I don't read many Superman comic nowadays, but anything written by Geoff Johns will certainly get my attention. The superstar scribe and driving force behind DC's superhero line wrote one of the great Action Comics arcs back in 2008 titled Brainiac, which saw Superman's alien archenemy return and destroy practically everything Clark Kent holds dear. The story's been adapted into DC's next animated film, Superman: Unbound, and now we have a new trailer for it.
Matt Bomer, recently seen ripping off his gear in Magic Mike, will voice Superman/Clark Kent. Stana Katic will be voicing Lois Lane, while her Castle co-star Molly Quinn takes on Supergirl. It'll be interesting to see just how much they stick to the comic's storyline, which includes the death of a major character. The animation doesn't look all that polished, and the voicework doesn't really fit the characters. Nothing against Bomer, but he's no Superman, at least not based on this footage.
Superman: Unbound arrives on DVD/Blu-Ray later this year after debuting at WonderCon.
