Batman v. Superman: 10 Actors Who Could Play The Riddler

1. Sam Rockwell

MarvelMarvelSam Rockwell may be yet another actor who has already entered the Marvel cinematic canon but his turn as Justin Hammer in the forgettable Iron Man 2 shouldn€™t discount him from further involvement in super hero films. A method actor as precociously talented as Rockwell deserves a role he can really get his teeth into €“ the neurotic Riddler would most certainly be a fitting part. Rockwell €“ arguably one of the finest actors of this current generation €“ is the rare breed of celibrated actor who is often recognised but cannot be named; more renowned for his skill than his celebrity or star power. The man whose career started out with small parts in Miller beer commercials has certainly come a very long way, delivering truly captivating performances in Moon, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Conviction. If Rockwell can be convinced to be a part of Batman Vs. Superman he could be the perfect man to play the antagonist to Ben Affleck€™s Batman, providing the film with some valuable acting heft. Indeed, the 45-year-old is such a talent that he even has the potential to surpass Ledger€™s Joker as the greatest comic book supervillain ever portrayed on film.
