Troy Baker was as Kai Leng in ME3 and I though he is complete douche just because his character was, but since then he has shown to be one of the best and most versatile VAs
This guy's young enough to play a live action Joker... I'd love to see it.
I agree it would be cool to see
Great now I wanna see that happening.Thanks a lot -.-
He doesn't have the hairline, one defining trait of joker is the hairline that recedes to the center and is point, they'd have to put a lot of makeup to make it work, hell even ledgers had that hairline and he's not even the same joker.
Super SwegWill Yet jarad leto doesn't have that hair line.
Al Speid he does its just not as apparent, its not the first time there has been a tapered hair joker
Can we just get this guy to play the Joker in the new DCCU? He looks the part, he's got the voice, and he's the perfect age, as Hamill would have been in the 80s. Let's do it, folks!
Mark Hamill will always be the best, but that is possibly the second best Joker voice I've ever heard!
Is this the guy who's replacing Mark Hamill as the Joker's voice actor?
CantStayAway already has
After he stopped, he was blushing so much. It was adorable.
He nails the very being of the Joker. I will not compare him to Hamil, because he deserves to be looked at individually. He does one hell of a job.
1:26 he looks like Christian Bale at that moment.
He also does at 1:06.
Is it me or did Troy scare himself at the end? XD
Possibly...maybe he surprised himself....kinda..
His laugh at the end has a tinge of Heath Ledger's joker

If your not really listening for it, you'd think it was actually Mark Hamill
he sounds almost exactly like hamill. I cannot believe his range!!!
When I first heard Joker in one the early trailers I said to myself "I thought Mark Hamill wasn't doing the Joker anymore".
Can't we just agree that he is as great as Hamill?
Close yeah
This guy should've got Jared Leto's role in Suicide Squad.
Troy Baker is just as good as Mark Hamill!
Jesus Christ!He sounds exactly like Mark Hamill.
0:51 that laugh
that laugh at 2:26 is spine-chilling
I completely agree. When he first laughs at 1:30 you could hear a nervous laugh from a guy in the crowd, lol.
What a year this man is having. Played the lead role in two of the best games, like ever!
Now he takes over an iconic role and does it superbly. Many actors would have been tempted to stamp their own take on it but Troy being a gamer himself and a true pro did it right for the fans.

oh my god. troy baker is so good. i am a big fan of his work . hell i play all of the arkham game because of him playing the voice of robin, jason todd , nightwing and the arkham knight. he is like a voice marster he is great. go troy baker. xx
i met him, he is such a sweetie
Troy Baker is FREAKING AWESOME! He does the joker justice and brings honor to Hamill's version.....goose bumps...major goose bumps.
Truly Awesome that was an amazing impression of Mark Hamil's Joker and Troy Baker never fails to entertain me.
Oh my god.... This, this is why he is by far one of my favorite VA's.
Gotta love Troy Baker he is the best VA out there but he has a lot of charisma and is very humble :)
It's as if the spirit of the Joker embedded itself into Troy Baker's soul when Mark Hamill retired from the character.
This is seriously such a heart pumping video. He looks so embarrassed though aha :')
That was so perfect. They made the right choice to choose him to play the joker.
And in that moment, he proves himself to be the only other person besides mr. Hamill that could pull this off, so excited, I pre ordered the game almost a month ago and I'm beyond anticipating it, like I can't even begin to describe
i love it he did great
Very impressive Joker's voice for Troy Braker and he gave me goosebumps! O_O
Hes a great replaement for mark hamill who is the joker in my mind and the game was great. As soon I heard it was called Arkham Origins I not only were we getting the batman origin but sure enough the jokers origin and they did it perfectly, going from jack napier to the red hood to the joker watching his psyche twist are in that game was like being able to play the comic book.

