The Joker
Cesar Romero

Cesar Romero played the Joker in the show. The way he portrayed the actor was astounding--the Joker seemed psychotic, laughing and giggling about how his next "prank" would finally get Batman and Robin. Romero started his career with his role in The Thin Man (1934). He was known as "The Latin Lover" and had starred in numerous films before he even came on the set of Batman. While he played the part of the Joker, he refused to shave his mustache (because of his title as "Latin Lover"), and so it was covered with make-up. Some of the films which Romero has been a part of are Midas Run (1969), Two on a Guillotine (1965), Crooks and Cronets (1970), Vera Cruz (1954), Shadow Man (1953), Coney Island (1943), and Wee Willie Winkie (1937).
