The Batman is single-handedly one of the most well-executed films to depict that crime-fighting vigilante in a way that had never been done before. The introduction of a Bruce Wayne that had no resemblance to all of his prior iterations was a bold step that the creators took with the production, and it paid off handsomely. Not only was the film able to breakthrough at the Box Office, but it was also one of the most critically acclaimed Batman films to hit theaters.
But now, DC Films want to put even more of their heart and soul into this project by introducing a supervillain from the Batman universe.
With recent discussions of the sequel of the film, fans on the internet are demanding that the next supposed supervillain, Mr. Freeze face off against the world’s greatest detective, should be none other than award-winning superstar Christoph Waltz.
Christoph Waltz As Mr. Freeze In The Batman 2?
Robert Pattinson‘s The Batman consists of many villains like The Penguin and Carmine Falcone, who are kingpins of the world of crime that Batman had to confront in the film, but The Riddler was the one that took the spotlight away. His character was shown as someone that had a moral duty to serve justice, even when it was by any means necessary. With this mindset, he didn’t hesitate in doing what he did to the city of Gotham and openly challenged Batman to try and stop him. With the Riddler now in jail, fans have turned to yet another actor that they think is perfect to play Mr. Freeze.

Fans have taken to Twitter to make their opinions known, may it be in favor of casting Waltz in the role, or may it be criticizing the possibility of the idea.

Why The Batman Wins?
With the introduction of Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, we were given a Batman that had nothing but vengeance to fight the world with. A broken Bruce who was nothing like his flamboyant, playboy self, but rather a depressed recluse who wanted nothing from the world except the riddance of crime and filth from his city. This take on the vigilante was the reason why it was such a hit movie, both with the fans and the banks.
