There has been a casting call sent out for the new Superman movie, Man of Steel, with it revealing minor plot details about the currently in production blockbuster. The synopsis below was originally posted by supermanhomepage.com and then by the folks at Darkhorizons.com
"In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Cavill) is a young twentysomething journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone's imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question - Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Costner), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack. Will his abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as 'Superman,' not only to shine as the world's last beacon of hope but to protect the ones he loves."
Nothing majorly given away, but it's a great cast, and despite the mess that was Sucker Punch, I have huge faith in Zack Snyder as a director. I just rewatched Watchmen the other night and it's still the best superhero movie ever made YEAH I SAID IT!
