Official Synopsis For Man Of Steel

Although it pretty much tells us what we already knew about the new Superman film it's still nice to get something official announced from a major blockbuster.

So I'll quit the babbling and get straight down to details shall I? Click read more to check out the official synopsis.

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

Don't forget that the baddies here will be General Zod and his entourage rather than Lex Luthor so here's hoping for a much better Superman than Bryan Singers dreary, soppy effort.
