While disgruntled nerdy boys and girls out there continue to declare they have seen the entire movie that is Batman v Superman from the recent trailer. production designer Patrick Tatopoulos wants to enlighten us that we have not in fact seen jack shit. There is way more to the story in this movie (obviously) and teases an even bigger threat than Doomsday.
We are able to tell a story in a fresh way. Doomsday is an evolution essentially. Fans may be aware of the death of Superman story, but this is handled in such a new way.
When the film is called Batman v or versus Superman, it really has a lot of levels to the meaning. Superman isn’t just killed off at the end of something. We see how he evolves as part of Lex’s plan to protect the world. Seeing the Superman we know, be gone, and then replaced with this reproduction is really going to make fans think of how we look at these super beings. It was especially interesting to figure out, how would you create Superman from Zod… then how would that involve into Doomsday.
Doomsday isn’t just the final act. Those feeling they may know too much this early, are going to be in for a true surprise.
