Ciaran Hinds is Steppenwolf

>>87467186
>It looks like the “Justice League” found it’s bad guy as “Game of Thrones” star Ciaran Hinds will play Steppenwolf in DC Films’ upcoming ensemble superhero movie which recently wrapped production, TheWrap has exclusively learned.

>Hinds recently wrapped production on the role of Steppenwolf which is a motion capture character from an alien planet, much like the Marvel Studios villain Thanos played by Josh Brolin in “Avengers: Infinity War.”

>Insiders also said that Steppenwolf’s look will be upgraded from his first appearance in the DC Films universe in a deleted scene from “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.”

>In that clip released the Monday after the film’s opening weekend, Lex Luthor (Jesse Esienberg) communicates with Steppenwolf via the technology on the Kryptonian ship.

>>87467211
>When the SWAT team arrived to arrest Luthor, Steppenwolf screeched and cut off contact. The clip never revealed who this alien was, but one of the strongest theories was that it was Steppenwolf, going off its physical appearances and the three mother boxes.

>The three mother boxes are the macguffins Steppenwolf is after in “Justice League.”

>“[Back] before there was a history … mankind, the Atlanteans — before they were under water — the Amazonians and, actually, the old gods, teamed together and decided that — based on an event that happened — these mother boxes were going to be placed in the care of, as I say, the Amazonians, mankind and the Atlanteans,” producer Charles Roven revealed. “So that allows us to get into some of those environments.”

>In the rebooted continuity of the New 52, Steppenwolf is seen in the Earth 2 timeline as a lieutenant of Darkseid who leads the flying Parademon forces of Apokolips against Earth, killing Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman in the process and paving the way for a new generation of superheroes.

Why

Is Steppenwolf really going to be the villain or are they cramming in Darkseid in the third act? Because neither of these options sounds super great.

>>87467274
Rumor is that the first movie will be against Steppenwolf, and the second one will be Darkseid, it's a stupid idea, but hey

Jeez, I remember when everyone thought they were going to do Darkseid in the first movie and were losing their shit, now it's because he's in the second one? Is this one of those autistic trilogy things?

>>87469826
they just introduced some of the cast through Snapchat videos in bvs. They need time to actually make some synergy in the movie. 3 hours wasnt enough for the last one

>>87469826
Yes. Anyway, Im mad Snyder will be gone by the time we get to see Darkseid. Johns will turn the new gods Into generic space aliens

Didn't this plot point get leaked ages ago? What else was a part of that leak?

>>87467274
Snyder put Zod in his first DC movie, Doomsday in the second one... I doubt he'll settle down now for a d-list villain like Steppenwolf.

>>87469965
You really think Snyder is better than Johns now? That's fucking rich.

>>87467270
>Comparing a purple incompetent smiling faggot to a decent villain
Describe Steppenwolf without saying what he looks like, what his costume is, or what his profession or role in the comics is.

>>87467270
Isnt it obvious? To try to paint the picture DC is copying Marvel as much as possible.

>>87470673

And that's certainly not true. They're only copying Marvel as much as they think they can get away with.

>>87470804
>He gets shit done
Describing his role. Only nine words and you already struck out.

>>87470804
He doesn't have any infinity stones to lose hombre. Steppenwolf as the Justice League Villain is like having Ebony Maw as the Infinity War villain.

>>87470352
>Darkseid invades Earth in ancient times, but is repeled by humanity, Atlantis and Themyscira, and three Mother Boxes are left behind and divided between the three. Once united they become a weapon of mass destruction.

>On present day, Darkseid's enforcer Steppenwolf is lured to Earth by Lex Luthor's experiments with Kryptonian technology and his soldiers, the Parademons, begin kidnapping scientists.

>Batman finds out about it and asks Wonder Woman for help to recruit a team to stop them. The Flash agrees, Aquaman and Cyborg initially decline. Cyborg later changes his mind when his father is kidnapped.

>Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash and Cyborg find the Parademons' nest in an underground tunnel at Stryker's Island and rescue the scientists, while Steppenwolf steals Atlantis' Mother Box, forcing Aquaman to join the team.

>The heroes attempt to protect Themyscira's Mother Box, but fail and believe joining forces was a mistake. Batman convinces them they can't give up and they converge to protect the last Mother Box which is in possession of the United States.

