Michael Shannon returns as General Zod in The Flash – but he first played the character in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, which he seems to have preferred as an acting experience.
"I'm not gonna lie, it wasn't quite satisfying for me, as an actor," Shannon told Collider. "These multiverse movies are like somebody playing with action figures. It's like, 'Here's this person. Here's that person. And they're fighting!' It's not quite the in-depth character study situation that I honestly felt Man of Steel was. Whether people think that's crazy or not, I don't even care."
