A wrestler or body builder is the logical choice. the character of Bane is one where acting is not a requirement. And unless a normal actor can bulk up to 300 lbs +, I can only see another wrestler or bod builder in the role at this point should Bane be casted

Is this serum composed of, or originate from venom? I doubt that. We're not gonna get a Bane onscreen that isn't a venom-junkie, that would be out of character. One thing is a prop like the Scarecrow's scythe but another thing is what makes that character unique.
You haven't read many Bane stories, have you?

Are you serious? Bane isn't just some dumb henchman that you cast a bodybuilder for. There's much more to his character, and wrestlers can't act worth a shit, so casting a wrestler is wrong. To say acting isn't a requirement for Bane shows you know nothing of the character.
I know a lot about Bane. I have all his appearances. I doubt there is an actor out there that will gain a ton of weight/muscle to even resemble Bane. The closest you can get would be to handle to Bane would be a wrestler or body builder. That being said, I doubt if Bane would even be in Nolanverse. I highly doubt if Nolan will do any aspect of the Knightfall stroyline.

I'm just giving my honest opinion.

The problem people had was that you said that Bane's role required no acting. Do you really expect the Rock to portray such a complex character as Bane? And even if they didn't use any elements of Knightfall, the character would still be Bane! BANE! He's not some bloody henchman!!!! 😠 So go and watch Batman and Robin!!! 😠

First off, I haven't even read the Dwayne Johnson was even up for the role. I didn't relaize that Bane was melado.(not sure if I spelled that right).
Yes Bane is just a henchman, he was hired to a job when broke Batman back in Batman # 497. If Bane was more that just a henchman, then he would be able to think for yourself and he realey does. And yes I watch Batman and Robin every other day solely for the purpose of seeing Uma Thurman. No Bane would be just Bane. If he is going to be in a Batman film and that highly debatable right now in this singular point in time then their will probably be aspects of the Knightfall stroyline. You can't have Bane all of a sudden just watch Batman night and day, tire him out and then attempt to break his back without their being any rhyme or reason for it.
He's not up for the role.
Also, a henchman is someone who accompanies a man in charge. When you're hired for a job you're an assassian, not a henchman, there's a difference. Bane is not just any old villain that can be done any other way, so we need an accomplished actor, not a wrestler. In fact, the only wrestler that's ever shown any great acting ability is Dwayne Johnson and no one else. NO WRESTLERS.

But alas Dwayne is still a wrestler at heart. Bane is a hired gun no matter how you cut it. If he is ever in another Batmanwehich I hope not, he will be hired to do a job. In many cultures Henchman are the exact same as assassins. You don't really need an accomplished actor for a someone like Bane who is full of muscles.
Dwayne is not a wrestler at heart, he's an actor, and he was a great wrestler, but he's an actor now, not a wrestler. He's an actor at heart, there's a reason he's the only WWE superstar ever who actually had acting talent. As for Bane, anyone here will tell you he's not just a muscleman, there's so much more to his character. But, you're obviously having a hard time comprehending this so I'll leave it up to someone else.

Yeah, I actually have. Bane spent alot of time in prison, so he used literature to expand his mind, the dude's really smart, contrary to what people believe, but to me, utilizing the venom steroid gimmick made his character to me. Seriously, Bane has class. He's had quite a long time to develope his mind before breaking Batman.