Wow, that is sensational. If I hadn't seen his face I'd have sworn that this was Mark Hamill! Troy Baker is without a doubt a worthy successor
epic Enough said!! I hope they pick him in the next batman film!!
sexygrapepop He even looks like him ! Killing joke movie will be great
sexygrapepop I don't know about killing joke. Hamill said that is the only batman related media he will return for.
After watching this and seeing the Joker from Harleen by Stjepan Šejic... He could totally pull off a live action Joker.
He was blushing lol. Oh my god He is so cute
Awww~ He looks so embarrassed at the end of the monologue!
I watched this awesome video multiple times. Giving me a time it happens would have sufficed.
I'm getting chills.
WOW. And I originally thought he wouldn't be able to do it, but he did. Troy Baker is officially the new voice of the Joker.
However, there's no question that Mark Hamill will always be the greatest Joker (voice) actor of all time.
2:24 that is when I was confident he was going to be amazing as the joker!
Dont hate me but I like this better than Hamil's version
Same.
Now if we can only get someone to replace Kevin Conroy...
Roger craig smith
No we need more of a sound alike
That laugh was sexy
This guy is awesome!
My God, he could do it..... Portray the Joker we grew up with. As well as the one we played against, and As. Troy Baker May not portray the older Joker as we know and love, but he can be the Young joker we ALL have learned of, we want to know, we NEED, to know
That was awesome, very much so! :D
Easily one of the best VAs out there at the moment
I peed alittle in my pants.. epic
The laughter at the though is scary!!!!!
Wow that was terrific
Mark Hamill was a great joker. But holy crap this guy is awesome.
damn that laugh at the end gave me goosebumps.
Speechless
1:19 start of monologue
very well done
AMAZING
I'd love nothing more than to hate on the guy, just out of jealousy, but that one bit alone was incredible. Never mind that its the same voice behind Bioshock's Booker, and "last of us" Joel. Just awesome. I don't think it takes anything away from Mark Hamill at all. Mark has more than set a standard for the joker apart from any voice or live actor. I'm sure troy can make his own mark a la heath ledger. brava
Damn that was awesome
very awesome I must say
Damn I love this man!
Nailed it!
if this was a marvel and dc crossover, he would be saying that top moon knight in a dark and psychological feel
plus Troy Baker did some cool voices for people already like Joel from Last of us & Booker Dewitt from bio shock infinite and Kai Leng from Mass Effect 3 the guys probably in more things but that's just of the top of my head.
that was fantastic I'm amazed that he's so good at that. I will miss Mark Hamill indeed but Troy will do just fine if you ask me.
this is great
"No one will ever outdo Heaths' Joker.."
Riiiiiiiight...
that was a awsome monologue.
Hamill is just Baker from the future. That is why it sounds so perfect.
both....Hamill has built up his legacy and set the standard of Joker, and Troy Baker seems like he will at the very least match it...and he's got time to raise it
Agreed!
That....was.....awesome. :-)
He nailed it.
Mark would be proud!
Super cool.
I like the guy in the audience doing his Joker laughs thinking he's the shit.
It's not that he sounds better or worse than Hamill. He sounds EXACTLY like Hamill. It's like Hamill never left.
It's fantastic!
I'm on board with this guy!!! Perfect replacement for Mark Hamil!!! granted he won't be as good as Mark was but goddammit he is still awesome!!!
I love this man :-)
he did an awesome job! o.0
When?
Fucking... Nailed it...
that was fucking amazing!
And.....he nailed it
I DEMAND, that the next portrayal of The Joker in a live-action movie, TROY BAKER will be cast as The Joker, using THIS voice! I see no other way, in portraying The Joker.. No one will ever outdo Heath's Joker.. Except for Troy Baker!!

If he gets the laugh down he'll be great
He should play the joker in a batman movie
He remaineds me of my English teacher lol
First time I heard Troy Baker was as Kai Leng in ME3 and I though he is complete douche just because his character was, but since then he has shown to be one of the best and most versatile VAs

Damn he's good.
Good shit.
1:01 sonic !
