Co-written and directed by Guy Ritchie (Sherlock Holmes), The Man from U.N.C.L.E is based on the 1964 television series created by Sam Rolfe. Starring Henry Cavill (Man of Steel), Armie Hammer (The Social Network), and Alicia Vikander (Ex Machina), U.N.C.L.E is a stylish spy comedy set against the backdrop of the early ’60s period of the Cold War.

Today’s Warner Bros. Pictures panel in Hall at San Diego Comic-Con saw new footage for two of their highly anticipated DC films — Suicide Squad and Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice.

But the studio also had some non-superhero properties to promote, including their upcoming big-screen adaptation of the classic television show The Man from U.N.C.L.E., which now has a new trailer.

We found out back in March that Tom Cruise was set to star in The Man From U.N.C.L.E., a movie version of the TV series that aired from 1964 to 1968 that’s being directed by Guy Ritchie (Sherlock Holmes, Snatch).

But recently Cruise decided to walk away from the movie to instead focus on Mission: Impossible 5, a franchise also born from a ’60s TV series.

Now comes word that Man of Steel star Henry Cavill has entered into early negotiations to take Cruise’s spot as the Man From U.N.C.L.E. lead.
