Michael Shannon is the latest (and one of the most important) cast announcements from 2012’s Superman: Man Of Steel movie. Shannon (Broadwalk Empire, Jonah Hex) will star as General Zod.
Director Zack Snyder said: “Zod is not only one of Superman’s most formidable enemies, but one of the most significant because he has insights into Superman 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.”
