Snyder’s said he envisioned Jor-El as an outsider on Krypton, one with a relationship to the natural world that most Kryptonians had turned away from in favor of technology. “From the beginning I thought it would be cool to have Doomsday involved somehow in the movies.” Given Doomsday’s comic book history with Darkseid, there’s a chance that an earlier iteration of the character shows up in Snyder’s Justice Leaguecut.
“I really like that character,” Snyder said. Doomsday, of course, plays a prominent role in Batman v Superman, but Snyder says, it was something, like the LexCorp trucks and Wayne satellite during the battle of Metropolis, that he wanted to plant early on in order to create a larger sense of this world. During this era, Doomsday had a run-in with Prince Uxas, the Apokoliptian who would one day be known as Darkseid. This specific reference to Doomsday’s destruction comes from the comics in which the eventual Superman slayer was bred to be the perfect evolutionary being, dubbed ‘The Ultimate,’ and traveled across worlds wreaking havoc.
Snyder revealed that this damage was caused by Doomsday in the ancient past. Snyder also revealed a fun tidbit that he and the crew used the Kryptonian chamber set, where Kal-El is born, as a skateboard park, until someone took a spill and the producer Deborah Snyder, also the director’s wife, shut it down.Įarly in the film, there’s a shot of a damaged moon visible from Krypton. The director also revealed that the phallic and yonic aspects of Krypton’s designs, pointed out online over the years, were “of course, not by accident.” Snyder was interested in the idea of fertility symbols being prevalent in Kryptonin architecture, highlighting the irony of the fact that the Kryptonians don’t have natural births, with the exception being Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and Lara (Ayelet Zurer). Snyder revealed he was very interested in the architecture of Krypton, and specifically aimed to create an art nouveau influence within its structures. Here are the key points about Man of Steel from Zack Snyder’s live commentary: There will certainly be much to talk about in the coming months, but for now the Man of Steel commentary provides an opportunity to go back to where the DC film universe first began. All of this served as the lead-up to an unprecedented announcement, with a special guest, the man in blue himself, Henry Cavill. In the same format as his Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) commentary in March, Snyder shared behind-the-scenes stories, storyboards and Easter eggs. This morning director Zack Snyder hosted a watch party and live commentary of Man of Steel (2013) on the social media app Vero, followed by a fan Q&A. Still, that doesn’t make the reveal any less rewarding. Not all secrets are as easy to keep as Clark Kent’s true identity.
