Antje Traue IS Faora in The Man of Steel

[Superman_200]

Faora looks cool. I think it is going to have a Tron look to her costume. That is going to look pretty sweet. With Snyder, everything looks very cool. He has a way to make everything look cool.

[Sebastos]

He has the eye to capture coolness, nice pics of Faora.

Also reminds me of...

What looks like black leather in a cellphone picture on the street in harsh sunlight is going to look very good in on cam. It is a movie from Snyder with a huge budget. Probably the biggest budget he has ever had. I doubt he would just have her in just a tight leather costume like Catwoman. I assume it is going to look pretty cool, just like the rest of the characters in any Snyder movie.

Rust: Ha, ha. Yeah, Sauron was actually the first thing that came to mind when I saw her as well. But I'll wait for some better shots of the suit before I'll pass any kind of judgement on it. Could be a pretty cool suit if done right.

[RavenX]

do you think Faora should just have the "standard" Kryptonian powers?

or should she have her own unique powers?

same with Zod?

Absolutely. Still, it's just a little too obvious villain-look with the black and the "evil queen"-cape. Yada-yada...

I'm guessing that all kryptonians would have more or less the same powers on Earth, no?

Of course, women might be a bit different. Also, Zod and Faora might have the advantage of already being skilled combatants.

[Nemeres]

Called it. Really, I did.

You called the Faora would have a suit that's the same color as Ty-Zor but looks different because it doesn't have red bulbs and doesn't look like the person designing it had a stroke in the middle of doing so?

So? You want more gray, red or what? She looks cool, much more than Catwoman for sure.

[Sabaoth]

Anything looks cooler than Nolan's Catwoman, even his horrible looking Bane.

Something more like Superman's outfit. Something more Star Wars than Krull, haha.

Colorful or at least not black. Like this from Birthright.

I thought it was obvious. Black, sturdy material; a cape; half of a Dracula-collar thingy. And you haven't even seen it up close, the b-tching bulbs could still be there. Apparently the person didn't die of the stroke because he's working on this movie

It should but I try not to get my hopes up and expect too much, that's what I did with GL.

Hope she gets a GOOD amount of screen time or as one dude on the IMDB board put it so very eloquently:

"Such a hot little German. I wanna put it in her poopenshaft."

Gorgeous and beautiful, but deadly!

Great casting on looks alone for this man hating twisted Faora character!

[Sabaoth]

I wonder why not try something new with Faora instead of making her look like Ursa with a Vader cape.

Ursa with a Vader cape? WTF?

Faora's clothes look to be skin-tight and a harder material based on the picture we've seen. Ursa had a baggy disco-like suit. Ursa's also showed off some leg and chest. Faora's covers all of her up. Other than the fact that they're black there isn't much in common.

Here's a bigger version of the cape pic:



I can understand people hoping it wasn't black again so it could differentiate more from the Donnerverse. But I like the cape and the armour design.

"I can understand people hoping it wasn't black again so it could differentiate more from the Donnerverse."

And just about every single movie-villain wearing fantastical clothings as well. I'm sorry, but already it just looks like a cliché villain-outfit.

[I Am The Knight]

"Ty-Zor" is still the worst name ever.

I was hoping for something similar to Birthright as well. But I guess colour is for the good guys. Maybe we'll see some of those Birthright designs on Krypton.

layered clothing doesnt automatic mean armour.
