Giancarlo Esposito says he wants to play Mr. Freeze in James Gunn's DCU ❄️ (via @ign.com) - ThreadSky

Oh, it's the guy from Farcry 6

Perhaps Giancarlo could play a freedom fighter thwarting an assault upon his birth country from T***py U.S. depredation.

Why can I see that actually? LET HIM COOK

Please, that would go so incredibly hard.

Hell no. Just because you want to play Mr. freeze does not mean the audience want to see you as Mr. freeze.

I...love that!

reply

richardsickels.bsky.social•64 days ago

Right!? I don't know much about canon Mr Freeze, but I feel like he would absolutely crush that role.

reply

ryankinney.bsky.social•64 days ago

A mad scientist who is experimenting while cryotherapy to save his dying wife, I can't think of a better actor to play the role with humanity and fury

That stare of his gives me chills. He would be perfect.

Maybe

Maybe wait a bit, before you sign up for that, Mr. Esposito

A little caution, perhaps

Literally can't be worse than the last guy to play him

We know he's an amazing actor, sounds perfect for the role and that's all great but the real question is...

How many Ice Puns is he gonna try to rattle off? The current record is 28

But Mr freeze is…. I can’t say it I don’t want to shatter his hopes and his dreams.

Now that’s a chilling idea. ❄️ Make it happen, James Gunn! #DCU #MrFreeze

Holy shit PLEASE, I’ve wanted him to play the character for years now

Not a bad idea. Fingers crossed they don’t mess him up like they did in Batman & Robin

Does he not have any other photos of himself???

nightwalker065.bsky.social•65 days ago

I mean this is the best photo to use.

reply

2890moshark2.bsky.social•65 days ago

No I get what you mean but I have never seen a different photo of him.

From what I've seen, everytime an actor is asking for a role, he is not getting it.

Let him. Just let him.

Let him do it.

Would honestly be better than if he played him in the Matt Reeve's movies

He keeps collecting Villain roles like he collecting Dragon Balls.

reply

nebulajack.bsky.social•65 days ago

Honestly,I feel like he had more Lex Luther energy but Mr Freeze also works. I think they need to remake the character to be less goofy like riddler in The Batman (great movie!)

I'm hearing his voice say "Nora" in a brooding manor, and I like it.

reply

infynyty.bsky.social•65 days ago

If he wants to play Mr. Freeze, let him play Mr. Freeze.

reply

jarrom4nov.bsky.social•65 days ago

If he gets cast, I hope the "final fight" of the movie would be a moral debate and not a fist fight. It can showcase the often relegated part of Batman: His compassion.
