New "Man of Steel" TV spot

"Iron Man" (and his attendant box office success) was the obvious influence when it came to naming this film "Man of Steel" but the influences pretty much stop there. While Tony Stark is a smarmy, spoiled, self-important little jerk (not that there's anything wrong with that) Kal-el - aka Clark Kent - is his polar opposite: sober-minded, deferential, humble and self-sacrificing. In this new trailer we hear Jor-el (Russell Crowe) exhort his son to be the one thing Tony could care less about being: a role model.

Zach Snyder directs Crowe, Henry Cavill, Kevin Costner, Michael Shannon and Diane Lane in this Christopher Nolan production.


"Man of Steel" opens June 14th.
