A New Superman, Not Quite the Perfect Hero
Superman, the origin of all heroes. What destiny brought him into existence, what kind of childhood did he have, and how did he become Superman?──The secret of his birth, unknown until now, and the full story of this hero are finally revealed.
British actor Henry Cavill takes on the role of the new Superman. Amy Adams plays reporter Lois Lane, who tries to scoop the story of Clark's existence. Kevin Costner and Diane Lane portray the Kent couple, his adoptive parents who try to protect Clark with all their love. Russell Crowe plays his biological father, Jor-El. A cast of rising stars and acclaimed Hollywood actors collide to create a passionate human drama that will move your heart.
And what truly takes your breath away are the "world's fastest" high-speed action sequences created by two genius creators, Christopher Nolan and Zack Snyder. Breaking through skyscrapers, destroying entire cities, and soaring beyond the ozone layer, this unparalleled hyper-speed action is simply astounding.
