Man of Steel sees very good opening at the box office

Zack Snyder's 'Man of Steel' had a very good opening across India on Friday, with collections touching around 65-70 per cent at the box office on an average.

The movie saw the biggest release, ever, for an English film in Tamil Nadu - in 145 screens all over the state.

'Man of Steel', a reboot of the story of Superman, features Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Laurence Fishurne and Michael Shannon.

It is jointly produced by Christopher Nolan, Charles Roven, Emma Thomas and Deborah Snyder. Nolan and David Goyer have penned the story.

The movie, which released alongside 'Fukrey' and 'Ankur Arora Murder Case', saw better occupancy for its 3D version.

Trade pundits see 'Man of Steel' dominating the box office this week, leaving the Hindi films behind.
