Scott Fucking Adkins. He's up for the role of Batman in the Superman/Batman movie. Elite martial artist and all around nice guy. He's the best rising action star I've seen in ages. Grew up in the UK where he ravenously studied martial arts, both Chinese and Japanese, before moving to Hong Kong to work there as a "white actor" in HK action movies, and then he moved back to Europe to do more mainstream acting before he moved to the US. In case you're wondering about his action pedigree, here are some films where you can see him kick ass: Ninja (Lead character and a damn good show of why he should be Batman), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (Deadpool, in the nuclear power plant battle), Undisputed II/III (Yuri Boyka), Expendables 2 (Hector, henchman who fights Jason Statham), Assassination Games (Lead role with JC Van-Damme), and Universal Solder: Day of Reckoning (Lead role).
