Warner Bros. Pictures is putting a sequel on the fast track for the upcoming Man of Steel where Zack Snyder returns to direct and David S. Goyer is scripting again. According to Deadline, Christopher Nolan's (The Dark Knight) role as producer won't be as much on a scale as it is here as he's working on other projects as well.

As we showed you yesterday, Man of Steel is featured prominently in Entertainment Weekly's summer movie preview issue, which hits newsstands tomorrow. The magazine spoke with several cast and crew members for the cover story, including producer Charles Roven, who revealed that Man of Steel helps set the tone for the long-awaited Justice League superhero ensemble.

"It's setting the tone for what the movies are going to be like going forwards. In that, Man of Steel is definitely a first step. Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight series was deliberately and smartly positioned as a stand-alone. The world the films lived in was very isolated, without any knowledge of other superheroes. What (director) Zack (Snyder) and Chris have done with this film is allow you to really introduce other characters into the same world."

When writer David S. Goyer was asked whether or not there will be any surprise appearances from DC Comics characters,...

We reported that Henry Cavill would grace the cover of the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly as Superman yesterday. Today the iPad edition of the magazine was revealed which contained a set of new photos for Zack Snyder's Superman remake, Man of Steel. Check out Superman in flight as well as Jor-El, and Zod, below.

Man of Steel comes to theaters June 14th, 2013 and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Jadin Gould, Christopher Meloni. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

Man of Steel star Henry Cavill is featured on the cover of Entertainment Weekly's Summer Movie Preview issue, which hits newsstands on Friday. Check out the brand new photo, then read on to see what Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, producer Charles Roven, and director Zack Snyder have to say about this superhero adventure.

Back in November, Michael Shannon, who plays General Zod, revealed he does not actually say, "Kneel before Zod" in the movie. Director Zack Snyder said there is another famous part of the Superman canon that will not be included.

"I'll be honest with you, there's no Kryptonite in the movie."

While Superman's main weakness will not be a part of the film, Henry Cavill revealed that his title character does have some emotional baggage.

"Although he is not susceptible to the frailties of mankind, he is definitely susceptible to the emotional frailties."

Amy Adams also revealed that...

The new trailer for Man of Steel is set to debut in the very near future, although it hasn't been confirmed when it will premiere. Some believe that it may be attached to prints of Warner Bros.' 42, which hits theaters this weekend. A spoiler-filled description of the trailer has been discovered, although there is no way to prove whether or not this is accurate until the footage is actually released.

If you want to wait and see for yourself, stop reading now. If you just can't help yourself, take a look at this unconfirmed description.

"While the logo stuff is coming up we here Clark's voice saying stuff from the second trailer

Voiceovers:

Beared Clark: I have so many questions, where do I come from?

Music kicks in, sounds like the start of Inception trailer music but more epic and less industrial. It keeps building as we start with a huge shot of Krypton.

Warner Bros. has released the first TV spot for Zack Snyder's Superman remake, Man of Steel. This latest look was aired during the Ncaa National Championship game. Get your first look below.

Man of Steel TV Spot

Man of Steel comes to theaters June 14th, 2013 and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Jadin Gould, Christopher Meloni. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

Man of Steel visual effects supervisor Joe Letteri revealed that the upcoming superhero remake is going for a more natural and real tone. Take a look at what he had to say about how director Zack Snyder re-envisioned this iconic story.

"I can't talk too much about Man of Steel yet, and I haven't seen the whole thing yet, but overall it's the story that's most exciting. It's a nice re-envisioning of the story of Superman leaving his homeworld and coming to this new one.

If you look at what Zack [Snyder] has done you'll see that they've abandoned a lot of the pretense that was in the comics and asked 'Can we still make this work?'

They're sticking to realism as much as possible. Fantastic elements are still there but a lot of it that been trimmed back to make it feel as though this actually happened."

Henry Cavill stars as the title character,...

The Mask of General Zod (Michael Shannon) has been revealed, along with a more detailed look at his full body armor and cape as seen in Man of Steel courtesy of three Halloween costume photos. While its not the real thing, these serve as a 'fairly' accurate account of what we can expect to see on screen this summer in Zack Snyder's DC Comics superhero adventure, which updates Superman for a whole new generation.

After co-writing the screenplays for Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, David S. Goyer moved right on to another superhero franchise with the Superman reboot Man of Steel. The screenwriter revealed in a recent interview that they are trying to maintain the same level of secrecy on this new Superman movie that Christopher Nolan had with his Batman franchise.

