Fan-Casting 7 Big Batman Villains For Ben Affleck's Solo Movies

7. Andrew Scott As The Riddler

Anyone who's seen Andrew Scott in Sherlock knows that he can play insane, clever and engaging with apparent ease, and these three skills would make him a suitable pick to jump into the Riddler's shoes.

As Moriarty, he played a series of deadly, cunning games with Sherlock that impacted the detective at a psychological level. There's no way the Riddler can face Batman in a fight and win; he has to use mind games and trickery to succeed, and Scott, opposite Cumberbatch's Holmes, proved he can convincingly play that role with aplomb.

The Riddler is also rather weak of frame, using his slight appearance to deceive his foes and make them underestimate him. Scott ticks this box too; he hardly looks like he hits the gym on a regular basis, and his gaunt, pale complexion would bring a haunting, spooky look to the role that would mesh perfectly with the DCEU's dark, gritty choice of tone.
