“Villain-wise… I’m intersted in creating a role. I’d love to do something that hasn’t been done before,” Cranston said. “Lex Luthor has been… there’s been a lot of that. I’ve been asked to take a look at Commissioner Gordon. That sort of thing, and it’s like ‘I would be one in several..’ and it’s like ‘I kind of would like to carve out a new identity.’ Mr. Sinister has always been someone… It would be very cool…”
