Taking to his Twitter account on Wednesday, October 19, Crowe shared that General Zod is an enemy who is very hard to defeat. He wrote,
"15km bike ride, umpteen hours fighting Michael Shannon. He's very hard to put down."
When a fan asked him who wins the fight, Crowe replied,
"Hard to tell who wins, we are still fighting tomorrow."
