O Mother, Where Art Thou? (2021)

Angus Macfadyen: Jor-El

Quotes 

• Clark Kent : Is it possible?

  Jor-El : It is possible, yes.

  Clark Kent : How could you never tell me?

  Jor-El : There wasn't the need.

  Clark Kent : The need? For me to know I've had a brother here my entire life? One who wants to restore Krypton using some technology created by my mother? There wasn't the need?

  Jor-El : I understand your frustration, but restoring Krypton was never her intent. At least not the way Zeta-Rho wished to enact it. Lara's invention was a means of preservation, to save our people by retaining and transferring their minds, just as my own mind has been retained here. It was Zeta-Rho who sought to colonize other worlds and enslave their inhabitants as hosts.

  Clark Kent : I can't let this happen. I have to bring back everyone Edge has implanted with Kryptonian consciousness. Just... just tell me what to do and I'll do it.

  Jor-El : The Eradicator is well beyond my understanding. It's your mother's invention. She developed this technology. I'm sorry, my son. I cannot help you.