"It's something Chris (Nolan) tried hard to do with the Batman films. I'm genuinely pleased with how much secrecy we've been able to maintain. There's so much of the movie that people don't know, that hasn't been touched upon. The trailer's just the tiniest, tiniest tip of the iceberg."

When asked if Man of Steel will have a darker tone like the Batman trilogy, the writer revealed that would have been inappropriate for a Superman movie.

"Relatable and realistic doesn't necessarily mean dark. I think it would be inappropriate for us to...

The cover story for this month's print edition of Total Film showcases the highly-anticipated Superman reboot Man of Steel. Today, we have new photos from the magazine, and interview segments with star Henry Cavill and director Zack Snyder. Check out these latest pics, which also feature Amy Adams as Lois Lane, then read on to see what the actor and filmmaker had to say about their very human and relatable Clark Kent.

Filmmaker Zack Snyder says fans will be able to relate to this Superman more than past versions of the iconic DC Comics character.

"We've tried to make a Superman movie where he does stuff and you go, 'Yeah, if I was Superman, that's what I'd do.' Even though he's an alien, he's more relatable, more human."

Henry Cavill revealed that this story doesn't betray the comic books, but is modern and grounded.

"This is a Superman for a modern age.

Kevin Costner's Pa Kent and Diane Lane's Ma Kent take center stage in a new batch of photos for director Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. Henry Cavill's Clark Kent and Amy Adams' Lois Lane are also showcased in these shots, which features a new image of Superman's costume.

A number of Harper tie-in children's books for Man of Steel have been released, offering artwork of both Superman (Henry Cavill) and Zod (Michael Shannon) as they battle it out for Smallville. Here, we get a good look at Zod's armor and a tease of Superman's powers, which include the ability to blow up tanks and helicopters with his heat vision. Titles include 'The Early Years', 'Friends and Foes', and 'The Fate of Krypon', in a series meant to teach kids how to read.

Last night, Russell Crowe appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, where he talked briefly about his role as Jor-El in Man of Steel. While he didn't share anything terribly specific, the actor did tell a humorous story about his son's reaction to the news that he is playing Superman's dad. Watch the interview, which also includes a brief glimpse at the actor's action figure for Man of Steel.

The Tonight Show With Jay Leno: Episode 21.101 - Russell Crowe Is Superman's Father

About playing Superman's dad Jor-El, Russell Crowe shared a funny story about his son, Charlie's reaction to the news.

"Its a reboot of the franchise with Zack Snyder, who did the 300 film, with a young English fellow called Henry Cavill as Superman, or Kal-El, as I would call him, because he's my son. Times have changed. I'm Superman's dad. I said to my son Charlie, "I'm going to be Superman's dad.

Last week, we showed you some of the new action figures that will be hitting the shelves this summer for Man of Steel, director Zack Snyder's Superman reboot, which redefines this iconic DC Comics character. Today, another action figure photo has surfaced, offering our first look at Faora, played by Antje Traue, in costume. Take a look at this toy from Mattel's Movie Masters line, along with a description and pricing details. You can also read on for more Man of Steel news, as star Amy Adams appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to talk about her role as Lois Lane.

"Movie Masters figures are designed with the ultimate authentic detail and supreme quality to bring fans' favorite characters to life. This assortment features heroes and villains from the movie Man of Steel. A high level of articulation lets fans of all ages pose the figures in countless ways for fan-tastic fun!

Man of Steel is a true reboot in every sense of the word, offering a new take on the iconic DC Comics hero Superman and the characters that inhabit his word. With this revisionist take on the material comes new costumes for all of the key players. While we've gotten quite a few peeks at Henry Cavill's classic red and blue tights, we have yet to get a really good look at Superman's biological father Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and the main villain of this adventure, Zod (Michael Shannon). Leave it to the movie's toys to ruin some of the surprise. Here, we have the three main characters seen as action figures from Mattel's Movie Masters series, as well as Funko's Pop! Vinyl Superman and Zod, and a Lego playset that teases the epic showdown between these two Kryptonian warriors. Interesting to note, watch the progression of Zod's facial hair...

A new photo has debuted from Man of Steel, which reveals Amy Adams as Lois Lane inside The Daily Planet offices, clutching her iPad. We don't yet know the role The Daily Planet will play in Zack Snyder's superhero adventure, or if the once popular newspaper has been reduced to an internet news blog. Perhaps we'll hear more about this aspect of the story the closer we get to Man of Steel's June 14 release date.

Man of Steel comes to theaters June 14th, 2013 and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Jadin Gould, Christopher Meloni. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

Warner Bros. has put the fate of the potential Justice League film on the shoulders of Zack Snyder's superman reboot Man of Steel.

