Now that Justice League is here, we finally know the answer to that question, and it turns out that it’s simultaneously more and less interesting than we imagined. Spoilers for Game of Thrones season 5, Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Justice League follow.įirst off, let’s just get this out of the way: I was right. Justice League will feature Superman as a bad guy, at least until the Justice League beats the stuffing out of him and turns him good again. Sure enough, in Justice League, Superman comes back from the dead, and his first action is to immediately try and kill the entire Justice League. Yes, it’s more due to the fact that he’s confused after being dead than because he’s actually turned evil, but I’m still scoring this one for me.īut was this reveal worth deliberately hiding Superman’s role in the film for so long? This is probably a photo of Superman. To answer that, let’s look at how Superman is brought back. When Ben Affleck’s Bruce Wayne suggests resurrecting him around the midpoint of the movie, it’s such an incredibly off-the-cuff, nonchalant suggestion. The movie makes a bit of a deal about how this is a bad idea: Jason Momoa’s Aquaman argues that Superman probably lost his soul when he died, and Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman thinks Bruce will probably create a Doomsday-esque monster, like the last person who revived a dead Kryptonian on Earth did.
