New photos of Benedict Cumberbatch and Henry Cavill from Star Trek Into Darkness and Man of Steel

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Two of the most anticipated movies this summer each have a new picture that has been released: STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS and MAN OF STEEL. I don’t know about you but I was having a geek overload on Tuesday when the new trailers for the films were released on the same day. There’s nothing in these pictures that we haven’t seen before from the films but the images will still get you excited that these movies are inching closer and closer to their release dates.

First up is STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS: MTV has an exclusive image on their Tumblr of Benedict Cumberbatch as John Harrison. I’m not going to get into if he’s Khan or not. At this point to me it doesn’t matter: I just want to see the damn film already. Also, does anyone know where I can purchase a John Harrison jacket? Not the one from this image because it’s pretty much a poncho but the jacket from the trailer and poster is pretty snazzy.

Yahoo! Movies has a new picture from MAN OF STEEL of Henry Cavill as Superman that is part of a slideshow celebrating the character’s 75th birthday. I really dig some of the small details on the costume. Previous outfits for Superman were very much superhero costumes while this outfit almost seems like a uniform and more…organic I guess is the word I’m looking for? Like it’s a part of him as opposed to just being an outfit that he changes into when he’s inside a phone booth.

STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS hits theaters May 17th, 2013 and MAN OF STEEL will be released on June 4th, 2013.
