James Gunn said Superman has to 'be somebody who you want to give a hug.' 🤗
. “I initially said no because I didn’t have a way in that felt unique and fun and emotional that gave Superman the dignity he deserved,” Gunn wrote on Twitter. “Then a bit less than a year ago I saw a way in, in many ways centering around Superman’s heritage – how both his aristocratic Kryptonian parents and his Kansas farmer parents inform who he is and the choices he makes.”
Gunn also praised the classic superhero and is super excited to write the film. “I completely relate to Superman because he’s everything I am,” Gunn told“He’s somebody who is an outsider who feels like an alien, but also the ultimate insider, because he’s fucking Superman. And that’s kind of like what I feel like.”
will not reprise his role in the new Superman movie, but rest assured he was not fired from DC. “It’s also important to say that Henry Cavill was not fired,” Gunn said in a press conference. “Henry was just not hired to be Superman in the Superman movie. There was never a deal there for another movie. And that’s not what it was.”
