Zack Snyder and Warner Brothers made a shrewd move in picking the ultra-talented Michael Shannon to be General Zod in the upcoming Superman movie, Man of Steel. After noteworthy turns in movies like Bug, Revolutionary Road, and as Kim Fowley in The Runaways, this will hopefully be the film that makes him a household name. Speaking at the RiverRun International Film Festival where he was recently honored with the 2011 Emerging Master Award, Shannon held a Q & A where he spoke for a few minutes about how he learned he won the Superman gig, as well as a little about star Henry Cavill. It's only about three minutes long, but it's kinda funny.
