The distinctly alien design of Justice League‘s villain Steppenwolf makes a bit more sense, now that the actor playing the part confirms he never set foot on set – or met his heroic co-stars.
That’s a trend set to continue with Ciaran Hinds’s Steppenwolf, although there’s still a chance that parts of the villain will be based on actual on-set performers.
Not with Steppenwolf attacking Earth in Justice League‘s prologue, or waging war against Jason Momoa’s Aquaman and Atlantis.
Given the information revealed about the film in early reports and official trailers, nobody expected Hinds to play the character in every scene.
