Cinemablend: Any story can be drastically changed being looked at through the eyes of the antagonist. What might be seen as an apocalyptic attack that kills millions from one point of view could be an attempt to save millions of lives from another. This is the riddle that any actor has to look at when taking on an antagonist role. And when Michael Shannon took on the part of General Zod in Man of Steel and saw the story through his perspective he came to the conclusion that the rogue Kryptonian actually isn’t a villain at all.
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
Kaam Chalu Hai Review: Based on true events, this movie is thought-provoking and inspiring
Rebel Moon Part 2 Review: This movie doesn't feel anything new or worth remembering, which is a shame.
I'm sure someone from Earth would've done the same to another planet if Earth were in this position.
Technically, Kal-El is a traitor to his own kind. He could be considered a villain, it's just he's fighting for our planet, and he's on our side.
It's like I keep saying about Raditz. He was cruel and certainly lacking in the compassion department but he's not exactly an evil Saiyan. He's just a typical Saiyan who went to Earth to bring his brother back with him in an attempt to rally the near extinct Saiyan race.
I still need to see this! Michael Shannon was such a perfect choice.
