Movie NEWS! Super "clip"

There's a new super hero in town.
The Crimson Bolt-

 Dun dun duuun~

You may know him from The Office.
It's Rainn Wilson starring as this down-to-earth hero in his new flick "Super".
With all those Kickass and Watchmen, you had to expect some more superhero movies being made, and not just adaptation.
With an upcoming (highly anticipated from me) TV show called The Cape, a fantastic four ripoff called No Ordinary Family and a ton of movies in production, it's the golden age of the live original super heroes!

"Super" is a sort of Mystery Men meets Kickass, that is, a realistic yet comedic movie. More grounded in reality unlike Kickass' jetpack, however not that serious.

 
And here's the synopsis:
"A guy named Frank has his wife Sarah leaves him for a criminal drug lord named Jacques.
Frank decides to become a superhero, "The Crimson Bolt" and fight for truth, justice and the American Way.
He starts his crusade against criminals and wrong-doers using his own-made costume and a wrench tool
Then he's joined by a local comic book store employee, who becomes his sidekick "Boltie".

The two team up against Jacque in the streets of crimes."
It was described as a dark comedy by its director James Gunn, and I'm personally getting quite interested in this movie.

They didn't reveal much for now only that Nathan Fillion, Liv Tyler, Kevin Bacon, and Andre Royo will also star along Rainn Wilson, Ellen Page and even Rob Zombie!!

And here's a little clip:



Gotta admit, this could turn pretty kickass! (no pun intended...or is it?!)
