Joaquin Phoenix may soon retire from his iconic role. Who might carry on the Joker's legacy?

Midjourney has made a few guesses, and we couldn't agree more with them. It's like Jim Carrey was born to play the Joker. Sure, we all know him as the master of comedy, but he would totally kill it in this role!

Brad Pitt looks like someone put clown makeup on him and dared to ask him to entertain at a kids' party. He may have put on a serious expression, but we are not buying it!

Willem Dafoe is the Joker we never thought we needed. His smile is very much in character, and he gives us the chills worthy of a psycho murderer. 10 out of 10 – we absolutely need him cast as the Joker in some Multiverse movie.

Timothee Chalamet and Christian Bale are both versatile actors, but this is definitely not a role they should take on.

Timmy looks like he is about to celebrate Pride Month somewhere in LA, and the former Batman just doesn't have that crazy spark in his eyes.

Matthew McConaughey is someone we didn't expect to fit into the role, but somehow he does. His Joker is actually pretty similar to Phoenix's. Well, now we know who to call if Joaquin backs out of the upcoming movie!

The purple mustache definitely suits Leonardo DiCaprio, but as the Joker, he is just meh. He would make an excellent magician or mime though.

Daniel Day-Lewis' look is bloodcurdling, and the fact that he has not yet played the iconic role seems like a missed opportunity. Again, we need the Joker in the Multiverse movie ASAP.

Fans have also weighed in on the discussion. Many agree that Javier Bardem, Penélope Cruz's husband, would make a good Joker.

He did win an Oscar for his portrayal of the psycho killer Anton Chigurh in No Country for Old Men, so we believe it!

Others think that Johnny Depp would be even better in the role. With his acting range, he would shine. We even know who could play his Harley Quinn…
