Soaring into theaters on the back of Christopher Nolan's Batman finale, "The Dark Knight Rises," Warner Bros. is giving
audiences a look at its upcoming superhero reboot "Man of Steel" with not
one, but two trailers.
The images are essentially the same, gauzy looks at a farm and Superman's day
job as a fisherman, but the narrations are different.
In one, Russell Crowe, who plays Jor-El, the
biological father of the famous defender of "truth, justice and the American
Way," rhapsodizes that Superman "will give the people an ideal to strive
towards ... in time, you will help them accomplish wonders."
In the other, Kevin Costner, who is taking on the
role of Superman's adoptive father, Jonathan Kent, says, "One day, you're going
to have to make a choice. You'll have to decide what kind of man you want to
grow up to be. Whoever that man is, good character or bad, is going to change
the world."
Rev up the inspirational music and a dramatic shot of Henry Cavill cutting through the
sky.
Directed by Zack Snyder ("300") and produced by Nolan, "Man of Steel" hits
theaters in Summer 2013.
