Arnold Schwarzenegger would “absolutely” play another supervillain

April 6, 2017 by Robert Kojder

As far as comic book film credentials go, Arnold Schwarzenegger is infamous for quite possibly the most over-the-top and cheesy supervillain performance in history, playing Mr. Freeze in Batman & Robin. However, fans of that catastrophically bad yet entertaining character portrayal will be excited to hear that Schwarzenegger is not ruling out playing supervillains again in the future.

Speaking to Fandango, Schwarzenegger answered the question by stating: “Absolutely! I think all of those movies, if they’re written well, they’re entertaining. If it’s Batman or Batman and Robin, or X-Men or Spider-Man — all of them. If they’re written well, they have a great life. People enjoy them, and you can see the grosses that they make worldwide. So, yes, of course I would.”
