The Man of Steel now has an enemy: Warner Bros. announced Sunday that they’ve locked in the Oscar-nominated Michael Shannon to play General Zod opposite Henry Cavill’s Superman in the reboot.

Coming off the dispelled rumor that the role had gone to Viggo Mortensen, the role has been locked-in for the actor who’s appeared in television and film, such as Boardwalk Empire, The Runaways, and Revolutionary Road. Of course, this prominent role in the 2012 reboot will be nothing short of a breakthrough on his resume.

With the confirmation of Shannon for the role of Zod, also comes the additional benefit of the official acknowledgment of the film’s villain. He will now get set to take on Henry Cavill’s Superman in a re-imagining of the Superman lore that’s sure to be action-packed.

Director Zack Snyder comments:

“Zod is not only one of Superman’s most formidable enemies, but one of the most significant because he has insights into Superman others don’t. Michael is a powerful actor who can project both the intelligence and the malice of the character, making him perfect for the role.”

Michael Shannon will now carry on the live-action legacy of the exiled Kryptonian war criminal made iconic by the masterful performance of Terence Stamp in 1981′s Superman II. It will be interesting to see what he adds to that legacy when he tackles the megalomaniacal super-powered elitist.

Superman: Man of Steel is set to hit sometime in December of 2012.

Loki wrecks serious havoc in this second trailer for Thor & Loki: Blood Brothers, Every time I see these trailers it gets me more hype!!! Check out this new trailer and see why Asgard’s favorite son is the mightiest Avenger of all!

Bottom line, looks dope!!!!

This title sequence was made for Super Punch's contest for artists to create their own take on X-Men: First Class posters. I love how they used a lo-fi version of the 90′s Animated X-Men theme song, genius!

This sequence was designed to give a very brief primer on the time period, the setting, as well as show the relationships of the characters in this film, as they are very different from the previous movies and audiences shouldn’t be confused as to why Professor X and Magneto, enemies in the original trilogy, are the best of friend in this prequel.

Spider-Man vs Banksy? Not really, but someone turned our friendly neighborhood wall crawler into a cool piece of street art.
