The fate of DC and Warner Bros. big screen superhero aspirations certainly lies with the success of The Man of Steel. With its only currently established cinema superhero franchise (Batman) in need of a retooling after the departure of director/producer Christopher Nolan, Warner Bros. desperately needs Snyder’s Superman reboot to succeed. Fortunately both this new trailer and the previous one (see "'Man of Steel' Trailer Wows!") make the film look very promising, and Warner Bros. is pulling out all the promotional stops including heavy TV advertising and plenty of posters such as the character designs that were also revealed today (see "New 'Man of Steel' Poster for Supes").
