First Look: Henry Cavill as the Man of Steel

Hitting theaters on June 14, 2013 (that’s nearly two years away, for those who want to mark their calendars early) is the highly-anticipated Superman reboot, Man of Steel, directed by Zack Snyder (Watchmen; Sucker Punch). Taking over from Brandon Routh (who last played the man in tights) is Henry Cavill (of “The Tudors” and Tarsem Singh’s upcoming Immortals), who is surrounded by an all-star cast, including Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane and Kevin Costner as his parents, Michael Shannon as General Zod and Russell Crowe as Jor-El. Below is the first-ever photo released from the movie, with the Man of Steel looking particularly buff. Take a look!
