RUMOR: BATMAN v SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE's Secret Villain Finally Revealed
We know Lex Luthor and Doomsday will be causing problems for The Trinity in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but a new report claims that the movie is indeed going to feature a third bad guy who will set up the events of Justice League. It's not who you're expecting though...
Zack Snyder recently indicated that the creation of Doomsday is going to factor into Justice League, and Latino-Review has now quite confidently stated that that will be in the form of Bizarro. While the site mentions that it's possible the big screen version of the villain will have a similar origin story to his comic book counterpart (Lex Luthor created him using Superman's DNA), they don't offer any specifics, so it really remains to be seen how Bizarro will be used in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. The team coming together to square off against this Superman clone could work, but doesn't really feel like a big enough threat for the League after taking down Doomsday. Perhaps Lex uses this clone to infiltrate the team after kidnapping or killing the real Man of Steel? We're just going to have to wait and see, but for now, share your thoughts on this story in the usual place.
