Jon Bass loves playing the villain. "[It's] the best," he tells Popsugar.
The 33-year-old actor stars in "She-Hulk" as Todd Phelps, the obnoxious billionaire who gives us the world's cringiest "Wakanda Forever" and turns out to be a raging misogynist hellbent on stopping She-Hulk (Tatiana Maslany).
"I love it. I had so much fun," he says of being the bad guy. "Playing the villain is so much more fun than playing the hero." Of course, Bass has played the villain before. He explored his bad side in a role on "The Newsroom," and he even played a jerk also named Todd on "Miracle Workers." Bass notes that in some ways playing a bad guy "comes natural" to him. "Luckily, I don't mind poking fun at myself or at the sort of people we're trying to poke fun at."
He admits, "I think sometimes I have a punchable face," adding that it's "slightly punchable" and "slightly likable.
