New 'Man of Steel' Poster Arrives

Things don't look too good for Superman.

There's a new teaser poster for Man of Steel hitting the internet.

No Caption Provided

The shot looks a little fuzzy but apparently this shot was seen in the footage shown at Comic-Con this past summer.

As part of an exclusive reveal for the home video release of The Dark Knight Rises, the new Man of Steel poster was revealed on the Dark Knight Facebook page. The movie will be in theaters on June 14, 2013.

Oh lord. They are going to do the whole 'You're super powered, we are going to arrest you' and 'Okay, I'm a good guy, so I will let you"

My interest in this movie has fell.

new 52 suit.? if so then awsome

It's not the New 52 suit. It's darker and it doesn't have a belt to break everything up. If they added a red belt on there, it would completely change my opinion on the suit. I'm super excited to see this, though. Man of Steel is going to be amazing.

Superman in handcuffs? If I wasn't hooked before (which I doubt) I sure am now!

My guess, he's been framed for Zod's crimes and is going quietly to avoid it getting messy.

guess it looks ok...a little bit on the underwhelming side though...

I don't know why it bothers me now, but the lack of underwear is kinda off putting to me.

@G_Money_Christmas: I actually think that the belt is there, but that his hands are covering it up. I remember seeing it on there in another pic of him.

@JLDoom: Yeah, he fought some guy who was from a rival race of the Kryptonians, whom were actually responsible for Krypton's destruction.

And, lol, how is Zod not an alien warlord?

The earth one dude had a whole alien armada, whereas zod usually goes solo or with his two buddies

It's a cool picture, but it's kind of silly in a way. Superman in handcuffs is funny. He could break them with ease.

it's cool because it actually shows who superman is and how he cares more about justice than about himself. he's clearly giving himself in because he believes that telling his side of the story (the truth) will free him. i'm pretty toasted atm so maybe i'm lookin into this too much but yea..truth! justice and the american way! yehhh....i'm irish

God, he's the spitting image of Superman. Two thumbs to the person heading the casting department. And I trust that Nolan is not going to "make Superman into Batman." He's not stupid. Still excited to see DC's powerhouse hero gain some respect with the general population again, too. About time.

Yup, enhanced package as well.

Women love it!

I'm sure they'll do some photoshopping wonders like they had to in Superman Returns with the suit. Gotta keep things at a decent rating for the masses of unsuspecting children and mothers bound to view this film!! xD

It takes place not long after that photo of him in that dented safe. He gets punched or something of that nature by Zod or another Kryptonian and goes flying through several buildings and landing into that safe and denting it considerably as he stumbles of it, I believe it's not long after the armed forces come, and since it's Supermans first outing, they obviously have no idea if he's friend or foe, and Superman being superman, obviously has no problems with them cuffing him, it's not because he can't break out of it, it's because he's establishing a trust with authority. This looks awesome, peronally!

In all honesty, The superman Narrative sucks. The only good story event in it is the orphan of dead planet idea. I can't see this comming close to what Nollan did with Batman.

There is more than enough ways to trap superman the most obvious: Kryptonite handcuffs...

I think it is just the attachment bracket that the military uses for night vision etc...

I think he is trying to go along with the human protocol on things and prove that our system works.
