why do they call him ''The Stan Rapper'' ?

Because Em is Stan!
It's obvious, Em played Stan during the song, so...he's Stan!

Nah, that's retarded
It's probably because Stan is one of his most well-known songs. And because of that groundbreaking performance with Elton

EMINEM is desperate to get back on the big screen!

The Stan rapper — who won critical acclaim for his role in biopic 8 Mile — has reportedly told his reps he wants to star in a Batman movie — as The Riddler!

“When it comes to business,” the star said, according to the National Enquirer, “you know I ain’t no fiddler…You tell them Batman biggies, I wanna play ‘The Riddler!’”

However, Em faces stiff competition from the likes of Johnny Depp and Inception hunk Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Eminem revealed said last year that he’s keen to make a return to Hollywood.

“I am looking at scripts and I’m looking to get back into it quite soon,” he said. “I don’t know exactly how soon I will get back but it will be soon."

The National Enquirer is a tabloid magazine, 99% of what they say is bullshit.

Chris Nolan said a while back that he wouldn’t recast the role of The Joker out of respect for Aussie star Heath Ledger. Shortly after, speculation started making the rounds that the villain in the next flick would be The Riddler.

According to the National Enquirer (story via here), Eminem thinks he has just what it takes to play a dark, twisted character to be to Nolan’s liking.

Consequently, he’s had his people work hard to land him an audition or a screen test, says the tab.

“After seven weeks of topping the charts with his ‘Recovery’ album, almighty-whitey rapper Eminem [is] itching to dominate movie screens again and repeat the critical kudos he won with biopic ‘8 Mile’,” Enquirer writes.

He reportedly told his people, in more or less words, “When it comes to business, you know I ain’t no fiddler…You tell them Batman biggies, I wanna play ‘The Riddler!”

Said and done: Eminem’s management is working overtime to get him the part, with the movie studio also being “piqued” about the possibility, the same tabloid says.

There may be a hiccup in Em’s triumphant return to the big screen, as Enquirer also notes: namely, the fact that the studio is also looking at Johnny Depp and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as possible contenders for the same part.

As we also reported in July, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is now considered the favorite, having already proved he can pull dark roles and already having worked with Nolan, on this year’s blockbuster “Inception.”

“We’ve gotten word from a reliable inside source with a studio casting grid that The Riddler is listed as a character for Chris Nolan’s highly anticipated to the sequel to The Dark Knight, which is still called Batman 3 at Warner Bros,” First Showing reported, as we also noted back then.

“Even more interesting, the actor currently listed in the same grid to play the assumed villain is none other than Joseph Gordon-Levitt, whose status is just listed as ‘interested.’ Let’s all say it together now: Hell. Yes!” the same report argued.

No, no, no, no. Eminem isn't ready for a role like that. The Riddler act should be portrayed in an epic manner. I would rather have an actor of Johnny Depp's stature playing The Riddler.

I'm so sick of Depp playing odd balls, dude so fucking type cast it's ridiculous

Haha, true that. But Eminem would be just horrible as The Riddler.

Depp is not even that good of an actor, he's very limited in range

For a role such as The Riddle he's perfect. And I mentioned him 'cause he was mentioned along side Eminem in the article the OP posted.

I guess, Depp is definitely a better way to go in that kind of role

Em should do some action flick since he likes jumping around

Lol, I think a drama type of movie would be perfect for Shady.
