Bryan Cranston interested in playing Mr Sinister.

While appearing at New York Comic Con, “Breaking Bad” actor Bryan Cranston was asked which villain he’d be interested in portraying on screen. “It would be Mr. Sinister,” he replied to excited fans during a panel for his upcoming 13-episode animated series, SuperMansion.

The character debuted in Marvel’s ‘Uncanny X-Men,’ briefly mentioned by Sabretooth during a Mutant Massacre crossover as the leader of the Marauders who had sent them to slaughter the Morlock population. He played a major role in the Inferno crossover, where he cloned Madelyne Pryor from Jean Grey for the purpose of having her conceive a child with Cyclops. He has manipulated Cyclops’ life since early childhood and has brought much dismay to the X-Men team.

If ‘X-Men’ producers plan on bringing Mr. Sinister to the big screen (which may actually happen sooner than you think), they might want to give Cranston a call.
