A new fan poster for a hypothetical Man of Steel 2 sees Superman return to the Kent farm in Smallville, Kansas. As the follow-up to Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy, and in response to the ever-evolving Marvel Cinematic Universe, Warner Bros./DC films effectively launched the DC Extended Universe with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel in 2013. With a script written by David S. Goyer, the film follows Kal-El/Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) as an extraterrestrial refugee finding his place among humanity when General Zod (Michael Shannon) invades Earth and forces Superman to reveal himself.
Despite its destructive and subsequently divisive third act, Man of Steel has ultimately been deemed a success thanks to Snyder’s contemporary vision and Cavill’s performance. The “SnyderVerse” would continue with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and Justice League, aka “Josstice League (2017).” Unfortunately, both films were reportedly hampered by studio interference and critically panned. In 2021, Snyder released his four-hour cut of Justice League on HBO Max, which is overwhelmingly hailed as superior to its theatrical version and represents the culmination of a story that began in Man of Steel.
