  1. He can be a great Bane in Robert Pattinson Batman movies

  2. He’s Rabban in Dune.  I guess a portraying straightforward sadist with an intimidating sense of physicality isn’t challenging enough for him.

  3. He’s got the look for Hugo strange or Vandal Savage

  5. “How would feel about doing a Drax spin-off? We can team him up with a space orangutan or something..”

  7. I love this guy. You can tell he really wants to spread his wings and act. Though not a fantastic movie, he was great in Knock at the Cabin Door. I think he’s got chops and he is really pushing to not be seen as “Former Pro Wrestler-Turned Actor”.

  8. He might be a good Barracuda (Punisher). Yeah, he’s not Black, but if he wants a true villain, Barracuda would do that for sure.

  9. With his physique and Javier Bardem’s voice, we could have a great Bane.

  13. Give him a fat suit and make him Violator for that new Spawn movie that’s never going to happen.

  15. he’s good in Dune. My favorite role he had was in blade runner though.. the guy has serious acting chops

  16. They sort of already have the Gunniverse take on the character but he’d make a hell of a Killer Croc.

    If I had $200 million I’d cast him as Titano the Super-Ape and let him killed every Superman from every timeline.

  17. hugo strange visually

    but he can act so whatever

  18. The cinematography did Oscar Isaac dirty, but Bautista could make for a solid Apocalypse

  19. I think he can pull off more roles than people give him credit for

  21. My picks for Dave are Mr. Freeze, Bane and Mongul for the DC Universe

    Personal preference maybe Mr. Freeze as that can give him more range to be a sympathetic villain

  22. NO. Don’t go back to comics, Dave. There is a Zelda movie in the works. Grow your hair, dye it liver red, and repeat after me:
    “Now witness a King’s Rise!!!”
    Gannondorf. You are Gannondorf.

  23. Dude you are a GIANT WWE wrestler. You are not going to get a “deep” role. Why does he think he’s entitled to that?

    You’re the musclehead dumb guy. And you’re so good at it.

    The 120lb platinum blonde doesn’t get to be an “ominous villain” either. Or the actor who looks like a stoner.

  26. He be great as a villain who appears to be The Heavy, but is really the Big Bad all along.

  28. Fuck yes. Dave couldn’t a really good, dark villain.
