Henry Cavill as Superman |
The official plot synopsis for Zack Snyder's
Man of Steel has been revealed...
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.
