When it comes to DC’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice aka Justice League prequel, one of the more secretive aspects of the film up to this point has been the villainous side of things. Let’s face it, we’re getting what, five superheroes making appearances in this film? We have to be getting more than just Lex Luthor as well. Even for that villain, five heroes is too many to take on all by himself. So one of my biggest questions going into this film is, who in the hell are we going to be getting besides Luthor in this film, villain-wise?
There have been some rumors as of late that there may be a possible big-bad that appears at the end of the film who is under the control of Luthor, that then leads to Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman teaming up to try and take down said big baddy. Who is this rumored bad guy? We don’t know, all we’ve known so far is that there might be a villain showing up to fight those three heroes at the end of the film. I know Schmoeville, not much to go on.
Well today, the folks over at Latino Review released an exclusive report claiming to know four secondary villains that are going to be making appearances in the film. Now, this should of course be taken with a grain of salt, and I’m going to put a SPOILER WARNING here, just in case any of these villains do end up showing up in the film, and you don’t even want an inkling that they will.
So, again, if you don’t want anything possibly spoiled for you in this film, I would turn away now, okay?

So LR claims to know four secondary villains that are going to be making appearances in the film. The first, is none other than the Gotham City Serial Killer himself, Victor Zsazs. This dude is one messed up guy Schmoeville. Not only does he usually only kill with a knife in the comics, but he also carves a tally mark somewhere on his body for every person he kills. I know, messed up. I could see Batman’s introduction scene in the film have something to do with him taking down Zsazs really easily for like the fiftieth time or something, I really hope they don’t do much with his character if they use him at all in the film.

The next bad guy that apparently will be making an appearance in the film, is Morgan Edge. Here’s what LR has to say about Edge’s role in the film:
“In the movie, Edge is a total slimeball and a public relations exec for Lexcorp. Basically, he’s Lex Luthor’s mouth piece. We meet Edge early on when he goes toe to toe with Lois Lane in a television talk show. In the movie’s backstory, Edge and Luthor were members of the most notorious gangs ever to come out of Hob’s Bay.”
Now, they speculate that they think McNairy will be playing Edge in the film because it is “something in his wheelhouse,” but I really hope they’re wrong. I don’t want Snyder to have cast McNairy in a role in this film that is just another corporate slimeball, that actor deserves so much more than a role like that.

The next villain that they claim will be appearing in the film is David Cain. Cain in the comics is one of the world’s deadliest assassins who also happens to be in his 50s. Apparently, Cain meets with Luthor’s bodyguard, Mercy Graves, to set up some kind of an assassination. I know, an assassin planning an assassination attempt… shocking.
Finally, the last villain that the report claims will be appearing in the film is none other than Senator Amanda Waller. That’s right, apparently the role has yet to be cast or mentioned, but will be appearing in the film as a stern and focused senator who does not trust Supes. According to the report, Waller comes up with a certain countermeasure plan to take down Superman in the film. What the plan is? We still don’t know.
So , any takers in who will be that big villain besides Lex ? And thoughts ?
