June 10, 2013: Cavill and Shannon Profiles

Man of Steel Across the internet, varying sites have been profiling the stars of the new "Man of Steel" film.

AsiaOne Showbiz did this profile on Henry Cavill. Here's an excerpt:

    "In many people's hearts, Christopher Reeve will always be Superman," Cavill told FiRST.

    "I will be compared for sure. But I've done my job. I can't change anyone's mind.

    "I just hope they will accept that we've told a great version of the story. I hope people will enjoy the whole journey as much as we've enjoyed making it."

    If there were any signs of burden, Cavill masked it well and remained nonchalant about the "many out there" whom he "can't please".

    "If there was any pressure, it was to get the character right - to look like Superman, to feel like him and to get across the soul of Superman," he said.

    Acting as the man in tights and the symbol of hope was "just a job", said Cavill.

Chicago Magazine, meanwhile, did an essay on how Michael Shannon might play Zod. Here's a quote:

    The intensity Given that Zod is hell-bent on capturing Superman, even at the cost of destroying Earth, Shannon will likely channel the tenseness of the mentally ill Peter Evans from 2006's Bug, who convinces Ashley Judd her house is infested with insects.
