Christopher Nolan Taking "Naturalistic Approach" to Superman

Writer David Goyer has been discussing his plans for Superman in the forthcoming superhero reboot Man of Steel.

Speaking at the Rome Film Fest (which Collider found via Bad Taste), Goyer discussed the more realistic approach that he, producer Christopher Nolan and director Zack Snyder were taking to the material.

“What Christopher Nolan and I have done with Superman is try to bring the same naturalistic approach that we adopted for the Batman trilogy.” he explained. “We always had a naturalistic approach, we want our stories to be rooted in reality, like they could happen in the same world we live in.”

Goyer explained that approach is more difficult when you are dealing with an alien than when you are dealing with a crime-fighting billionaire playboy.

“It’s not that easy with Superman, and actually this doesn't necessarily mean we will make a dark movie. But working on this reboot we are thinking about what would happen if a story like this one actually happened. How would people react to this? What impact would the presence of Superman in the real world have?”

Question is, do audiences want to see a “real-world” approach to the Man of Steel? Let us know your thoughts the comments below.
