UFC legend Matt Serra talks Zack Snyder and Christopher Reeves as Superman fever takes over

UFC legend Matt Serra is ecstatic about the upcoming Superman movie after watching the official trailer.

On July 11, the newest addition to the Superman movie series, simply labeled 'Superman,' will officially be released.

The trailer for the James Gunn-directed film became public last week, leading to the following reaction from Serra on his YouTube channel:

"I was in a text with the guys I do the [Joe] Rogan show with. Joe is talking about calf kicks or something, and I'm just like, you know what, not out of left field, but did you guys see the new Superman trailer? Then John Rallo, the big guy, is like, 'Oh, it looks great.' He loves all, I'm gonna have him on, he loves everything. He's a Marvel freak. Rogan just writes back, 'Dorks.'"

Matt Serra added:

"I love calf kicks too, but that new Supermean trailer. I don't want to talk about calf kicks. I want to talk about that f*cking thing. That blew me out of the water... Christopher Reeves was great, great, but Zack Snyder, there was some really cool parts in that Man of Steel. I liked Russell Crow as the father. There was some really good parts. It was way more science fictiony because the alien, yeah, he's an alien, but I don't know, this James Gunn Superman feels like it's almost a throwback."
