Will The Riddler Appear In ‘Batman The Dark Knight Rises’?

A rumor from a well placed source is saying that it looks like the role of Edward Nygma, AKA The Riddler has been cast for the upcoming Batman sequel.

Hypable is claiming that a legitimate source who has seen the official casting documents saw the listing we have posted below on a casting document back in April.

Is it possible that this could be true? It honestly seems pretty unlikely and would be a pretty big win for the studio of they managed to keep such a big piece of news secret about “Batman The Dark Knight Rises”.

If it is indeed true (which it probably isn’t)who would they get to play the role? Most people would love to see Joseph Gordon Levitt as the Riddler, but he’s playing beat cop, John Blake.
