Much like fellow DC comic book movie title The Dark Knight Rises, Zack Snyder’s Superman: Man of Steel has been the subject of much speculation and a whole lot in the way of unsubstantiated rumor. Just yesterday there was “news” that the Superman reboot would essentially amount to an adaptation of Geoff John’s “Superman: Secret Origin”.
There’s another supposed Man of Steel plot synopsis currently making its way round the Web right now – along with a slightly more credible rumor that newcomer Adam Harris is in the midst of auditioning to play Lex Luthor in the film.
Here’s the Man of Steel plot description that’s popped up on both MovieNewz and Superman Superworld:
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 twenty-something 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?

I want a violent Superman. Not overly violent, but one that actually gets into a few scraps. I see this as being a still shot from one of Supes’ fights with Zod, hence why he bleeds.
Tried my best to recreate the suit but I just couldn’t be bothered to try and get the cape just right. The eye beams were based on how Cyclops does his, but with sparks.
New information has been given about Zack Snyder’s Superman movie Man Of Steel from a source that is working on film that details some key scenes that will be shot in Illinois soon. Warning: Spoilers!!!
A source involved filming, has discussed scenes being shot for Man of Steel. The source, whose name and role is being kept confidential, is involved with how various scenes are technically executed. With this information being revealed, part of the story line comes into clearer focus.
While filming has been going on this week at Sugar Grove and is moving back the Kent Farm and Sandwich, IL at Valley West Community Hospital, preparation is well underway some big action scenes being shot later this month. Valley West Community Hospital already issued an email alert concerning shooting at the hospital, saying windows would be blacked out, but no major explosions would be occurring. Those effects will be added in. The source confirms “that is being worked on tonight. Nothing will be big there because they can’t actually blow up the hospital. So they’re just going to be using some controlled and smaller pyro’s and then digitally altering it to make it look like a big explosion took place.”
In Plano, the 7-Eleven set that has been constructed is now being wired with explosives, says the source “wiring of explosives starts [Today] at the 7-Eleven and it will be blown up in shooting”. This occurs during scenes to be filmed in Plano when the military arrives in Smallville to take on Zod and Faora with Superman caught in the middle of the fight.
How secretive was the filming of the new Superman reboot, “Man of Steel,” on Route 56 in Sugar Grove earlier this week?
Sean Michels, village president of Sugar Grove, was left in the dark on what exactly took place during the shoot, and has been following rumors like the rest of us for his Superman updates.
“It’s been very hush-hush,” said Michels, who drove by the filming area but didn’t visit the set. “They didn’t tell us what they were shooting or who was in the scene. We’ve only heard rumors.”
Route 56 was closed between Galena Boulevard and Route 47 for filming Monday through Wednesday in Sugar Grove, a village of about 9,000 in the Western suburbs. Traffic and spectators were kept at a distance with help from state troopers; some people attempted to catch a glimpse from a walking path in a nearby field. A few were more secretive and hid with their cameras among the bushes in the field.
Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures have provided the first look at the new Man of Steel, revealing star Henry Cavill as Superman in the film from director Zack Snyder.
