Avengers star Dave Bautista has expressed interest in playing a member of Batman’s rogues in a standalone film and it isn’t Bane.
Dave Bautista has notoriously gone from WWE wrestler to actor after his breakout role as Drax in James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy. The actor last appeared in the MCU as Drax in Avengers: Endgame and is set to return for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. James Gunn is currently prepping The Suicide Squad, a film Dave Bautista nearly stared in. But, Dave Bautista is currently filming Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead.
While Dave Bautista is still in the MCU, many DC fans have been fan-casting the actor to play Bane in Matt Reeves’ The Batman. Bane currently isn’t one of the rumored rogues to appear in The Batman. However, Dave Bautista has expressed interest in the past and would be the perfect person to bring a comic book accurate Bane to the big-screen, given his background. With the trailer for Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker hitting the internet on Wednesday, someone tweeted at Dave Bautista, writing how much they would rather see Dave Bautista play a different Batman villain that isn’t Bane, in a standalone film ala Joker:
I going to enthusiastically agree with you on that!

Dave Bautista also shared his thoughts on the latest trailer for Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker, and confessed how “disconnected” it feels not having Batman involved:
Odd thing is I’m dying to see it but my brain has not connected it to Batman at all. There’s a disconnect for some reason but I can’t wait to see Joaquin as The Joker. Looks interestingly dark and grounded in the vain of The Dark Knight series. I’m in!! https://t.co/4gLDfuJtnm