Just like Marvel's The Avengers, which used Iron Man as a launching pad, they will use the success of The Dark Knight films and the potential success of Man of Steel to gauge whether or not fans will react positively to the DC superhero mashup.

Studio execs are planning the Justice League tentpole, which includes DC Comics' superheros Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, the Flash and the Green Lantern, to the order of Marvel's The Avengers. Gangster Squad's Will Beall is currently penning the script with no director attached as of yet. Although Green Lantern turned out to be a failure, it seems that they are looking to exploit the DC library further down the road.

If you feel they should move forward with the film,...

This week's issue of Empire Magazine features a cover story on Man of Steel. We have two versions of the cover featuring Henry Cavill as Superman (one of which is cover-line free), along with a new photo of Russell Crowe as Superman's father Jor-El, and one of Michael Shannon as the villain Zod. Check out this latest look at Zack Snyder's DC Comics reboot.

Man of Steel comes to theaters June 14th, 2013 and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Jadin Gould, Christopher Meloni. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

The Motion Picture Association of America has officially given Zack Snyder's Superman project Man of Steel a PG-13 Rating.

The superhero reboot received the rating for intense sequences of sci-fi violence, action and destruction, and for some language.

Man of Steel tells the story of an alien infant who is raised on Earth, and grows up with superhuman powers. He sets out to use these abilities to protect his adopted world.

Man of Steel comes to theaters June 14th, 2013 and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Jadin Gould, Christopher Meloni. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

We know that Man of Steel will star Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Russell Crowe as Jor-El, and Michael Shannon as Zod. One comic book character we haven't heard anything about is Jimmy Olsen, the photojournalist who works with Clark at The Daily Planet in the DC Comics. Today, an interesting theory has developed that Jimmy Olsen is being changed to Jenny Olsen for Man of Steel. Actress Rebecca Buller is listed as Jenny Olsen on the Man of Steel IMDb page, where there is no listing for Jimmy Olsen. There is also this blurry image from the trailer that shows a woman who appears to be Rebecca Buller running from an exploding building with Laurence Fishburne's Perry White, the Editor-in-Chief of The Daily Planet. Take a look at the photo, along with one of the actress' headshots for comparison, then read on for more information.

Warner Bros. has six months before the superhero reboot Man of Steel brings Superman back to theaters for the first time since 2006's Superman Returns. Star Russell Crowe, who plays Superman's father Jor-El, recently revealed that this version of the iconic DC Comics superhero is much different than previous versions, because it delves into the psychology of Superman.

"It's very complicated, it's really complex. I don't think anybody has really tried to get into the psychology of what it must be like to be Superman and what people would really respond like in a modern society if somebody like that just popped up. I think Zack Snyder was given a great deal of responsibility because when it comes to comic book heroes and superhero films the top of the food chain is Superman. I think the biggest indicator for me of how it's looking is that the financier of the film,...

We have exactly six months before Man of Steel hits theaters in June, starring Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman. DC Comics has revealed a new statue they are releasing in May, featuring a 1:6 scale version of Henry Cavill in full costume as Superman.

We have a new look at Henry Cavill as Superman in director Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. We've seen a similar image before, in both a recent poster and the latest trailer that was released. None the less, Superman being hauled off in handcuffs by military police is an instantly iconic image that ranks up there with some of the best Golden Age artwork. Why not take a look at it from another angle.

Man of Steel comes to theaters June 14th, 2013 and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Michael Shannon, Diane Lane, Kevin Costner, Jadin Gould, Christopher Meloni. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

Warner Bros. has emerged victorious in a legal battle with the estate of Superman co-creator Jerry Siegel. This essentially means they can move forward with the franchise after this summer's Man of Steel without any further legal problems.

Earlier today, the the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a lower court should not have granted Jerry Siegel's estate permission to re-capture the rights to Superman in 2008, since DC Comics and the Jerry Siegel family entered into an agreement back in 2001. We reported in October that another court ruled against the estate of the other Superman co-creator, Joe Shuster.

Both estates have tried to relinquish the rights to this popular character for years, exploiting the "termination" provision of the 1976 Copyright Act, which allows artists to get back the rights they gave up early in their careers. Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel sold the rights to Superman for very little compensation in the 1930s.

Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures have released a new photo of Henry Cavill as Superman in this summer's DC Comics reboot Man of Steel. Directed by Zack Snyder, this updating of the iconic superhero follows an extraterrestrial infant who is raised on Earth, a home he comes to love and guard despite not being immediately accepted or understood by the human race.

One of the first names we heard associated with Man of Steel was producer Christopher Nolan, who was described as a "mentor" for this highly-anticipated project back in February 2010. The news got fanboys worldwide excited, due to the massive success of his Batman blockbuster The Dark Knight. Today, the producer revealed that this Superman project is a much greater undertaking that his Batman trilogy, while praising director Zack Snyder's work at the helm.

