I had an idea that Tobin Bell would be a perfect choice if there were to be a Batman movie with Mr. Freeze as a character. Any thoughts?
EDIT I'm referring to the new, Christopher Nolan franchise of course. -

It would be interesting to see how Mr Freeze would fit into a Nolan Batman movie though, considering the character would be pretty far-fetched in the "real world".
My Top 5 Movies:
Aliens
Terminator 2
The Shawshank Redemption
The Iron Giant
The Matrix -

I Think it is pretty plausible. If you left out the whole "needs to keep body below a certain temperature" thing or whatever it is that's wrong with him, Mr Freeze could be a guy who uses supercooled gasses as weapons. Don't know about a character arc or whatever but it could be done realistically.

However, to coin a pun, I don't think there's a snowballs chance in Hell it'll happen. Freeze is a weird character. He started off as something of a joke character in the comic book, (Mr. Zero), and it wasn't until the Bruce Timm animated series that he became the tragic figure we all know now.
Would his character be hard to pull off in the Nolan universe? Yes. Impossible? No. You would need to keep certain constants. His sick wife Nora, his drive-out of love-to find a cure for her, the accident that destroyed his already fragile psyche, his rise as a villain, (although he was never a true villain IMHO). It could be done. Maybe a mutagenic cryonic fluid?. It could be.
Sad fab68ct of the game is Freeze is forever tainted by the stain of
Batman and Robin
, (Thank you Shumckmaker). It may literally be a cold day in Hell before we see Freeze.
I was actually brought here by a rumor that with the 3rd Nolan/Batman movie may feature Megan Fox as Catwoman. Now there's a thought almost scarier than Ledger's Joker.

You game?
I need lighter fluid.
You got it

Victor is around Tobin's age, plus he's intelligent, which Bell can fefinlry pull off. And his cool voice would make a great addition to the character. Much better than that ridiculous Arnold portrayal.
Also, not every future Batman film has to be a Nolan movie. Batman doesn't belong to him now.