>Batman interrogates Luthor about Steppenwolf and ends up fighting Deathstroke, who has been hired to rescue Luthor.

>Steppenwolf ultimately retrieves the last Mother Box and activates the weapon in order to subjugate Earth.

>The heroes find a way to revive Superman and he returns to help them defeat Steppenwolf. Cyborg interfaces with the weapon, disables it, and teleports the Parademons back to Apokolips.

>The world saved, the heroes decide to stay together as the Justice League. Luthor assigns Deathstroke to kill Batman in revenge for Batman sending him to Arkham Asylum. Darkseid finds out about the Justice League and decides to attack Earth himself.

>>87470927
so this is all basically confirmed now. Sounds solid, I just hope it works out and there's a few more surprises that weren't leaked.

>>87470927

Hope we get New Gods, have the Apokolips guys look all creepy and nasty and the New Genesis people look more angelic and classic Kirby.

Why the fuck is Batman the one doing this?

In 99% of other incarnations, he's the first to go "Fuck this, I work solo"

"Killing" Superman before the JL was a fucking mistake

>>87472660
Because he is the one that has been touched by Superman's grace. Did you even watch BvS? He isn't going to fail him anymore.

Uh oh. He'll do the voice and all too but Snyder CGI isn't Jackson CGI.

>>87467274
Darkseid is sure to have a cameo at least

But do people really want him to be a jobber like in JL War?

>>87474387

He just did growl sound effects

>>87474310
Why what is wrong with that? Its a awesome contrast.

>>87474550
He did the mo-cap too.

They can bring him back as any character for mo-cap and he'd probably do an excellent job.

>>87474594

They're more like a pantheon of gods than just angels or demons.

>>87475022
A pantheon about as nuanced as night and day.

I mean fuck, the "evil leader" is literally Dark Side and his followers are fake Nazis, literal sadists, or literary allusions.

>>87475096
>I mean fuck, the "evil leader" is literally Dark Side and his followers are fake Nazis, literal sadists, or literary allusions.
That's just the thing, though. The New Gods are supposed to represent positive or negative aspects of humanity, particularly the New Gods of Apokalips. They're not angels or demons, they're parts of human society taken to their logical extremes. Just making them angels or demons takes away the subtleties of the New Gods. They're meant to resemble us for a reason.

What do you mean? That's just the way they are. Jack Kirby always intended on them embodying certain aspects of humanity. Darkseid is tyranny through fascism. Granny Goodness is possessive love. The Forever People embody youth culture. And so on.

This. They're the NEW gods. They're supposed to be a hodge podge of modern ideas like the old pantheons were hodge podges of old cultural ideas.

They're "what if 20th century man had gods?".

Apokalips is a super industrial ghetto. New Genesis is a garden plus Supertown where everyone can be whatever colorful god they want to be.

Mr. Miracle is the god of celebrity and escape artists like Houdini.

The Forever People are hippies and youth culture.

Himon is the god of social workers and rebels.

Highfather is good modern religion that encourages oneness and personal interpretation of God aka The Source. Glorious Godfry is bad modern religion, televangelism that just wants to con people.

Orion is the modern nature vs nurture argument. He can never shake the part of himself that is his father, but he will never yield to it.

Metron is modern science. Cynical, sometimes amoral, but possessing a genuine wonder and joy at how the cosmos works.

Having them be space angels and space demons is a surface reading of the characters on par with the surface reading Snyder gave the Watchmen characters in his adaptation.

In other words this is going to be the worst 4th World adaptation sense the Masters of the Universe movie.

>>87470673
He's a throwaway bad guy. I have no idea why they're using him instead of someone with a personality like Granny Goodness.

>>87477457
Would Starro really work? I mean how would you use him. The Morrison JLA version is too mind-trippy for casual audiences. They wouldn't like it. The Gardner Fox original version would make an interesting episode as the league splits up to fight the triple Starros but its not movie material. The big barbarian Starro-boss was pure shit.

How would you use Starro?

>>87477540
>I have no idea why they're using him
He's the General of Darkseid's military. I can easily see why they're using him. Darkseid sends his general to try and invade Earth, he'll fail so Darkseid will have to do it himself.
Yes, I know that sounds like Thanos and Loki/Chitauri lmao

The crook is because he's a super prophet.His name is IZAYA for fucks sake. This isn't hard to figure out.

