In numerous instances, the side characters in the Superman film series are often portrayed incorrectly, undermining the essence of the characters that form the backbone of the superhero’s legend. This can be attributed to alterations in key character traits, neglecting important aspects, or simply underutilizing their potential. As a result, many of Superman’s closest allies and adversaries have suffered significant damage in their film adaptations. However, with the DC Universe introducing new versions of crucial characters, there is hope for improvement in how these characters are handled in future Superman films. Historically, the portrayal of these characters in Superman movies has been less than satisfactory.
