Batman V Superman: 10 Wild Rumours That Could Happen
8. General Zod Becomes Doomsday
The closer we get to the 23rd March, the less wild this rumour gets.
It is been widely reported that Lex Luthor obtains General Zod’s body (pretty much flat out confirmed in the latest trailer) and experiments on it with the hopes of discovering the secrets behind the Man of Steel, and no doubt his weaknesses. In doing so, he triggers the doomsday genome that brings Zod back to life as the villainous creature which leads to a climatic battle where Batman and Superman put their differences aside and join forces with Wonder Woman to defeat him.
It may be a far cry from the source material having General Zod become Doomsday, but it’s a move fans will be willing to overlook as Michael Shannon is far too good an actor to leave it at one film and one broken neck.
