2. Hush / Thomas Elliot

Before taking the face of Bruce Wayne, causing Pattinson to play two characters, Amell could play the childhood friend of Bruce Wayne, Thomas Elliot. Batman fans will tell you about the criminal mastermind who resented the fact that Bruce’s father thwarted his plot to murder his parents. Thomas Elliot is a renowned surgeon and a meticulous planner, and his identity as Hush would allow Amell to showcase his range as an actor and portray a character with a deep-seated grudge against Batman.

As fans eagerly await the release of Matt Reeves’ next highly anticipated Batman film, speculation has been swirling about which characters who might make an appearance in the sequel. One name that has consistently been brought up is Hush, a villain who was first introduced in the Batman comic books in 2002.

Before becoming Hush, Dr. Thomas Elliot was a childhood friend of Bruce Wayne’s who became jealous of Wayne’s wealth and status. He ultimately became a skilled surgeon and masterminded a plan to kill his own parents in order to inherit their fortune. However, his plan was foiled by Batman, and an enemy was born.

How he could fit in The Batman

Hush’s intelligence and cunning make him a formidable opponent for Batman, and his personal connection to Wayne adds a layer of complexity to their interactions. He could be used to explore the theme of jealousy and envy in the film. Given that Hush is driven by his desire for wealth and status, he could serve as a commentary on the corrupting influence of power and money. This could also tie into the film’s overall themes of morality and justice, as Hush’s actions are driven by his own selfish desires.

Hush could also be used to explore the themes of redemption and forgiveness, as his personal connection to Wayne could potentially lead to a confrontation between the two characters. Alternatively, Hush could be used as a way to delve deeper into Batman’s own psyche, as the Dark Knight grapples with the complex emotions that come with facing off against an old friend turned enemy.

Hush has the potential to be a compelling and complex villain in Matt Reeves’ Batman universe. Whether he serves as a foil for the Dark Knight or as a way to explore deeper themes and ideas, Hush could bring a unique and interesting dynamic to the film.
