Is this Lex Luthor's Plan in 'Batman v Superman'?

Despite all the boring set photos and (relatively) exciting news on Aquaman, actual information on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice remains elusive. And while there are no concrete details in this latest story, the rumor itself is intriguing in that it hints at some major plot developments and teases a big time villain. This entire story consists of potential spoilers so proceed at your own risk.

There are two parts to this one and it all begins with Geeky Tyrant, who apparently spoke to an on-set extra who told them "the ending of the film has already been filmed. One of the scenes shot featured Batman breaking into Lexcorp to steal kryptonite, and apparently Lexcorp had somehow gotten ahold of General Zod's body."

So just in that first little bit we've got Kryptonite, Lex Luthor, General Zod, and Batman possibly getting his hands on the one thing that can stop Superman.  Badass Digest then confirmed much of it, adding that Luthor has been gathering pieces of the World Engine, and plans to use Zod's corpse as the central part of his plan. What's he going to do with it? Create something, or someone, who can finally defeat Superman of course. They tease that enemy with this:

Looks like the outline of Doomsday, doesn't it? This isn't the first time Doomsday has been rumored to be making an appearance and it probably won't be the last. What do you think? Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens March 25th 2016.

Doomsday Rumored to Appear in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'

One of the persistent rumors regarding Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has been the inclusion of Doomsday, the creature that killed Superman back in the epic 1992 event, The Death of Superman. Remember that crazy time? Some months back a producer at Warner Bros., one completely uninvolved with the film, mentioned Doomsday and that opened up the speculative floodgates. Nothing has been confirmed one way or another but Bleeding Cool has information that suggests Superman's killer could be making an appearance.

The site has a reliable source who says they've seen designs for Doomsday that would put him in the film. They go on to guess he could be used in some kind of flashback sequence but that wouldn't make much sense in the context of this particular Superman, and the character is mentioned briefly on the Man of Steel Blu-Ray bonus materials. There are already a ton of characters and adding a major baddie like Doomsday seems like overkill and something to be saved for a proper Justice League film. That's not to say Doomsday won't be hinted at in some way.

Maybe an announcement at Comic-Con is forthcoming?  Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens May 6th 2016, and if you want a fan's idea of how a fight between Supes and Doomsday could look, check out the below vid.
