Therefore, this villain shall be added to our "Never Again List", where proposed villains rejected by the community shall be placed to prevent future proposals of the same evil-doer. They can be proposed again (with the permission of an administrator) if new elements appear in their series that can change their status as non-PE villains.

Any act of adding this villain to the Pure Evil category without a proposal or creating a proposal for this villain without the permission of an administrator will result in a ban.

What did you say? Did you call me a businessman? You think I'm just a businessman? Do you think you know me, Doctor? Business? This is evolution. This is evolution of the human species. What are you doing bringing this? You know that BASH has over 40 million data points on you, on every decision you have made since 1994, Doctor? I... I know when you have colon polyps months before your doctor does. You got four or five at the moment actually. You know, they're not of concern, but I'd have a checkup as soon as you can. But much more importantly than that, I know what you are. I know who you are. My algorithms have determined eight fundamental consumer profile types. You are a lifestyle idealist.You think you're motivated by beliefs, high ethical beliefs. But you just run towards pleasure and away from pain. Like a... Like a field mouse. Our algorithms can even predict how you'll die. To 96... 96.5% accuracy. I looked you up after we met. Your death was so unremarkable and boring. I can't remember the details, apart from one thing. You're gonna die alone. Alone.
~ Isherwell's mental breakdown by scolding at Randall about "business".
I believe that's called a Bronteroc. Uh... Whatever you do, don't pet them.
~ Isherwell's last words.

Peter Isherwell is one of the two main antagonists (alongside President Janie Orlean) in 2021 Netflix satirical black comedy film Don't Look Up.

He was portrayed by Mark Rylance, who also played Terry Cox in The Gunman.

Personality[]

He was a tech billionaire CEO of BASH and one of Orlean's top donors. In reality, he's also a greedy and businessman who secretly discovers that the comet is comprised of rare-earth materials, wants to mine it and let the comet hits everyone.

Biography[]

When the mission succeeds and then aborts, he discovers that the comet is composed of more than trillions of dollars' worth of rare-earth materials.

He creates a new invention when Mindy discusses him about business instead of human evolution, but Isherwell threathens him for calling business and leaves.

BASH's attempt to strike the comet apart using their own spacecraft made by Isherwell's crews, but it fails due to six out of thirty spacecrafts are malfunctioned, and the comet's still whole, leading Orlean, Isherwell, both as cowards, and the rest fleeing Earth on a spaceship designed to keep passengers alive, leaving her son Jason behind. While fleeing the Earth, the comet hits and nearly all of humanity is killed (excluding Jason, who got lucky and survives thanks to staying in the reinforced bunker).

After more than a twenty-thousand years, a few people including Orlean who flees Earth before the extinction, lands on a new formed Earth. Leaving their ship nude, Isherwell decides to reform their new life, but Orlean was eaten by an alien creature known as Bronteroc. More of them prepares to eat them, including Isherwell, who futilely tries to deescalate the situation, off-screen, leaving their fate ambiguous and its implied they were eaten or survived the encounter.

Trivia[]

  • Peter Isherwell was compared to billionaire and tech magnate Elon Musk.
