Tony Award-Winner Bryan Cranston Wants to be Marvel's Next "Nasty" Supervillain

He might have given up the whole meth gig with BREAKING BAD ending, but Bryan Cranston seems to be an incorrigible bad guy.

The Emmy and Tony Award-winner recently shared that his ideal next job would be a comic book villain. "You know what I'd like to do? I'd like to do some big superhero villain in some Marvel classic," Cranston said in an interview for his upcoming film TRUMBO.

He also has a desire to make such a character "from scratch," adding,"I don't know what I would do, but it would be nasty." Since Marvel's superhero films seem to have no end in sight, Cranston may very well have his wish granted.

Directed by Jay Roach,Trumbo centers on the successful career of the 1940s screenwriter and explores how it all came crashing down when he and other Hollywood figures were blacklisted for their political beliefs. The film tells the story of Trumbo's fight against the U.S. government and studio bosses in a war over words and freedom, which entangled everyone in Hollywood from Hedda Hopper (Academy Award winner Helen Mirren) and John Wayne toKirk Douglas and Otto Preminger.

The cast also includes Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Louis C.K., Elle Fanning, John Goodman, Diane Lane , Alan Tudyk and Michael Stuhlbarg.
