Michael Shannon, 'Man Of Steel' Star, On Playing An Empathetic Version Of General Zod. Zack Snyder's Superman reboot casts Michael Shannon as the villainous general, but leaves behind the catchphrase that Terrence Stamp made famous in Superman II, when he played the same role.
In the New 52 reboot, Barry Allen first encounters Grodd when heâs stranded in Gorilla City after traveling through the Speed Force. The gorillas, except Grodd, believe he is the man mentioned in a prophecy. Grodd, threatened, attempts to kill him but (naturally) fails. Gorilla Grodd has appeared in numerous comic series outside of The Flash, including Superman/Batman, Birds of Prey, JLA Classified, and Justice League of America.
