5 New Characters We're Excited To See In Sin City: A Dame To Kill For

4. Wallenquist (Stacy Keach)

Oft mentioned but rarely seen in the graphic novels, Wallenquist is the leader of the deeply rooted -- and quite criminal -- Wallenquist Organization. With the Roark family having been the primary antagonistic focus of the first film, the sequel is set to give audiences their first look at one of Basin City's other major power players. Unlike the surviving Senator Roark, Wallenquist is a much more level-headed and collected figure, which contrasts against his hefty build and disfigured appearance. The character already looks like one of the more interesting translations from page to screen, reproducing his visual appearance flawlessly. With veteran actor Stacy Keach buried under all the prosthetic work, we feel confident that he'll shine through and effectively encapsulate what makes Wallenquist such an imposing figure. Should we get a third film down the road, hopefully Rodriguez and Miller will take the next logical step and adapt the yarn "Hell and Back," which would include a bit more of the character who's already one of the more exciting additions to the series.
