Superman: The Dark Side
As we all know, Superman is dead. So how can this Elseworlds story be adapted? How can the Man of Steel become a disciple of Darkseid?
A couple of months ago, Zack Snyder teased this particular storyline, although he didn't name it. The director said that in the DCEU, Darkseid is like a force of nature. Furthermore, the director also said that the ruler of Apokolips will have a say in how Superman is revived.
Could we see a brainwashed Man of Steel confronting the Justice League as one of Darkseid's generals? I guess this is a path that Zack Snyder would consider appropriate for the superhero and that could fall in line with everything that has happened in the DCEU. Of course, nobody can expect for The Dark Side to be adapted in full.
But, as it has happened until now, we can expect Snyder to borrow from this particular storyline. Thus, Superman will be revived at the end of the Justice League movie, and he’ll have to realize for himself who he actually is in the Man of Steel sequel.
