Dave Bautista is all but assured a spot in James Gunn's new
DCU, but who exactly he will play still remains a mystery. Formerly a pro wrestling face in the WWE known simply by his last name,
Dave Bautista has since proven himself time and time again as a genuinely excellent actor. While Bautista became a household name for his portrayal of Drax the Destroyer in Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy, he's also claimed rave reviews for his roles in films like Blade Runner 2049 and Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.
Bautista seems to be essentially guaranteed a role in the upcoming DCU, but the actor recently admitted that at 55, Bautista himself feels too old to play Bane, his dream DC character. While Bautista suggested an older Lex Luthor as another possibility for him that might require less physicality, the DCU has since cast Nicholas Hoult as the famous Superman villain. Luckily,
DC has no shortage of as-of-yet unannounced characters that Bautista might be perfect for.
