Look! Up on the Web! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Henry Cavill as Superman! Warner Bros. this morning released the primary official image from Man of Steel, director Zack Snyder’s now-shooting reboot of the Superman franchise starring Cavill because the iconic DC Comics superhero.
Our thoughts: A classic, retro-flavored Man of Steel, filtered through Snyder’s techno-sleek, hyper-pop aesthetic; somewhere between the drama of the Christopher Reeve Superman and also the additional subdued Brandon Routh Superman. The protect on the chest is thick and massive. They ain’t shying far from that “S” now, are they? The crimson cape is long and flowing, manufactured from thick cloth. foresee to seeing it unfurled and billowing when Supes goes soaring through the sky. The suit: tight, textured, muted blue. i like the wrinkles at the wrist. The boots are red. Cool belt buckle. however is he sporting the red underwear? arduous to inform from the strategically placed shadows. (BTW: Superman is losing his underwear in his forthcoming comic book relaunch. investigate the pic here.) Cavill radiates an all-business, decidedly adult visage. The posture is telling. usually after we get “hero shots” of Superman, we have a tendency to see him standing tall and upright, chest out and puffed, hands balled into fists and at the waist, eyes trying toward the horizon. however this Man of Tomorrow is meeting our gaze, assured and defiant. Hunched and coiled, a touch of bad-ass Batman in him, he feels like a wrestler able to rumble or a brawler able to charge, that once more harkens back to the initial, pulp hero conception of the character created by Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel. One question: Where’s the curl? Bottom line: A steely cool Superman; a meaty tease ahead of clearer, cleaner pics to return.
Snyder is currently shooting Man of Steel in Chicago with a forged that additionally includes Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane and Michael Shannon. The movie –produced by Christopher Nolan and written by David S. Goyer — is scheduled for unleash June fourteen, 2013.
