Henry Cavill Says MAN OF STEEL Is a Selfless Movie

As we excitedly wait to see more cool stuff from Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, the film's star, Henry Cavill, briefly talked to Total Film about the movie and how Superman will be relatable to fans and moviegoers.

This is not a movie about Zack Snyder directing something, or Henry Cavill playing a character… it’s a selfless movie about a character who is going through what he is going through. He wants to do the right thing, but he’s fallible, like the rest of us. He messes up, and that makes us love him more.

He goes on to talk about his excitement of playing the character saying,

I loved wearing the suit! You put it on every morning and you feel fantastic. I mean, you’re wearing a Superman suit, for goodness sake!

Warner Bros. executives recently saw a screening of the film, and word is they loved it! I can't wait to see it for myself. I've been waiting for a badass Superman film for years, and it sounds like this could be it!

The story follows a young boy who "learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this Earth. As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do. But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind."
