Voiced by acclaimed actor <strong>Ciaran Hinds <\/strong>(<em>Game of Thrones<\/em>), the character was initially criticized for being underwhelming, and poorly designed upon its release. Hinds provided the voice but did not perform the CGI motion capture for Steppenwolf in the film. The vast amount of criticism was not centered around Hinds voice performance, but instead around his design and back story, or lack thereof. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> The character design for Steppenwolf was suppose to be much more menacing than what we got, you may remember his original intended look in this deleted scene from <strong><em>B<\/em>atman v Superman: Dawn of Justice <\/strong>that <strong>Warner Bros<\/strong>. released shortly after the film hit theaters. An executive decision was made to change his design so he would not appear as scary or alien like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Communion\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/s-MUzvASr8s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s common knowledge now that the <strong><em>Justice League<\/em><\/strong> film we got in 2017 was not the 3+ hour epic<strong> <\/strong>that director <strong>Zack Snyder<\/strong> intended for all of us to see. The film was famously plagued with re-writes, reshoots and consistent studio interference throughout. This was due to negative reviews and the poor box-office reception of <em><strong>BvS: Dawn of Justice.<\/strong><\/em> At the time, <strong>Warner Bros.<\/strong> executive <strong>Jon Berg<\/strong>, and <strong>DC Entertainment<\/strong> President &amp; Chief Creative Officer <strong>Geoff Johns<\/strong> wanted to lighten the tone and make the movie more &#8220;family friendly.&#8221; After Snyder left the project because of a family tragedy, <strong>Marvel Studios<\/strong> director <strong>Joss Whedon<\/strong> (<em>The Avengers<\/em>) was hired to &#8220;finish&#8221; the film which turned into essentially remaking almost the entire film 6 months before release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We now know that Snyder&#8217;s original version of <em><strong>JL<\/strong><\/em> will finally be realized next year on <strong>HBO Max<\/strong> in the form of a four-part series event to premiere sometime in early 2021. This includes extended scenes and dialogue from Steppenwolf as well as his original (much scarier) design being brought back for the series. Hinds recently spoke about his excitement for the Snyder Cut finally being released but did not touch upon the recent allegations made at former <strong>WB<\/strong> exec. Jon Berg, Geoff Johns and Joss Whedon by <strong>Cyborg<\/strong> actor, <strong>Ray Fisher<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/2020\/08\/warnermedia-to-investigate-justice-league-production-after-ray-fishers-recent-claims-against-director-joss-whedon-geoff-johns-and-jon-berg\/\">for unprofessional behavior on the set of Justice League reshoots.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-text-align-center is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;It was his dream to realize it, and I think it&#8217;s fantastic that he&#8217;s got this opportunity to realize what he wanted to do in the first space,&#8221; Hinds\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nme.com\/news\/film\/justice-leagues-ciaran-hinds-on-the-snyder-cut-its-a-fantastic-opportunity-2757994\" target=\"_blank\">told NME<\/a>. &#8220;He has the chance to recreate what he wanted to do and I hope it stands up to the trial it&#8217;s been given.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"443\" height=\"259\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/new-design-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"30762\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/new-design-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/?attachment_id=30762\" class=\"wp-image-30762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/new-design-1.jpg 443w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/new-design-1-300x175.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 443px) 100vw, 443px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">Redesigned Steppenwolf in 2017&#8217;s <em>Justice League <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Old-design-1-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30766\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Old-design-1-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Old-design-1-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Old-design-1-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Old-design-1-1-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/theculturednerd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Old-design-1-1.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Original Steppenwolf design from the recent <em>Snyder Cut<\/em> trailer released during <strong>DC Fandome<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The four-part HBO Max series will include a ton of alternate scenes, cameos and even entire character arcs re-inserted back into the film to make it as close to Snyders original version as possible.
