Henry Cavill publica foto com uniforme do Superman

O ator Henry Cavill publicou uma imagem no Instagram com o uniforme do Superman para celebrar os 79 anos de publicação do super-herói criado por Jerry Siegel e Joe Shuster.

No post, o ator lembra a história da criação do Homem de Aço e como ele foi parar na icônica capa de estreia da revista “Action Comics”, em 1938. Mas igualmente interessante é o que a imagem registra, já que Cavill está com o uniforme num trailer de produção. Ou seja, trata-se de um clique tirado durante uma folga das refilmagens da “Liga da Justiça”, que estão acontecendo sob comando de Joss Whedon (“Os Vingadores”) em Londres.

A estreia de “Liga da Justiça” está prevista para 16 de novembro no Brasil.

Hi Everyone! I've been doing some Super Ruminations because this month is the 79th anniversary of Superman in Action Comics and thought it fitting to pass on this little fact. Who knew eh?? In January 1933, Jerry Siegel wrote a short story titled "The Reign of the Superman", which was illustrated by his friend Joe Shuster and self-published in a science fiction magazine. It told the story of a bald villain with telepathic powers. Trying to create a character they could sell to newspaper syndicates,Siegel re-conceived the "superman" character as a powerful hero, sent to our world from a more advanced society. He and Shuster developed the idea into a comic strip, which they pitched unsuccessfully. National Publications was looking for a hit to accompany their success with Detective Comics, and did not have time to solicit new material. Because of the tight deadline, editor Vin Sullivan was forced to make it out of inventory and stockpile pages. Sullivan asked former coworker Sheldon Mayer if he could help. Mayer found the rejected Superman comic strips, and Sullivan told Siegel and Shuster that if they could paste them into 13 comic book pages, he would buy them. #SuperRuminations #Superman #ActionComics
