New Film Navigation: 'Man of Steel' Reveals New Images, Director Says Characters Are More Human

Look at the pictures... According to Mtime, one of the most anticipated movies of 2013, co-produced by Warner Bros., Legendary Pictures, and DC Comics, with Christopher Nolan involved in the screenplay and production and directed by Zack Snyder, the new film 'Man of Steel' has released a set of new images featured in the latest issue of the UK magazine 'Total Film.' The images include behind-the-scenes shots of Snyder with lead actor Henry Cavill, stills of young Superman with his adoptive father, and cool shots of Superman standing on the battlefield in his costume.\ Snyder shared his understanding of the character of Superman. He said: 'We want to make a Superman film where, when he does something, you think, "If I were Superman, I would do the same." Although he is an alien, he is more real, believable, and human.'\ Cavill stated: 'This is a more modern Superman—not completely overturning the existing image of Superman, but rooted in reality. The story is about an extraordinary man capable of extraordinary things, but at the same time someone we can relate to. He goes through hardships and has to make difficult decisions…'\ In addition to Cavill and Amy Adams, who plays Superman's girlfriend, the film stars Michael Shannon, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, and others. The film will be converted to 3D in post-production and is scheduled for a global release on June 14, 2013, in 2D, 3D, and IMAX 3D, and is expected to be introduced domestically.
