Zack Snyder talks raw flying style in Man Of Steel
“It’s a more violent experience”
Zack Snyder speaks to our pals at SFX in their upcoming Man Of Steel issue, and they’ve teased a snippet of their interview online.
The quote that particularly caught our eye was when director Snyder talked about the new approach to one of Superman’s coolest powers: flight.
“It’s a more violent experience. It’s raw,” Snyder teases. “It takes effort to do it, and that’s what we were really going for. It’s almost like there’s this kind of Right Stuff quality to it.
“He’s constantly booming around, accelerating. You think he’s going as fast as he can and then it’s like ‘Yeeaahh!’ He’s always got an extra gear he can use.”
Man Of Steel opens in the UK on 14 June 2013.
The new issue of SFX magazine is available from 1 May 2013.
