Man Of Steel 2 AKA Man Of Tomorrow (Notes)

Notes

-A sequel to Man Of Steel.
-Not a semi-reboot nor a soft-reboot.
-Takes place three years after Zack Snyder's Justice League.
-Begins with high school teenagers talking about their issues in anything, etc, talking about how "Super" Superman is and how they're not even sure if he is generally a good "Man". They are later bullied. Superman appears, in the air as he hovers down to them to motivate empathy into these bullies then encourages these bullied teenagers.
-The primary villain will be Lex Luthor.
-The secondary villain will be a Kryptonian that had just arrived on Earth named Jo-Pax, a former exile.
-James Olsen will be introduced as that type of person that doesn't believe nor admire Superman because his friends died years ago during the Black Zero event. He works at the Daily Bugle as a photographer.
-Chloe Jade Sullivan is introduced, a rookie journalist/reporter working at the Daily Planet taking after her cousin.
-Lois stays mostly at home raising hers and Clark's daughter Jonetta Kent.
-Clark Kent is a quirky, witty and mild-mannered (but not too much) man of a reporter working at the Daily Bugle. A silly and fun guy anyone can make friends with despite his quirkiness and mild-mannerism.
-Clark Kent forms a friendship with Chloe and James Olsen. The trio go through quirky and fun times as they work together at The Daily Planet.
-Whilst having good friends in Chloe and James at the Planet, Clark as Superman stops a robbery via a bunch of thieves in a car being chased by cops, saves a small child from getting ran over due to lack of supervision of parents,
-This movie will also explore Superman fighting against societal issues such as racism, police brutality, LGBTQA+ discrimination, corruption, teenage suicide, etc within the field of dealing with real life circumstances.
-This movie will not have the same grim and dark tone as the earlier DCEU films.
-This movie will only slightly borrow tones from Smallville and Superman and Lois and then will also create a feel of its own that makes it what it is.
-It will explore Superman's opinions about all those lives he could have but did not save during the past films including his own father's, and this places him on a threshold or path of redemption to become a better hero.
-All actors in the DCEU will reprise their respective roles.
-Background characters or the people in the city in this movie will not only be one-sided but will show promise and depth as Superman inspires them to accomplish heroic acts like him.
-Superman's main suit throughout the film is dark blue, basically his default suit but with more apparent blue and less dark in contrast.
-Superman's first suit AKA The "First Flight" suit and his black suit AKA The Revival Suit will be thrown in as easter eggs; hung up in Clark Kent's wardrobe like regular clothes.
-Superman will explain to be using the Revival suit for grieving or for visiting memorials.
-Otis will serve a major role working for Lex, will slightly provide comic relief but also depth and drama with his backstory.
-Chloe Jade Sullivan will so happen to have classic Lois Lane's personality.
-Diane Lane will reprise her role as Martha Kent.
-Emily Peterson will reprise her role as Lana Lang but this time is provided with speaking lines.
-Joseph Cranford will reprise his role as Pete Ross.
-There will be a Smallville High Reunion 2019, more so the reason Clark meets old friends.
-At one point in the first act, Clark visits the kryptonian ship at Heroes Park and reads Jor-El's message about their ability to rewind time but Clark tells hims that there is nothing he regrets and that he will never use it.
-Lex Luthor, Otis and
Jo-Pax together will cause disasters around the world for Superman to prevent so Lex will be able to eliminate Lois and Jonetta back home at Metropolis.
-Superman will miraculously put a stop to a multitude of disasters occuring around the world using his powers in various ways.
-After some time of saving the world, and making sure all disasters are prevented. Superman runs into Jo-Pax and the two kryptonians battle it out in the desert where Superman leads the other to. Then later at clear fields in Arizona, underwater, until they reach the arctic where Clark then freezes him with his Arctic Breath. Keeping Jo-Pax frozen in Antartica.
-By the time Superman returns to Metropolis, he finds his apartment building in rubbles. He frantically searched for Lois and Jonetta, then would dig up their bodies as he feels devastated.
-At that moment, Clark has a breakdown. He screams at the top of his lungs in grief, as the whole world hears, then flies up. He breaks the sound barrier and flies around the world with such immense speed that he rewinds time reverting to the moment before Luthor would eliminate his family.
