Comic-Con 2012: Man of Steel Trailer Description, New Poster
Comic-Con attendees got a special treat today at the Warner Bros. Pictures panel. Director Zack Snyder premiered the long-awaited first trailer and a new poster for Man of Steel, the highly anticipated Superman reboot. The Comic-Con trailer is 2 min. 10 sec., but a shorter 1 min. 27 sec. trailer will debut in theaters in front of Christopher Nolan's final installment of his Batman trilogy The Dark Knight Rises.
Zack Snyder said principal photography has wrapped, and Man of Steel is now in post production. He also told the crowd that the movie's plot is based on a mix of various comic book story lines more than any particular arc. Henry Cavill said he loved the "Death of Superman" and "Red Son" comic book stories.
You can read a description of the trailer below and view the new poster here.
