Who's The Better Superman?

Warner Bros. has just released the first ever picture of the newest Superman flick, "Man of Steel". Now helm by Zack Snyder, the director of such films as 300, Watchmen and Sucker Punch, this film will not be in any way connected to Bryan Singer's Superman Returns. I really wonder what's wrong with Singer's version when infact I really, really like it.

Shown in the picture donning the red cape this time is Henry Cavill. It looks like he has just came out from being locked up in a massive vault.  The suit has still the dark shades just like the suit used by Brandon Routh in Superman Returns.

With this retelling "again" of the superhero's epic adventures, let us take a look back on the previous actors who have played Superman.

George Reeve has played Superman on the original TV series "The Adventures of Superman" from 1952 to 1958.

The most beloved among Superman actors, Christopher Reeve has played Superman in four major motion pictures.

From 1993 to 1997, we've seen Dean Cain with the beautiful Teri Hatcher on ABC's Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman

Smallville's Tom Welling as the young Clark Kent in the longest running TV series based on a comic character.

"Man of Steel" is still due for release in 2013, with an all power house casts that include big names like Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Julia Ormond and Michael Shannon as the evil General Zod. Yet to be confirmed to join the cast is Russell Crowe who is being rumored to play Jor-El.
