The character is defined in the script as Zod’s “right hand bitch.” Furthermore, the film will feature Jor-El, confirming that Daniel Day-Lewis was being wanted as rumored last month, alongside his wife Lana.

To be mentioned Ursa, from the Richard Donner‘s  Superman movies, was based on Faora from the comics so it’s believable that in Snyder’s film they’ll be going back to the source.
