Upcoming horror sequel Don't Breathe 2 takes the decision of putting the villain from the first movie, The Blind Man, in the lead role. Considering the character's history of kidnapping, murder and sexual assault, this has led to some controversy, with many whether he should really be portrayed as an antihero figure in the sequel. Producer Fede Álvarez though has hit back at these critics, reasoning that nobody is just good or evil, and that some of the best stories often involve grey areas.
