What to expect from Superman

As the DC reboot is releasing digitally soon, let's have a quick peak at the story of the new Superman. The movie introduces Cark Kent struggling with his dual identity as Superman as the world he's living in finds traditional heroism outdated. The movie blends geopolitical themes with classic superhero actions where Superman learns to the hero the world needs.

The reboot uses fictional nations like Boravia of Jarhanpur to reflect real-world conflicts, while exploring themes of oppression, propaganda and the difficulties of modern justice. The antagonist Lex Luthor is a ruthless industrialist who manipulates the public and falsely frames Superman. With help of Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen and Krypto, Cake Kent must fully accept his Kryptonian legacy to stop Lex Luthor and truly become a ray of hope as Superman!
