Perhaps Porter’s performance in Zack Snyder’s Justice League will convince DuVernay to continue to use the actor in the role of Darkseid in her film.
In fact, it is quite likely that audiences will see Porter in a relatively minor role as Darkseid in Zack Snyder’s Justice League, and the majority of the evil scheming and plotting will be carried out by Steppenwolf, Darkseid’s lieutenant instead, who was the main villain in the 2017 version of Justice League.
The upcoming Zack Snyder’s Justice League will introduce general audiences to DC Comics’ greatest villain Lord Darkseid, a new god, and the dreaded ruler of the damned planet Apokolips.
The New Gods movie is where Darkseid will truly get to shine as the main big bad.
