Live action Max Fletcher’s Superman in World War II going up against Hitler and his Super-race!
STORY
Lois and Clark get assigned to the Press Corps in France near the end of WWII, in March of 1945. Lois and her photographer, Private Donald Callahan, get kidnapped by Nazi Super Soldiers and taken as hostages to Berlin. To rescue them, Superman must stand up to Hitler’s Super Soldiers. They are more formidable than any foes he has faced previously. Opposing philosophies of what the “superman” is are explored. This film is Superman at his roots. The Director puts his Grandfather, who really was a WWII photographer, in the Jimmy Olson role. Supermen: World War is a feature length Fan Film and a passion project!

This is awesome looking.!! I liked the 1950’s Superman TV series and this kind of reminiscent.
The 1940’s Fleisher cartoons must have also inspired this team. I already like the acting in the trailer. Good luck to these fellows, they seem to ‘get’ Superman.
