SUPERMAN: MAN OF STEEL

Superman has found his villain. Michael Shannon, who has an innate ability to play deranged, has been cast as General Zod--the role that Terrance Stamp first immortalized.

Shannon earned an Academy Award nomination for 2008's Revolutionary Road, and joins an ever growing cast including Henry Cavill (Supes), Amy Adams (Lois Lane), and Kevin Costner and Diane Lane (Ma and Pa Kent).

Again, Shannon has made a convincing habit of portraying batshit unhinged characters (Bug, television's Boardwalk Empire); the only proof you really need is the above picture though. That is one good crazy eye.
