David Dastmalchian has appeared in his fair share of comic book properties. On the big screen he is widely known for his role in both Ant-Man movies over at Marvel Studios. Fans might also remember he had a small role in Chris Nolan’s The Dark Knight.
On the small screen Dastmalchian has also appeared in Gotham and The Flash. Now it has been confirmed the actor will be returning to the big screen in James Gunn’s upcoming The Suicide Squad.
THR is reporting the actor recently closed a deal with Warner Bros. to take on the role.
The Polka-Dot Man was first introduced in the 1960s as a Batman villain. Over the years the character used a variety of weaponised polka-dot costumes, but has always remained a C-list villain. Rumours point to the character receiving a meta-human upgrade in the current incarnation of the movies script.
The Suicide Squad (aka Suicide Squad 2)is aiming for an August 6, 2020 release date.