"Zack was the perfect man to take this on. He is unbelievably skilled at creating a coherent, cohesive world -- whether it's a very stylized world, like 300, or something that's more challenging, more varied, like he did with Watchmen. In my honest appraisal, taking on Superman and creating that world is far more difficult than creating the world of The Dark Knight. He has a lot of finishing to do on the movie -- it has...

Christopher Nolan has praised director Zach Snyder for his work on the upcoming Superman film Man of Steel starring Henry Cavill. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the director of the Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises, whose producing helmer Znyder's film said "Zack was the perfect man to take this on; he is unbelievably skilled at creating a coherent, cohesive world. Whether it’s a very stylized world, like 300, or something that’s more challenging, more varied, like he did with Watchmen."

A second poster for Zack Snyder's Man of Steel starring Henry Cavill This is somewhat of a peculiar second teaser poster, and very lackluster for the most part I would think. Still, at least it's something for the Zack Snyder film, but fans should be given more tasty stuff to sink their teeth into to get the hype for the Superman flick which opens in theaters come June 14th, 2013. Also in the cast of the David S. Goyer-scripted film are Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Russell Crowe as Jor-El, Kevin Costner as Jonathan Kent, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Michael Shannon as General Zod, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Christopher Meloni as Colonel Hardy, Ayelet Zurer as Lara Lor-Van and Jadin Gould as Lana Lang.

Goyer-scripted film are Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Russell Crowe as Jor-El, Kevin Costner as Jonathan Kent, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Michael Shannon as General Zod, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Christopher Meloni as Colonel Hardy, Ayelet Zurer as Lara Lor-Van and Jadin Gould as Lana Lang. Warner Bros. Pictures' Man of Steel has a huge $225 million production budget to cover and is produced by Christopher Nolan (Batman Begins,...

A New director and writer have boarded Relativity Media's planned reboot of The Crow.

The film is back on track after Relativity settled a legal battle with The Weinstein Company, which had distributed the original 1994 movie through Miramax and claimed it owned all the rights.

The lawsuit was settled out of court and Relativity has now announced that F. Javier Gutierrez has signed on to direct the film with Jesse Wigutow making a deal to pen the script.

Gutierrez made his directing debut on the 2008 apocalyptic meteorite thriller Before the Fall and will be the third man to take the helm of The Crow following the departures of Stephen Norrington and Juan Carlos Fresnadillo.

No casting has yet been unveiled although Bradley Cooper, Mark Wahlberg, Channing Tatum and Jason Statham were previously linked to the project. Brandon Lee starred in the 1994 version and was killed in a gun accident on set.

Jadin Gould a Young Lana Lang for Snyder’s Superman: Man of Steel

Batman has Catwoman and Talia. Spider-Man has Gwen Stacy and Mary Jane Watson. Superman has Lois Lane and Lana Lang. Now we have learned that both those “L” ladies will make it to the big screen for Zack Snyder’s film, Superman: Man of Steel.

When you discover who will portray a young Lana Lang on the big screen you may start to wonder, as I did, if part of Man of Steel would include Spuerman’s childhood on the Kent farm. The actress’s name is Jadin Gould and she is a teenager. Her acting credits include Battle: Los Angeles, The Mentalist and Chuck.

According to SlashFilm, Gould will play Lana in at least one flashback of Clark’s younger years, growing up in Smallville. In fact, actor Dylan Sprayberry will play the young Man of Steel.

The Superman Homepage claims to have received word that young actor Jack Foley will play a young Pete Ross in Man of Steel, following earlier reports that Jadin Gould is a young Lana Lang and Dylan Sprayberry will be the young Clark Kent. Foley's only past role was as "15 Year Old #2" in 2011's 30 Minutes or Less. Stay tuned for more updates and sound off with your thoughts below.

Zack Snyder‘s Man of Steel has been in production for quite a while, but we’re getting some pretty late casting news for the project. After bringing on Richard Schiff in what sounded like a fairly nondescript role, Jadin Gould has joined the cast as the young Lana Lang. [SupermanSuperSite, /Film]

The actress will join Henry Cavill (Superman/Clark Kent) and Amy Adams (Lois Lane) in the Watchmen director’s adaptation of the beloved superhero franchise. Her character is set to appear in a flashback of Clark Kent’s childhood, in his hometown of Smallville, alongside Dylan Sprayberry, who has been cast as the young Kent.

For those unfamiliar with the project, here’s the official synopsis.

“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.
