Thanks to Superman: Man of Steel Facebook Page for the heads up.

Ever wondered what it must be like to put on the suit for the first time and know you are about to play Superman? I don't think I would be able to contain myself - here is Henry Cavill's take on that special moment. Thanks to Chris Van Vliet from CBS-19 for asking the question.





As its Halloween, no doubt some of you out there have already put the suit on, but its not quite the same as knowing that come 2013 you will be on the big screen kicking ass is it?

Man of Steel is an upcoming American superhero film under the development of Zack Snyder, Christopher Nolan, and David S. Goyer. Based on the DC Comics character Superman, the film will be a reboot of the Superman film series. Using Chicago as a backdrop, and with production to be based in west suburban Plano, the film entered principal photography in August 2011, for a planned theatrical release on June 14, 2013 by Warner Bros., which also includes IMAX venues.

He's nailing the press. Very nice. The interviewer, slightly douche. Slightly, Jersey Shore.

Superman is returning to glory. The greatest superhero of all time is finally coming back! Superman 1 is the greatest superhero movie in my book, and this one has the potential to become the spiritual successor!

All joking aside, this movie screams positive vibes. I see this being a huge success.

My only hangup, has to do with villain selection, but if they make it something we have not seen before I can buy it.

I want to IH style reboot GL for a sequel and try to tie it with this new Supes movie(if it doesn't suck).

With Bruce Timm and Chris Nolan as producer. Then they can reboot Batman with Bruce & Nolan. I thinnk DC still can save them selfs if WB gets their act together.

Just wait til after the success of the Avengers, WB will figure it out.

This guy is gonna be a kick ass Superman.
@TheRealEnrico, Yeah if DC plans on rebooting Batman for a JL movie, I'd like to see something more along the lines of an Arkham City kind of Batman movie. The feel, setting would be incredible in a live action movie (plus that Batman could kick the movie Batman's ass in a heartbeat lol).

I don't get it. How can you "put on" a CGI costume?

Ummm.... Iconic suit? His suit is a total mess, there's nothing Iconic about his suit. It's even darker than Rouths suit, which isn't a good thing. So sick of emo Superman.
BatLantern28
BatLantern28 - 10/31/2011, 5:00 PM
Wait...a darker suit makes him emo how?

Yeah i've deifnetly warmed to him as Supes. I was not very fond of the choice to begin with mainly because they cast a Brit but he definetly seems to embody a more contemporary interpretation of Supes. I'm also excited for Immortals.

He put on the iconic suit? The S Logo sure even as bumpy and rubbery as it is but the suit is far from iconic. In that case anyone in all blue is wearing the iconic
Superman suit. Really outside the logo and it still being in a shade of blue not much else is thr same "old Superman costume"

I awknowledge the change but it's for the worst.
Ichaos
Ichaos - 11/1/2011, 4:29 AM
The Cavill suit would be good if it didnt look so rubbery, had the actual Superman colors and design, wasn't so poc marked, didn't have the wonderwoman braclets, and didn't have the wierd sensless lines/seams/glued on parts, wasn't so dark and dirty. Change all that and it could br perfect.

Superman has not returned because this a brand new do over Superman. This film has nothing to do with the previous movies. This Superman will be really good! Lol. I can hear the Superman in his voice plus he has his build. Do did you notice how both of the main characters IN a DC comic both have accents? It seems like they only trust out of the country actors! Lol.

Agree with Shaman. Getting pumped for this! Wish we didn't have to wait so long.

Even if this movie blows, my heart officially belongs to Cavill. He IS Superman. They can get a million different directors idefc as long as Cavill can be Supes forever.
