Zack Snyder has offered a lengthy update on the status of his upcoming Superman reboot to The LA Times, including confirmation that the film will likely be titled (as has long been rumored) The Man of Steel (though that has not been finalized).
Again likening the project to Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins, Snyder reiterates that his film will completely reboot the franchise and won’t contain any traces of previous Superman films.

Theres more to come and I think its consistent in its awesomeness.
