Michael Shannon Talks TWO Zod Costumes!

One day Michael Shannon's on the "Man of Steel" set wearing what looks like rejected "Peter Pan" spandex rocking those black & white mo-cap dots. By those pictures, everyone deduced Henry Cavill would be the only actor in the "Superman" reboot wearing an actual suit. Days later, there's Shannon again this time wearing an all black suit akin of Cavill's Supes threads.

What's the deal? Entertainment Weekly kneeled before Zod for answers and got the scoop:

Do you have a costume? A Krypton outfit?
There's two different modes. There's something that I have to wear a motion-capture suit for, because if I actually wore it, I wouldn’t be able to move. It’s a very big…thing. I actually don’t know what it’s going to look like, I just know that it’s very cumbersome. There’s another thing that I wear that’s an actual costume. It’s pretty simple. There’s no paisley or anything.

You don’t get to wear a flowing cape or anything like that?
I don’t know. That’s the thing about these movies. I could have an elephant head.

That would certainly be a new interpretation of the character.
Like Ganesh, right? Isn’t that the god that has the elephant head?

Could we be seeing something like this onscreen in 2013?
