The Rumour: A cool yet thoroughly ridiculous rumour emerged at the beginning of the year, that not only would Darkseid have a role in the movie, but he would be played by the brilliant Jeff Bridges.

The Truth: Even though Darkseid was reportedly supposed to originally appear at the end of the film as a tease for Justice League 2, Warner Bros. hadn't gotten around to casting anyone in the part yet, so there's absolutely nothing to this.

Even if Darkseid had shown up, he probably would've been a loosely-defined CGI render, much like Steppenwolf in the Ultimate Edition of Batman v Superman.

At least we got some pretty dope fan art out of the rumour, though.
