14 Problems Nobody Wants To Admit About The DC Extended Universe

8. Nobody Cares About Cyborg

Of the Justice League's lineup, there's one hero who sticks out like a sore thumb, and that's Cyborg. All of the other heroes, even Aquaman, are somewhat known to even casual DC fans, but Cyborg's lesser-known origin story, mediocre character design and stern demeanour make it hard for anyone to care about him being in the DCEU.

Word on the street is that Justice League's reshoots sought to lighten the character's mood, but even so, it seems rather unlikely that audiences are going to come away from the film deeming Cyborg a highlight above its other superheroes.

This again ties into how ludicrous the prospect of a Cyborg movie shooting within two years really is. Justice League would need to pull off a Herculean feat of character work to make that happen, which it almost certainly won't.
