Man of Steel Plot Details Revealed

An open casting call for Zack Snyder's Man of Steel has revealed some possible plot details for the Superman reboot. Superman Homepage has posted the casting sheet for the Vancouver Island area:

In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Henry 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 (Diane Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Kevin 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.

The Warner Bros. Pictures, DC Entertainment, and Legendary Pictures feature film Man of Steel will be holding open casting calls in Nanaimo and Ucluelet on Vancouver Island.

    This is bare bones at best, but then again I didn't expect any in depth details as of yet. I don't think they've even started shooting.

    do really think they're going to give away all the little details that are going to actually make this movie interesting. Nolan said he came up with a story idea that hadn't been done before so.... in Nolan we trust.

    @angelsbleedtoo Goyer walked away. The writer of 300 took over.

    We all know the story of Superman. The film is still going to be great I think. You've got David Goyer who wrote Batman Begins as its writer and Zack Snyder who directed 300. These guys are going to make magic I think. Let's wait and see..
