I have no idea who he is, but I’ll toss this out there: Perhaps he’s being brought on to establish a potential villain for the sequel, like Billy Dee Jones / Tommy Lee Williams in the original Batman franchise.
Of course, by the time we get to see him become a villain, Joel Schumacher will have taken over the directorial role, he’ll have been replaced by another actor, and Speed Racer will have nipples on his jumpsuit and an oddly oversized codpiece.
