Cesar Romero: Biography

CESAR'S parents were from Cuba. Before he entered into films, he was a dancer in ballrooms, night clubs and stage productions. He mainly stayed with the FOX Movie Studio playing the tall, dark Latin-Lover type in movies from the 30's to the 50's. He was a confirmed bachelor and never married. In recent times he is best known as THE JOKER in the BATMAN TV series.

Cesar Romero: I had enormous fun playing the Joker on Batman. I ended up doing something like 20 episodes of Batman, as well as the full-length feature film version. There was certainly nothing hard about that assignment! Even the make-up sessions weren't too bad. It took about an hour-and-a-half to put the full make-up on, including the green wig. I didn't mind it at all.(edit)
Cesar Romero: I was never stereotyped as just a Latin lover in any case because I played so many parts in so many pictures. I was more of a character actor than a straight leading man. I did many kinds of characters -- Hindus, Indians, Italians. There were very few pictures where I ended up with the girl.(edit)