-Superman is able to stop Lex, and destroys the empty armored suit sent by the latter.
-Back at the evil lair, Jo-Pax meets up with Lex who scolds him about not providing a distraction to Kal-El. Jo tells him he wasn't able to find Superman at all. Lex, with his vast knowledge about kryptonians, puts the pieces together and realized Superman suffered under the feeling of losing his family in a reversed event where Lex was able to execute his plan. He then states that it is such a shame he never got to watch Superman suffer.
-Lex is aggravated, he murders Jo-Pax and states that he has no use for this god anymore. That he, being "Man" will be the one to kill "God".
-Throughout the earlier acts of the movie, Lex had been stealing the sufficient materials and kryptonite with the help of Otis. This sets up the Power Suit.
-Chloe and James break into Luthor's hideout, they find Otis who tries to stop them but then they are able to incapacitate Otis.
-The pair further go deeper and are too late as Lex flies out of the hideout wearing the Power Suit.
-Lex Luthor calls out to Superman in the arctic. The latter comes to Lex, finding him there in his usual fornal wear. The two have a chat, with Lex complimenting his grievance about the absence of Supermen those times he was abused by his father and the people around him. Then also reminds Superman of the speech he gave three years ago on a rooftop about how the hero reminded him of his tyrant of a father.
-The formal-suit-wearing Lex would turn out to be a hologram all along and Superman is tackled from behind by Lex in the power suit.
-Superman asks Lex if kryptonite will be involved, sarcastically done. Lex says he won't use kryptonite and calls it cheating, thus they battle it out formidably in the arctic. Lex's power suit surprisingly endures Superman's forces.
-Throughout the movie, the conflict within the friendship of Clark, James, and Chloe is that James sort of disliked Superman. This should then be resolved throughout the movie once James witnesses Superman saving the world from all the disasters, and he develops sympathy for Superman after Chloe tells him about how isolated and oppressed the hero felt during his early years when he was introduced to mankind. And James says it's no excuse and why would regular people like them look up to an all-powerful and seemingly perfect person. Chloe tells him that those are not the main reasons people love the guy, and that Superman is not perfect, then she goes on about how there are bad situations in life that happen that made people feel so powerless that they wished they had even an inch of that power in order to prevent these things from happening. James rethinks his ego and opinions.
-At this moment, Chloe has figured out by herself that Clark Kent is Superman.
-Lex's power suit proves to be formidable enough to underpower Superman. And because the villain uses the trauma and struggles of the hero against him during the fight such as: The millions who died when he fought Zod, the innocents Lex had to kill just to ruin Superman, and he asks him how it felt when Clark lost his family and how he had to cheat time and life in order to to bring them back instead of simply moving on.
-Lex underpowers Superman without even the use of kryptonite, telling him that the world doesn't need a savior if he cannot even save everyone.
-Before Lex could land a final hit on Superman, the latter becomes more motivated and tells Lex that he saves the world not because he is powerful and is obligated to, but because he knows it is the right thing to do. Then he tells him further that even in a world without Superman, a majority of these humans will always do the right thing and help others like he says so. This then cuts to a montage of people around the world helping eachother, various situations. A man hanging from a ledge is helped up, firemen escort citizens from a charred building, a policeman spots a little girl getting kidnapped and makes the rescue arresting the kidnappers with the help of other officers, a child is being bullied at the park then this child is saved by the teens who were bullied at the beginning of the film as they are wearing plain t-shirts with 'S' painted on them.
-Superman in the middle of fighting, further tells Lex that he is not the only person in existence who chooses to help and save people, that in the end there will always be people who care about others, and will do anything to save them. That he is just a symbol that will remind the people about hope, and that he wishes to inspire them also.
-Lex sheds a tear, as he looks down. He seemed to be rethinking his perspective.
-Superman hovered closer to Lex with a fierce face as the latter almost stabs Superman with a kryptonite spear, the hero managed to evade the spear, and uses his lasting strength due to its presence in order to break the spear in half and throw it into the water. Superman grabs hold of Lex and destroys his power suit in order to pull him out. "From this moment onward, you should take the chance to make better decisions."
