" Whether people think that ’s unbalanced or not , I do n’t even care . "
There are alotof problems surroundingThe Flash. Like, it’s kind of shocking this movie is coming out at all? You can read about some of themhere.
To top it all off, it sounds like one of the film’s biggest stars — specifically,Michael Shannon, who plays General Zod — wasn’t too wild about what his role entailed.
In a recent interview withCollider, Michael revealed that returning to the DCEU as Zod “wasn’t quite satisfying” — and he had a pretty specific reason why.
“These multiverse movies are like somebody playing with action figures,” he said. “It’s like, ‘Here’s this person. Here’s that person. And they’re fighting!’”
Michael went on to say that his work onThe Flashwasn’t “quite the in-depth character study situation” that he felt portraying Zod in 2013’sMan of Steelwas. “Whether people think that’s crazy or not, I don’t even care,” he added.
“I really felt likeMan of Steelwas actually a pretty sophisticated story,” he said. “I feel likeThe Flashis, too, but it’s not Zod’s story. I’m basically there to present a challenge.”
“It’s pretty crazy,” he continued. “I didn’t ever think I would be an action figure. I never imagined that for myself. I can’t take all the credit because the action figure isn’t me. It’s General Zod.”
“That would be weird, if I actually had my ownMichael Shannonaction figure.”
He’s right — that would be weird! Anyway, read the whole interviewhere.
