New ‘Man of Steel’ Poster Has Superman Flying High
How many 'Man of Steel' posters have arrived in the past week? Three? Four? Fifteen? Well, it's another day, so here's another poster for the upcoming superhero blockbuster! Check it out below.
The new poster is similar to its predecessors in the fact that it's not particularly exciting. A low angle shot of Superman flying toward a blinding white sky, it's a clean but not particularly original design. This particular one-sheet begs the question of what would be more effective: a dozen generic posters that raise awareness but do little to raise excitement or a single, beautifully designed and instantly iconic poster that will forever be attached to the film. Warner Bros. is undoubtedly taking the easier and safer route. After all, 'The Dark Knight' and 'The Dark Knight Rises' cleaned up at the box office without having any particularly great posters.
'Man of Steel' arrives on June 14th and stars Henry Cavill, Amy Adams and Michael Shannon. What do you think of the posters so far? Would you put any on your wall?