In contrast to Darksied the gods of New Genesis are humble before the Source, and Izaya is their prophet.

The New Gods are mix of ideas from pop culture to Zoroastrian philosophy to Judaism. To lump them into "space angels and space devils" is so fucking retarded it hurts.

Snyderfags please kill yourselves.

>>87477639
>he's a super prophet
>The New Gods are mix of ideas from pop culture to Zoroastrian philosophy to Judaism
Exactly, they're a mix. So why would it be a problem for them to be compared to Angels and Devils? I'm a huge fan of the New Gods, not a Snyderfag.

>>87477519
This is the only real argument against Starro.

>>87477575
>The Morrison JLA version is too mind-trippy for casual audiences.
And Steve Ditko Dr. Strange is too mind-trippy for casual audiences.

Oh, wait.

>>87477684
Because the techno aspect was important in showing them as "modern" and "new".

You can compare them to angels and devils, but they shouldn't be depicted as extras from a metal album sleeve.

Look at >>87467270. This is shit. You showed this to someone they'd think Hellraiser, not the 4th World. This is the result of someone reading Apoklips as "Space Hell" and missing all the nuance.

I'm praying those cubes aren't Mother Boxes. Please dear god no. Mother Boxes were one of the coolest ideas Kirby ever made. They're a distillation of the modern idea of a personal path to God. Himon taught his Apokalips students that only they could create their Mother Box by their own hands. Their Buddha-nature was so profound they healed even the warriors of Apokalips. When Orion forced one to suicide it was a big fucking deal and one of the most emotional parts of the original series.

They aren't the box from fucking Hellraiser. Why do they look like the box from fucking Hellraiser?

>>87477747
>Implying the look wasn't watered down into digestible scenes from Inception.

>>87477540
>>87477639
Motherfucking these.

Let's not water down the New Gods into space angels/demons, okay?

>>87477847
Dude, Mother Boxes are supposed to be smaller than that shit, too. They're basically super iPads, with a connection to the Source, like you said. There are tons of sci-fi movies and shit out there where people have magical devices like that but for some reason, all this shit is too comic booky or something. It's ridiculous.

Also, on anything being too trippy or weird, people said the same shit about GotG as well and look what happened. Plus, while I haven't seen Dr. Strange yet, the director originally wanted to go even further in the trippy direction but Marvel wouldn't let him. If we get a sequel, presumably, they'll go even crazier.

>>87477847
I agree that they shouldn't look like just stereotypical angels and demons but I think you can combine that biblical look with the techno aspect. Steppenwolf's design in BvS is a little weird, I'll admit. I'm very anxious about what the DCEU might do with the Fourth World.
Also Mother Boxes can take all sorts of appearances. The way it came apart when "fixing" Cyborg reminded me of Kirby crackle.

>Implying the look wasn't watered down into digestible scenes from Inception.
I just saw it today and no way, man. You're thinking of NYC folding in on itself but there's a scene where Ancient One sends Strange flying through dimensions that's similar to that scene in Ant-Man or 2001: A Space Odyssey. The whole Dark Dimension was pretty Ditko, too.

Fuck you so hard Snyder. You couldn't possibly fuck the point of the Mother Box any harder than this.

So far no one has answered it though, because they all have had to mention his role in the story or position to do it, things like his position on Apokolips or his relation to Darkseid. The point of the question is to get you to analyze what the character's motivations are, and what their actual personal traits are, or to realize they don't really have any, and are just a powerful brick for the hero to break, or a do-gooder with nothing going on under the surface.

>>87478323

I swear Snyder looked at the wiki page of the New Gods, saw "General of Darkseid's army" and went "wonderful! Let's have him head an entire multi-million dollar tentpole movie!"

Why aren't we getting a slow infiltration of Earth like in the Kirby series and Final Crisis?

It doesn't matter. Its still a really, really stupid idea.

The cosmic Jesus-in-a-box is not going to fix a guy by turning him into a cyborg who angsts about being part man and part machine. Its going to make him perfect.

The first thing it ever did was heal Orion's face and fight back his Darsied taint. Healing is its number one function. Its all a Shekhinah Glory thing.
