Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has officially announced the highly anticipated 2D, 3D, and 3D Collector's Edition combo pack releases of director Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, starring Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, Laurence Fishburne, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane and Russell Crowe. The action-packed superhero blockbuster arrives on November 12th.
In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is perhaps the most recognized and revered character of all time. In Snyder's Man of Steel, Clark Kent (Cavill) is a young journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone's imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question: why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents (Costner and Lane), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack by the villainous Kryptonian, General Zod (Shannon). Will Clark's abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as Superman, not only to shine as the world's last beacon of hope but to protect the ones he loves.
The film is produced by Charles Roven, Christopher Nolan, Emma Thomas and Deborah Snyder. The screenplay was written by David S. Goyer from a story by Goyer and Nolan, based upon Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster and published by DC Entertainment. Thomas Tull, Lloyd Phillips and Jon Peters served as executive producers.
Man of Steel will be available as a Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack, a Blu-ray Combo Pack, and as a 3D Limited Collector's Edition. The 3D Collector's Edition includes a limited release metal "S" glyph with a lucite glass stand. All versions include a standard DVD and UltraViolet digital copy. Amazon is also offering an exclusive Action Figure Gift Set, which includes two 1:16 scale figurines -- Superman and General Zod -- from DC Collectibles sculpted by Gentle Giant Studios. Measuring approximately 4.5 inches tall, these hand-painted, PVC figurines are bundled with a 2D Blu-ray combo pack.
The Blu-ray editions of Man of Steel feature 1080p video, lossless audio and the following extras:
