Rumor on how Jor-El will appear in Man of Steel

NukeTheFridge.com claims to have received word from a reliable source who says they've seen concept art of what Jor-El will look like in the "Man of Steel" film.

Let me start of by saying that it looks NOTHING like Brando's version of Superman's daddy.
Jor-El is wearing a goldish/white armored suit that looks almost like the one in the video game Halo. The suit has the traditional "S" is the middle of his chest and it blends in with the color scheme of the suit. Jor-EL looks more like a soldier than a scientist.

Crowe's head is completely exposed and HE LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE STAR WARS EPISODE 2's Obi-Wan with the beard and hair. The only difference is that Crowe's hair looks darker. If I didn't know that Crowe was cast for the part I would have sworn it was Ewan McGregor.




Obviously this is an unsubstantiated rumor at this point in time.

I think the Superman outfit looks great! No bright primary colours (which look silly on screen)...instead a darker simple tone, and actual big muscles (looks very close to how big he looked in the comics and cartoons instead of the athletic look of Brandon Routh)! I'm sure the Jor-el armour will be great too........

The bright colors is what identified Superman as a good guy, not just in the sense of being a superhero, but that he is good in everyway. When the people look in the sky, their supposed to see a bright colorful symbol of hope, not some guy in faded emo tights. Just so funny how people like to bring out the "not faithful to the comics" argument at their own convenience but with a character like Superman, no one says anything. Can't wait to see how this movie turns out.

saw this on supermanhomepage late last night.

I kinda like it.

Depending on the story and the context of this rumored suit, i would have no problem if this were true.

I kind of like the idea of krypton being at war, makes the zod coming to earth to face kal-el more meaningful.

bring on 2013!

I don't understand why people are complaining because this superman is going a different route. You had 4 movies of the traditional superman and an updated traditional superman movie. Stop complaining and watch a different take on superman for the FIRST time. If you decide then that u still don't like then you have the other 5 superman movies. Stop B&%ching.
