Man of Steel Brandishes Lightsaber

Is the Man of Steel appearing in Star Wars: Episode VII? Probably not, but cheeky scamp Zack Snyder has posted a picture that suggests the monumental pairing.

As Comic-Con kicks off in San Diego, Snyder Tweeted a picture of Henry Cavill, in Star Wars robes, brandishing a lightsaber. Superman’s iconic costume can be glimpsed underneath, while the Hashtag #SuperJedi accompanies the pic.

It’s doubtless the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director having a bit of fun, but let’s take this one at face value and pretend that Kal-El has become a Sith Lord or Jedi until told otherwise.

Seems Cavill makes as miserable a Jedi as he does a superhero.
