Man Of Steel Hidden Detail Revealed 10 Years Later Completely Changes A Controversial Superman Scene

Summary

• Man of Steel storyboard artist Jay Oliva reveals that there were no Metropolis citizens present during the controversial scene where Superman dodges a tanker truck, shedding new light on the scene's context.
• The reveal recontextualizes the scene and explains why Cavill's Superman didn't attempt to save citizens in the building. However, it doesn't address the movie's overall controversial ending and the high level of destruction caused.
• The ending's major criticism lies in Clark killing General Zod, deviating from Superman's traditional no-kill rule. Banishing Zod to the Phantom Zone would have been a better choice, but the new reveal may help tame some of the criticism surrounding the film's ending.

A Man of Steel reveal gives a whole new meaning to one of the DCEU movie's most controversial Superman scenes. Henry Cavill's debut as Superman in 2013's Man of Steel marked the start of the DCEU. Although the movie showed a lot of promise for Cavill's version of Superman, Man of Steel's reviews ended up being mixed due to the film making some controversial choices.
On Twitter, Man of Steel storyboard artist Jay Oliva shed a new light on one of the film's most controversial scenes.
According to Oliva, there were no Metropolis citizens present during the scene where Superman dodges a tanker truck, and it hits a parking garage, which resulted in a massive explosion that could have killed anyone in the building. That reveal recontextualizes a scene that originally gave Cavill's Superman a bad look, as he simply dodged the truck and never looked back at it while the truck's explosion destroyed the parking garage.
