Derek Powers
Derek Powers is the CEO of Powers Technology who had merged with Wayne Enterprises. He is accidentally exposed to a chemical weapon which made him into the supervillain Blight. My choice for Powers is Christopher Walken. In Batman Returns he played Max Schrek, but the character wasn’t nearly villainous enough for Walken. Derek Powers is a great forgotten villain that he could bring life to.
Mad Stan
Mad Stan is an anti government activist who’s answer to everything that riles him up is to simply ‘BLOW IT UP”. He was based physically on punk singer and man mountain Henry Rollins who also voiced him. With that size in mind I pick Jensen Ackles. For years people have thrown Jensen’s name into comic move fancasts but this is a character that he could really play. Having played a demonic Dean Winchester many times in Supernatural he is at least a little used to playing a villain even if Mad Stan would just be most likely a secondary villain.
Maxine Gibson
Max was Terry’s best friend. At first she had thought that Terry was a member of the Jokerz street gang only to find out he was in fact the newly returned Batman by using a computer program. Outside of Bruce she was Terry’s only true confidante and his moral compass much like Alfred was to Bruce. Bruce himself wasn’t keen on having Max around although even he eventually became glad to have her help. I’d like to pick Zoe Kravitz for the role, after playing Angel Salvadore in X-Men: First Class and Toast in Mad Max: Fury Road she is fast amassing some serious geek points. Not to mention her role in the Divergent franchise. A little hair cut and some pink dye is it would take to turn her into the computer hacking Alfred to Terry’s Bruce.
