10 Characters Who Must Be Introduced In The DC Extended Universe

9. Bizarro

Rumour has it that a new Superman movie isn't a priority for Warner Bros., with the plan instead being to have Henry Cavill's Man of Steel make a series of supporting/cameo roles in upcoming DC Comics movies. That's an idea it's easy to be excited about - especially if he ends up in the middle of a battle between Black Adam and Shazam - but if one were to happen, who should he face?

Lex Luthor, Brainiac, Doomsday, and Metallo are among the most obvious answers, but why not head down a slightly more unexpected route? Bizarro was created by Lex Luthor and is an imperfect clone of Superman's (there are other origin stories, but that's perhaps the most straightforward).

His appearance, the way he speak and acts, and the fact Luthor created a Superman clone in the first place is all pretty ridiculous, but it would be a fun, light-hearted direction to take that long overdue Man of Steel sequel down. Plus, it would really give Henry Cavill the chance to stretch his acting chops with dual roles, while there are lots of ways Warner Bros. could update the character for today.
