  The Man of Steel soared into SDCC with a first look at footage from the upcoming Superman reboot directed by Zach Snyder. Henry Cavill joined Snyder at Comicon to reveal the footage that “reduced one fan to tears” according The Hollywood Reporter Heat Vision.

  Snyder was asked about using the classic John Williams score and his approach to the film.

  “We had to act as if no film has been made. When we approached it, we had to say ‘this is Superman for the first time,'” Snyder said. “And you can’t say, ‘Oh, now let’s steal a little music.’ So yes, it’s awesome music but Hans (Zimmer) is going to do something awesome.”

This poster premiered along with the new footage. The Man of Steel arrives in 2013. Thanks for Comic Book Resources.
