David Goyer's superhero script will allegedly follow journalist Clark Kent as he travels the world and must decide whether or not he wants to become Superman. Recent reports also claimed that General Zod will be the film's villain.
Director Snyder, who held off competition from Darren Aronofsky to secure the Superman job, has reportedly expressed concerns about Goyer's story.
According to Vulture, the script was rushed through and has been described as "a bit of a mess". Snyder allegedly signed up to direct because Warner Bros. believes he will be able to rectify the problems quickly.
Warner Bros. is planning to have a new Superman in production by next year - in order to avoid potential lawsuits from the heirs of the Man of Steel's creators - to make a 2012 release.
