When Superman (Henry Cavill) isn't chowing down on Hardee's burgers, he's busy saving the world from the likes of General Zod (Michael Shannon).  Three new TV spots for Zack Snyder's Man of Steel showcase the various relationships and powers of the title hero.  We get more background on Zod's motives, a wider look at the rampant destruction of, presumably, Metropolis and still more explanation of why an "S" is not always necessarily an "S."

Also starring Amy Adams, Kevin Costner, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne and Russell Crowe, Man of Steel opens June 14th.  Hit the jump for three new TV spots.

Here’s the official synopsis for Man of Steel:

In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Cavill) is a young twenty-something journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone’s imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question – Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Costner), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack. Will his abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as “Superman,” not only to shine as the world’s last beacon of hope but to protect the ones he loves.
