The last time Superman streaked across TV screens was way back in 1997, the final season of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, starring Dean Cain and Terri Hatcher.
Current Superman and Man of Steel star Henry Cavill was officially cast in the role in January of 2011. But, seven years earlier Cavill was also cast as Kal-El in a different Superman project. That film, which was written by J.J. Abrams and would've been directed by McG, was eventually canceled and Cavill never shot a frame of Superman. Until many years later when he was called back for a new Superman reboot and given the job. This is just one of the facts packed into the latest episode of You Think You Know Movies, which follows the last son of Krypton in Man of Steel!
It’s been teased and now it’s been confirmed by director Zack Snyder: The first preview for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will debut on April 20 only in IMAX theaters at a “special teaser screening event” that will also include an introduction from Snyder. On Twitter, Snyder revealed exactly how to attend the event, and gave a brief taste of what’s to come:

If Trace Adkins was shy about sharing the more intimate details of his wardrobe, he’d probably be upset with his wife Rhonda today. However, the country giant has proven in the past that he’s willing to let fans see what’s behind the metaphorical curtain (and the actual one). On Monday afternoon, what started as an innocent tweet ended up with a picture of the big man’s underwear.
I can only imagine how many calls 911 or other emergency agencies received from startled New Yorkers as these three flying people cruised over the harbors and bays of New York.
Staff meetings, lectures and classes at school, if only there was a way you could leave these awful boring places and have no one ever question why? We have found the solution!
Crazy, yes....but at least it's not plastic surgery to look like a cat. (Creeeeeepy!) I'm sorry, but if you have enough money to change your whole appearance to look like a super hero, why not use it for something a little more....beneficial...
NaH, just kidding but it made you look. That would be an odd hire if you ask me, getting Rickey Bobby to play the man of steel instead the producers of the new Superman flick have hired someone that most of us won't recognize,at least right now...
