Exclusive: 'Man of Steel' Will Reveal A New Krypton & More!

Exclusive: 'Man of Steel' Will Reveal A New Krypton & More! Earlier today we posted that Diane Lane briefly spoke with E! Online stating that she has in fact read the script for the new Superman movie titled "Man of Steel," which Zack Snyder is directing and Christopher Nolan producing.

Lane of course is playing Martha Kent, the adoptive mother of the titled hero played by Henry Cavill.

She gave hints at the film's structure by saying:

"It does cover the entire range of years, from infancy on."

So because she said that you have all these bloggers and film sites saying that we will see a young Clark Kent once more. Well if it’s a reboot then of course you'll see a young Clark, its only obvious.

After this story broke online I got to speak with my reliable source about the project once again. For you readers who have doubts about the validity of this source's info, this is the same individual that revealed to us Kevin Costner was cast as 'Pa' Kent, Lois Lane would appear in the film and Zod would be the villain, a major scoop that was finally proven valid with the news of Michael Shannon's casting a few days ago. This source also revealed that along with Zod there will be a Kryptonian villainess. I know that this source has no reason to lie to be about anything.

Being that the "Man of Steel" is a reboot/origin story or whatever you want to call it, they will show you the whole story all over again. Well not the way Richard Donner showed you but it will have some sort of similarities to "Batman Begins."

Here is what my source told me:[list][*]You will see JOR-EL and his wife, Lara.[*]Daniel Day-Lewis was looked at for JOR-EL and not the villain.[*]Krypton will not be a crystal planet like the Donner film; this Krypton will PROBABLY look like the Coruscant skyline from Star Wars. (See image below)[*]The Kryptonian villainess is not URSA...Well sort of. The villainess is FAORA.

In the movies Superman and Superman II, the female Kryptonian villainess URSA is based on Faora.

Here is some history on Faora:

Faora Hu-Ul was a serial killer born on the planet Krypton. A self-professed "man-hater", she targeted only male Kryptonians and ran a concentration camp where she kept other Kryptonians as slaves. Faora Hu-Ul claimed over twenty-three lives before she was arrested. Faora was sentenced to over three-hundred years of incarceration inside the Phantom Zone - the longest sentence ever handed to a female prisoner, and the second-longest sentence over all. As Faora was trapped inside the Phantom Zone, she, along with many others, survived the destruction of Krypton.

Faora was an expert at the Kryptonian martial art of Horo-Kanu, which utilized the pressure points on the Kryptonian body. This made her an extremely dangerous foe for Superman to face in hand-to-hand combat—he was forced to flee from their first encounter.

I was also told that she is a bad ass in the script and that she is Zod's "right hand bitch."
