Hi, Bryan Here…
Warner Bros. and IMAX theatres let loose today a bit of the synopsis for Snyder’s reboot of Superman as well as confirmed that it will be fully in IMAX 3D. ‘Man of Steel’ plans to release next summer. And for those of you attending ComiCon this year, be sure to check out the ‘Man of Steel’ panel, for I’m sure you will get some footage and information on what we can expect from the new film. Hopefully a trailer will be released. Below is a release from IMAX and Warner Bros.
In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Henry Cavill) is a young twenty-something journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond his imagination. Transported years ago to Earth from Krypton, a highly advanced, distant planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question ‘Why am I here?’ Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Diane Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner), Clark discovers having extraordinary abilities means making difficult decisions. When the world is in dire need of stability, an even greater threat emerges. Clark must become a Man of Steel, to protect the people he loves and shine as the world’s beacon of hope – Superman.
The IMAX release of MAN OF STEEL will be digitally re-mastered into the image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience® with proprietary IMAX DMR® (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX’s customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.
UPDATE ***
IMAX made an error. ‘Man of Steel will be IMAX, and NOT 3D. I wanted to let you know that IMAX had made an inputting error regarding Man of Steel on their site and the film is not being converted to 3D.
Your thoughts?
