Twenty years ago, an out of work actor was practicing laughs on a Southern California freeway in preparation for an audition. The audition was for Batman The Animated Series and the actor was Mark Hamill.
Now, more than twenty years later, Mark Hamill’s work as The Joker has come to define the role. He is one of a small group by which all other performances are measured. Nemesis examines Hamill’s history in the role and how his time as the Joker has defined and been defined by the evolution of the character itself.
