Zack Snyder Confirms 'Man of Steel' For 3D And IMAX


Warner Bros. had a choice when it came to Man of Steel: Go massive, like The Avengers, and blow out the presentation in 3D and IMAX; or respect the purity of the filmed image, like The Dark Knight Rises and put Zack Snyder’s anticipated Superman movie out in traditional 2D. Care to guess which direction they chose? So in a move that should surprise absolutely no one, Warner Bros, Legendary Pictures, and director Zack Snyder have confirmed today in a press release that Man of Steel, their blockbuster take on Superman that Nolan himself is producing, will also show on IMAX screens when it drops on June 14th, 2013. Also not that big of a shock: they also confirmed it will be presented in 3D.

"The film is going to be a visually exciting experience in all formats: 2D, 3D and IMAX. Anticipating how audiences today embrace 3D, we designed and photographed the movie in a way that would allow 'Man of Steel' to captivate those movie goers, while respecting fans who prefer a more traditional cinematic experience. We've taken great measures to ensure the film and the story come first, and 3D is meant as an enhancement."

Based on the early teaser trailer and what at Comic-Con, it's looking like Snyder may have pulled off something spectacular with this, and the IMAX format seems to be the perfect fit for his grand, sweeping vision of Superman. Which format will you choose when seeing Man of Steel?
