9 Possible Characters Willem Dafoe Will Play In Justice League
9. The Creeper
Before he became The Creeper, Jack Ryder was a go-for-the-throat news anchor in Gotham City. But after some funny business involving nanotech and stem cell research, Ryder was transformed into the yellow-skinned, self-regenerating alter ego.
His inclusion in the group could come at the behest of Batman, brought in as a fringe member of JLA in the comics and remaining on the outside with "reserve".
You have to be something of a dreamer to believe that a character as obscurely tied to the Justice League as The Creeper could ever be brought to life by such a well-known and beloved actor, especially in a movie that appears to be aiming for the highest point of mass appeal.
But what else do we have in this cold, dead world if not hope? Are we so demoralised and forlorn that we can't, if even for just a moment, imagine Zack Snyder bringing in Willem Dafoe to lurk in the shadows wearing nothing but green underwear and a red feather boa?
Besides, is there anyone better at playing a creep than Willem Dafoe? If there is, I don't want to know about it. I'd prefer to be able to sleep tonight.
