Hollywood is full of iconic movie roles that have been taken on by multiple actors, with Batman being one of the most prominent examples. Some of the actors who've played the superhero over the years include George Clooney and Christian Bale.
But as iconic as he is, more often than not, it's the franchise's villains that are the most memorable characters of all. Now, Matthew McConaughey has been rumored to play Two-Face in the new Batman movie.
