The teaser trailer is on now: you can find it here.
The 2006 summer movie season looks pretty meager to me so far, but this, as well as "X-Men 3" and "Lady in the Water", is one I'm looking forward to.

cool thanks

Looks GREAT!
I love that they can use the Brando audio. Also all the scenes with Supes and the sun. That is where his power comes from, I appreciate the symbolism.
I understand that he is missing for a while because he was fighting the good fight out in space for years saving the world once again. The returning soldier? Perhaps a little symbolism there for us today.
The Last Son of Krypton looks like he is in good hands so far.
That and I love Parker Posey, she plays Luthor's henchwoman.
Awesome! cant wait. They got Batman Begins right. My expectations are raised for big blue now.
Symbolism galore! How about, "I sent you my only son". Good grief.
This same trailer was shown during last night's Smallville.
I love the musical score as well. Very Superman-ish.
I saw the trailer and didn't think much of it. If they have to rely on the old John Williams soundtrack and the old Brando-as-Jor-El voiceover for emotional sweep and gravitas, that tells me that they aren't confident in what they have in the 2006 version.
I'll think I'll just wait for the Dick Donner Superman to come out on Hi-Def Blu-Ray. Besides, Brian Singer's Superman looks too dingy and fruity:
They should have had smallville's Clark Kent to play the part, he pretty well built and has the superman look.
I don't know how they could improve on the original soundtrack, they left it the same, a good decision IMHO.
I thought he leaves earth for mysterious reasons? Did they state he left to fight for earth?
Word has it that Brando's performance from the original Donner "Superman" film will be used in the new movie. Same for the original John Williams soundtrack. Interesting choices by Brian Singer, but he definitely knows what he's doing, and I can't wait to see the finished product.
I had read somewhere it was some kind of war he had to go fight out in space, thus saving the earth in the process.
Belt buckle is wrong. And the red looks more like maroon. And it looks like he is wearing a wetsuit.
Whered ya read that
I think it was an article about the preview at San Diego Comicon this year. Its been too long for me to remember where the link is. Sorry wish I had more. I tried searching for it. I didnt just pull it out of my butt though! LOL Its not something I would have come up with on my own.
I didnt t hink you were but i think itd be awesome if that was what he was doing, fighting people off world.
Fron the official site:
Following a mysterious absence of several years, the Man of Steel comes back to Earth in the epic action-adventure Superman Returns, a soaring new chapter in the saga of one of the world's most beloved superheroes. While an old enemy plots to render him powerless once and for all, Superman faces the heartbreaking realization that the woman he loves, Lois Lane, has moved on with her life. Or has she? Superman's bittersweet return challenges him to bridge the distance between them while finding a place in a society that has learned to survive without him. In an attempt to protect the world he loves from cataclysmic destruction, Superman embarks on an epic journey of redemption that takes him from the depths of the ocean to the far reaches of outer space.
