Crooked Dice villains

In the Crooked Dice set of heroes and villains, who is the tall chap inspired by? He seems very familiar, but I cannot remember where I've seen him.

It might be the "hulking henchman", which is inspired by the great pulp movie "Rocketeer".  In fact, this figure triggered me to get into the kickstarter, he is one of my favorite villains!

Thank you chaps. I thought I recognised him but couldn't remember where from, and googled almost every 1950s film I could think of. Hadn't considered Rocketeer
