They say a great thriller needs a great villain, and I’ve noticed that Clint always goes up against skin-crawling bad guys.
We love Clint because he’s a force for good in a world of sickos, and the various portrayals of evil in his extensive catalogue is quite impressive.
They tend not to be the smug, moustache-twirling billionaires you love to watch in a Bond film, or even charming psychos who chew the scenery like Hannibal Lecter. No, Clint likes his villains to be nasty pieces of **** who make you shudder and want to take a shower after the credits role.
Who’s your favourite Clint nemesis? Why? Are there any unsung scumbags in his rogues gallery..?
