Many thanks to Screenrant for the following excerpts. Be sure to click the link at the bottom of this article to head on over to the site to read more! Firstly, the director of such styilzed movies as 300 and Watchmen commented on whether he'll be bringing any of his iconic techniques to Superman.



"I think the visual style of 'Superman,' though I can’t say for certain as it’s early, but I kind of feel like — and I did say to the studio – that what’s cool for me and interesting, and odd, is that 'Superman' is probably going to be the most realistic movie I’ve ever made."

"It’s kind of fun that the most realistic movie I probably will make is a movie called 'Superman.' Which shows how crazy my other movies are. Because I guess for him to be credible… He gets more credible by the reality that you can bring to him, you know emotionally, and visually, I think."


As for how Henry Cavill is preparing for the role, Snyder said, "Henry’s gonna be hitting the iron pretty hard." And his wife, Deborah, who will be producing the movie, had this to say:

He’s working right now. They’ve put him on a plan, he’s started in England and as of April 1st we have him full time with us for all that training."


It's also mentioned that the actor is working with Mark Twight, who trained all of the actors in 300, and Damon Caro for the fight training. So, I guess that Snyder's promises of us getting to see a physical Superman who kicks some ass were pretty accurate after all!
