Bane is an iconic Batman villain that holds the distinction as the only being to have ever "broken" the bat. An imposing physical specimen, Bane's initial run in the original comics saw him literally break Batman's back. Since then, several adaptations of Bane have tried to incorporate this storyline. This includes Tom Hardy's take on the character in 2012's The Dark Knight Rises, where he effectively cripples and forces Christian Bale's Batman into retirement.
Since then, no movie has attempted to bring Bane bac to the big screen. However, if the recent rumors are to go by, the gigantic Batman antagonist might be headed to the small screen next.
Will we see Bane in the Peacemaker spin-off TV series?
James Gunn's The Suicide Squad didn't do that well in the box office. However, this hasn't stopped fans from asking for more. Although there is no The Suicide Squad sequel in the works, James Gunn does have a follow-up DCEU project. The writer/director is set to take his unique talents to the smaller screen alongside John Cena in HBO Max's Peacemaker TV series.
