Set to be produced by Christopher Nolan, writer and director of the highly praised Dark Knight Trilogy, and director Zack Snyder (Watchmen, 300), Man Of Steel, reboot of the 1978 blockbuster, Superman: The Movie (or simply Superman) and set for a release date of June 14, 2013, has now been given an official website, as well as a new synopsis. The film is rumoured to establish an entire universe of DC Comics based films, leading up to the announced Justice League crossover film. This had been previously done by DC Entertainment's rivals, Marvel Studios, and, before that, DC themselves in their animated universe, involving shows such as Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series and Justice League: Unlimited, only without leading up to any particular event.
The Official Site includes a teaser image of Superman, a link to the films Facebook and Twitter pages, the synopsis, and the trailer. Note that you have to click the link to the trailer on the site to get to the synopsis.

About The Author:
Welcome, I am Darkknight2149. I am primarily a fan of comic books and their various adaptations, as well as horror and other classic film franchises.
As far as the "DC vs. Marvel" rivalry goes, I'm really not biased when it comes to studios and publishers. Preferences are fine, but I've never understood the basing of opinions purely by the studio/publisher that makes it.
