Man of Steel will buck the current trend of "midnight" film showings now being scheduled at 10pm after the tragedy of the Colorado shootings.. Man of Steel will actually be released at midnight.




In a new interview with the aptly named Interview Magazine, Henry Cavill may have let slip one of the two new super powers Superman will have in Man of Steel. Relax, it's nothing too drastic but may prove an irritation for Batman.

Cavill: "For example, because of his strength, he can't just give his mom a big hug, because if he really hugs her hard, then she'll explode, so he has to find ways of conveying love without doing harm. A light bulb popping doesn't scare him. He can see in the dark, so when the lights go out, nothing changes for him."




The Joss Whedon promotional tour for Much Ado About Nothing is coming to a close as the film is finally in theaters. That also means we probably won't be hearing any new updates on Avengers 2 or Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. for quite a bit. However, here's one of the last, which has Joss talking about his role as Marvel Consultant in Phase II.

Whedon: "I am consulting for Marvel on everything, so I do actually have a little bit of say. Kevin Feige (President of Production for Marvel Studios) is running things brilliantly; he knows exactly what he wants to do. But I do get to sort of come in say "What if we...?" and "Can we do...?" and every now and then I say "Can we protect MY film, please?" But usually he's got his eye on the ball, and I respect them, and I think they all tee up well for what it is that I have coming. And not by design, really more coincidence."


Here's another, this time Joss is talking to Time Magazine and touches on superhero films in general, specifically mentioning Sam Raimi's Spider-Man and Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogies.
