The Harley Quinn cartoon Clayface being a Large Ham actor is also pretty funny, but probably wouldn’t work in a serious movie.

Maybe have him as the secondary villain to someone ala birds of prey zsaz or aqauaman Black manta.

There's a part of me that would want a live-action Mr. Freeze that manages to handle his pathos correctly, but I'm not sure how you would do that without retreading familiar ground.

I have said it before and I will say it again. In my opinion what happened with Mr. Freeze was not Arnold's fault. He was actually trying and when he isn't talking he pulls it off surprisingly well. The problem to me was the script, and the dialog for the character. I know that is an opinion that I assume not a lot of people share. But I always found that he got blamed for something that wasn't his fault.

[up][up]I mean, we've only had one film with live action Mr. Freeze. Seeing another one at this point wouldn't be too repetitive.

It might be because I've binged Breaking Bad lately, but you know who'd be a great Mr. Freeze? Bryan Cranston.

Cranston wanted to be Lex Luther. They passed him over for freaking Jesse eisenberg. Why sad

I've always pictured Mr. Freeze as someone tall and angular. Like Mads Mikkelsen.

I heard Patrick Stewart was almost cast as Freeze in Batman & Robin, and I think he would make a fantastic Freeze.

I've always liked the idea of Patrick Stewart as Mr. Freeze. His voice really suits the ending speech of "Heart of Ice" ("Where a warm hand waits for mine...").

This was a popular fancasting when the Nolan films were recent.

"Cranston wanted to be Lex Luther. They passed him over for freaking Jesse eisenberg."

One idea I would like is spliting lex two trait into two chararter. Cranston as lionel as maquiavelian mastermind and eisenberg as mad scientist luthor.

Also, having watch part of Shazam, im upset that lionel actor in smallville was given such a small role.

While we're still on the topic of Clayface in movies, I want to give an honorable mention to the Clayface from the Lego Batman movie, just for his fantastic design. Absolutely covering him in studs was a risky decision, especially when it comes to Lego fans, who get unreasonably anal about that sort of thing, but it paid off marvelously, the studs really capture the texture they were going for perfectly.

Most of it was cut from the movie, but they animated a really cool scene of LEGO Clayface coalescing together.

I actually really liked The Batman version of Clayface, leaning more to a Tragic Villain.

Part of that is because The Batman’s Clayface was basically a run of “what if Harvey Dent became Clayface instead?” with a new character. Ethan Bennet is one of my favorite characters in that show (which is underrated imo), but a lot of what is likeable about him is undeniably taken from what’s likeable about Two-Face.

I like the scene when he is just calm and decide that being ethan is hard...but being clayface is easy, pretty damn easy.

it was creepy and THE best part of the season, it also sum for me the joker as the corruptor.

Question: how would Batman having the completely white eyes work in live action? Like, how did The Dark Knight or BvS pull it off, with CG or something?

[up]x2: Even Arrowverse's Batwoman occasionally dons the white eyes look, so I'm hoping Reeves's take is more comfortable doing so.

People with circus skills are wanted for The Batman.

He may not appear right away, but Robin is definitely on the horizon!

Sweet. If Batman is in his second year, it's possible his third year will involve Robin and Batgirl.
