Another Justice League character is rumored to be appearing in the upcoming Man of Steel 2 a.k.a. Batman vs. Superman.

Cyborg, a member of the Justice League with superhuman, robotic-like abilities, is rumored to be yet another character who will debut in Man of Steel 2. Henry Cavill, who plays Superman, said recently that there was an easter egg in Man of Steel that indicates a potential Cyborg appearance.

"What really intrigued me was Dr. Emil Hamilton's connection to S.T.A.R. Labs," Cavill said, referring to the lab in which Cyborg's powers were born. "Cyborg I think would make a wonderful character and an incredible bridge between both superhumans and humanity in a different way to Batman. So I don't know where he's going to come in or if he's going to come in, but that's one I'm particularly excited about. Other references I'm not too sure on, but we'll see where those lead. Those with keen eyes will see them."

Cavill also made references to other easter eggs featured in Man of Steel, such as Bruce Wayne Enterprises featured on the satellite in space. There are also a few easter eggs of LexCorp, the company owned by infamous Superman villain Lex Luthor.

"I actually have no further knowledge of this next story, but there's a good chance Lex is going to be introduced soon or at some stage," Cavill said.

With all of these Justice League characters potentially coming together, it calls into question whether or not the film will actually be a mini-Justice League movie itself.

Man of Steel 2 is scheduled for release in theaters on July 17, 2015.
