With a host of excitingly original projects (PACIFIC RIM, ELYSIUM) and speculative sequels (STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS, THE HANGOVER PART III) still to come this summer, perhaps the most anticipated of them all is the reboot of a character we’ve seen portrayed countless times in comics, radio, cartoons, television and film. There is a lot resting on Warner Brothers’ Superman origin story MAN OF STEEL, most of all the fate of the JUSTICE LEAGUE.
Everything we’ve seen thus far from Zack Snyder’s sci-fi fantasy has been impressive and the epic cast assembled before a scene was shoot suggested greatness was in the Kyrptonian horizon. I believe Kal-El’s return to the big-screen is going to be the blockbuster to beat this year. What are your thoughts? Will you join him in sun?
As you ponder the question, why not check out these new promo images from the film flying into cinemas from 14th June and led by Henry Cavill. Kevin Costner, Michael Shannon, Russell Crowe, Laurence Fishburne, Amy Adams, Diane Lane, Christopher Meloni and Antje Traue also co-star.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