-But Lex still generally hated Superman even though he that speech moved him. He has moved on about the fact that Superman may not be all-good. But personally, Lex had grown fond of their rivalry.
-Later on, the government receives a message from Superman about Luthor's location. By the time their helicopters arrive at the arctic, they'd find Lex wearing winter clothes.
-The kryptonian ship slowly and carefully flies out then away from Heroes Park in order to relocate at the arctic.
-Clark comes home to his family and embraces them. Turns out Chloe is here and she gives him a special suitcase where inside lies whatever she ordered from a trusted tailor.
-Later, Clark heads to the kryptonian ship at the arctic, with the suitcase. There, he talks to Jor-El about how sorry he is that he wasn't good enough to save his family that he had to reverse time to get them back. Jor El tells him, "No person is perfect, Kal. It's alright." Then Jor instructs Clark on how to activate this ship for it to transform into something greater, a fortress of solitude.
-Superman then walks out of his fortress wearing the new suit he'd call his "Tomorrow". He hears his fathers' voices in his head as he strolled on the snow, before taking flight like in the first movie as he headed for Metropolis to show the world the person beneath him all along and how much the people mean to Superman.
-The scene then cuts to a teenage girl whom Superman spoke to the other day and encouraged her to be confident about her sexuality. She approached her father, who is against it.
-Catherine and her father have a confrontation. With her dad threatening to kick her out. Superman suddenly appears, in a brighter and more hopeful suit with colors composed of light blue, with red accents within this new suit, and his symbol also on the back of his cape collored all yellow.
-Superman speaks to her father and teaches him a lesson to accept whatever or whoever his child wants to be for the better. Then he goes on with this speech about acceptance. He tells about how bitter and lost he felt when he was still in hiding and how hard it was to live up to the people of earth. He admits his mistakes, and all the oversights he had done about the lives he could not save during his early years and goes on to tell them that he is now trying tk do better or his best to be his best self and to be able to help more people while he can. Then for people around the world to hear, he mentions Lex Luthor, the people like him, and those who believe that reality is the only thing that dreams are just fairy tales. He goes on and says that dreams lift us up, and give us hope no matter the circumstances. And that it is true to not forget about reality, but having faith and dreams can also help you.
-After the speech, Catherine's father apologizes to her. Superman smiles once more at the people around him who applaud and thank him.
-Later on, James follows Chloe who saw a familiar face at a cafe. Lex Luthor. She confronts him and questionsabout how he is here despite knowing that he had been apprehended. Lex goes on to tell her, "Luthors have their ways, Miss Sullivan." Chloe recalls the time she and James spotted a lab at Lex's hideout that had these incubator tubes, realizing that maybe Lex Luthor had cloned himself now capable of being in two places at once. Before Chloe could take advantage of Luthor, the latter would vanish into a crowd. To be seen again in the future.
-President Hornes calls Superman over to present at Washington DC. During the presentation which proves that the humans now fully trust and accept Superman as their savior, President Hornes asks Superman, "Asking from heart: What made you do the right thing?" Superman then answers, "Because I was raised by good parents."
-The iconic Man Of Steel theme would then play as Superman stands besides the american flag, infront of the public as he smiled proudly. Martha Kent back at her home watched her son stand infront of the people of earth proudly, with tears of joy. Lois and little Jonetta watched him on the TV happily with the same feeling. Chloe stood amongst the crowd accompanied by James, who had now accepted Suoerman. The hero stood besides the american flag with the sun shining bright in the background. This had now depicted
-Clark Kent was very glad now that the planet had truly accepted him as their Man Of Tomorrow.
Post credits scene:
-For the final scene with Lex and Otis at prison. The assistant asked his boss about which Lex he is with right now. "Are you the clone or the original?" He said.
Lex answers, "I am the clone, Otis. But spiritually, it depends." He then tells Otis that their Superman, is not the only superman in existence.
Extra:
-Superman vs Lex at the arctic should be an awesome fight with awesome visuals, choreography, flashy attacks, etc. Like anime maybe? With emotional but awesome man of steel music playing while Superman makes awesome moves with his powerful heat vision.
