Superman’s New Zod Cast

Kneel before Michael Shannon! Plus, the film now has an official title

Zack Snyder’s new Superman film, which now has the official title Man Of Steel, has found its supervillain, Zod, in the form of Broadwalk Empire, Jonah Hex and Bad Lieutenant actor Michael Shannon.

“Zod is not only one of Superman’s most formidable enemies, but one of the most significant,” says Snyder, “because he has insights into Superman that others don’t. Michael is a powerful actor who can project both the intelligence and the malice of the character, making him perfect for the role.”

No news yet on whether Non and Ursa feature in the script as well.
