Like Christopher Nolan, director Zack Snyder has been keeping mum as much as possible for his upcoming SUPERMAN: MAN OF STEEL, which is set for December 2012.
But recently, actress Diane Lane has spilled out some minor details about the premise of the movie. She has indicated that it will be spanning from his birth until his adult life. (http://caseymoviemania.blogspot.com/2011/04/superman-details-from-infancy-to.html)
And now, a source from Bleeding Cool claims they have a new plot outline regarding about the reboot:
"A young reporter named Clark Kent roams the world covering various news stories. When he is compelled to use his secret powers to intervene in a crisis in West Africa, he returns to Smallville to learn more about his origins and the hero he was born to be."
Hmm... whether this is true or not, we can only wait and see.
