In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), Dave Bautista has always been the perfect actor for Drax. with the “Guardians of the Galaxy”In films, the former wrestler also became known around the world outside of full-contact sport and as a result received more role offers in order to further develop his acting skills and satisfy his desire for new challenges.

It was James Gunn who had to hit it off to Marvel Studios officials. But now it’s his former protégé, of all people, who has put an end to his desire to embody the DC villain and backbone-breaker of Batman in the DC Universe (DCU): Bane.

Most recently, the character was played by Tom Hardy in Christopher Nolan “The Dark Knight Rises” Play, who earned praise for his physique and criticism for his slurred pronunciation. The American public had a lot of trouble understanding Hardy. James Gunn and Peter Safran, as co-executive directors, have been working out a roadmap for the upcoming DCU for the next few years. The days when movie makers want to reveal some initial details like upcoming movies. However, there will be no room for Bautista like him in return from the inside let him know. The reason is compelling:

I’ve had conversations with James [Gunn] It led, but I think the trend it’s leaning in — which is starting the whole universe from scratch — is starting from zero and getting younger and fresher. And I think you should do that. I think to revive the DC Universe you have to start from scratch. And I think you have to start with younger actors.”

And that means Gunn and Safran need actors who can not only slip into their roles in a movie or two, but – just like in the MCU – need to be able to stay on board for 10-15 years in order to undergo evolution with Her characters are on several movies. Bautista appears unhappy about the outcome of the talks and his request was rejected:

“I also have to say that I appreciate it because I don’t want to play a character that I can’t do justice to. I don’t think I can do Ben justice at this point in my career. I just don’t know if I can handle the physical role. And I don’t think I have the ability.” I have the endurance to plan ahead for movies. So I don’t know if I’m going to be that guy.”

It is certainly understandable. After all, Bautista revealed that it was Drax’s decision after that “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” His farewell also has to do with the fact that he is no longer the youngest at 54 years old. It became increasingly difficult for him over the years to maintain physical fitness for the role. Finally, Bane is a completely different house number. Bautista has at least spent his time in the comic universe, and those stars in the video are also absent from comedic roles.

Dave Bautista really wanted to play Bane

James Gunn must have made his buddy Dave Bautista very coherent and clear about his plans for the DCU, because in late 2021 Bautista was adamant he could and wanted to play Bane in all of her glory (via clashes):

Without discrediting Tom Hardy’s version of Bane, I love that performance, I love the movie. I’d like to take on the role. I think I can bring an interesting twist to the role and I think I can do the character justice. Not only in acting, but also in physicality. I’d like To play roles that require me to gain 300 lbs.

In the end, Bautista probably should have admitted first and foremost that even for someone like him, the time for this type of role might be over. However, his fans could of February 9, 2023 In the thriller M. Night Shyamalan “knock in the cab” See in the cinema.
