Marvel \u201cEternals\u201d star and Joker actor Barry Keoghan was arrested last weekend by the garda\u00ed in North Dublin for public intoxication, has confirmed.<\/p>\n

Keoghan, who most recently starred as the Joker in Matt Reeves\u2019 \u201cThe Batman,\u201d was in the Clongriffin area of Dublin when the garda\u00ed responded to noise complaints before 7 a.m. last Sunday from a resident who said Keoghan was outside their window, according to a report in the independent.ie<\/a> which first reported the news.<\/p>\n

When the Garda\u00ed arrived to the scene, they found Keoghan in an \u201cintoxicated\u201d state and arrested him. Keoghan was then taken to the Coolock Garda Station where he was issued with a penalty.<\/p>\n

When reached for comment by , a spokesperson for Irish police force An Garda S\u00edoch\u00e1na confirmed the arrest in a statement saying, \u201cGarda\u00ed arrested a man in his 20s for a public order incident that occurred in Clongriffin, at approximately 6:45am, Sunday 10th April 2022. He was later released without charge and issued with an FCN [Fixed Charge Notice].\u201d<\/p>\n

Previously, attended a screening of \u201cThe Batman\u201d held on the Warner Bros. lot earlier in February, and afterward, there was a Q&A with Pattinson, director Matt Reeves, Zo\u00eb Kravitz (who plays Selina Kyle\/Catwoman) and producer Dylan Clark. One of the first questions from the audience involved the scene at the end of the film and who, exactly, the character was.<\/p>\n

\u201cWho do you think he is? The unseen prisoner \u2026\u201d Reeves began. \u201cHe\u2019s who you think he is. That\u2019s who he is.\u201d So there you have it: official confirmation that Keoghan (who had memorable roles in \u201cThe Killing of a Sacred Deer\u201d and \u201cEternals\u201d) is, indeed, the Joker. What is perhaps interesting is that they were testing the movie, as recently as a few months ago, without the Joker cameo. It\u2019s unclear if this was just to throw test audiences off the scent (and prevent leaks online) but clearly, a no-Joker version was definitely an option.<\/p>\n

Reeves went on to explain how this version of the Joker character is very much born out of the story he was trying to tell with \u201cThe Batman.\u201d \u201cThe thing about the movie is, it isn\u2019t a Batman origin story but it is an origin story for every rogues gallery character that you come across,\u201d Reeves said. \u201cSelina Kyle is not yet the Catwoman and the Penguin is not yet the kingpin, and the character you\u2019re referring to is not yet the character you\u2019re referring to, but it is, in fact, him.\u201d In other words: he\u2019s got a ways to go before he\u2019s leaving playing cards at crimes and unleashing poison gas in Gotham, but it\u2019s still the Joker we know and love.<\/p>\n

Representatives for Keoghan have not yet responded to \u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
