Right now, Superman’s only future appearances are in the Justice League movies, and while Man of Steel 2 has been talked about, it’s not officially on the DC film slate yet.

So even though that movie did reunite moviegoers with Clark Kent in his personal and superhero life, it’s not technically a self-contained Superman movie. As the months passed, it became clear that the Man of Steel follow-up wouldn’t be what was originally Man of Steel 2, and eventually its title was announced: Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

'I'm really looking foward to seeing it, it's a massive undertaking. I think the biggest indicator for me of how it's looking is that the financier of the film has sent me gushing emails he just loves it.'Ĭrowe also went on to reveal a bit about the planet Krypton and just how impressive Superman's flight is going to be:

I think Zack Snyder was given a great deal of responsibility because, when it comes to comic book heroes and superhero films, the top of the food chain is Superman. I don't think anybody has really tried to get into the psychology of what it must be like to be Superman and what people would really respond like in a modern society if somebody like that just popped up. 'It's very complicated, it's really complex. In a recent interview with Reelz for Crowe's upcoming film Broken City, he talked about Snyder's realistic approach to Man of Steel:
