Birds of Prey Actor Wants A DCEU Return As Victor Zsasz By Tiffany Wang Published Chris Messina, who played serial killer Victor Zsasz in Birds of Prey, wants his character to return in future DC movies, despite Zsasz's death. In case you are unfamiliar with the comic book character, he is a Batman supervillain. Messina will portray one of the primary villains as Victor Zsasz taking on the heroines. Most recently Ewan McGregor joined the project to portray Black Mask. ![]() The project will focus on DC heroines Harley Quinn, Black Canary and Huntress, who will be portrayed by Margot Robbie, reprising her role for Suicide Squad, Jurnee Smollett-Bell and Mary Elizabeth Winstead. (And to see about that dick love.DC’s upcoming flick Birds of Prey has completed its cast of villains with Chris Messina joining the project as Victor Zsasz.īirds of Prey is one of the upcoming DC projects in the works for Warner Bros. Zsasz was a fan favorite supporting character and antagonist from his very first appearance, wherein he stormed the Gotham City Police Precinct and engaged Detective Gordon in a riveting firefight. ![]() I suppose we will all need to wait until Birds of Prey opens on February 7 to see whether Black Mask and Zsasz are a couple and what other changes writers made to characters from the comic book page to the big screen. 1: Gotham The best onscreen version of Victor Zsasz is the one seen on Gotham, as played by Anthony Carrigan. Could those characters have some moments during the movie to represent LBGTQ characters as well? Maybe instead of lip service, we can get some characters that DC hopes to keep around longer (for franchise purposes) coming out as LBGTQ in a way that isn’t cheap or related to buzz around the flick but to flesh out characters we get to see in more leading roles in the near future. What I do know is that Renee Montoya (Rosie Perez) is a lesbian in the comics and I’m wondering if they’ll touch on that in the flick. Black Mask and Zsasz aren’t gay in the comics, as far as I can recall (I’m also super repulsed by Zsasz being played by someone as FOINE as Messina, but YMMV.) Maybe it isn’t true and this is some bs once again a la Marvel promises. Maybe the actors cannot confirm it but know that it is true. Oh, wow! The first kinda-sorta gay villains in a DC superhero movie… ish! “And there’s a real love of anarchy.” OK, but what about a love of dick? McGregor and Messina fumbled and danced around answering in the affirmative while also giving enough of a “sure” to keep fans frothing:Īre Ewan McGregor and Chris Messina's characters gay in #BirdsofPrey? /f1avM9aGSO- Variety January 24, 2020 As the internet and fans are wont to do, a call for McGregor’s Black Mask and Messina’s serial killer Victor Zsasz to be in a romantic- or just sexual -relationship in the movie went up.Ī few days ago, Variety asked the two actors if the fan wish was going to be a reality in the flick. Ewan McGregor and Chris Messina are both very attractive men and they play the two villains taking on Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn and her kickass friends in the upcoming Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn. ![]()
