Warning: Spoilers
Superman Returns director Bryan Singer talked with JoBlo.com about his upcoming movie and the way the Comic-Con audience reacted to the clip they saw:
Here’s an excerpt:
JoBlo: That must have felt pretty good to get a standing ovation with the footage…
Singer: It's hard, you know, when you just see a photograph of it, it represents one thing and people interpret it. It's just a photograph. But when you see it in motion, how we’re treating it with lighting and color and this is only our first pass at it, you know, in color time. I mean this was done sort of, this little piece was done on the fly, basically created on a small screen and very quickly for this. I think [Brandon Routh] sells it, definitely. If you were to meet Brandon in the suit, that's when it really… You feel like, "Oh, that's Superman. OK, I get it." I think or I hope it will be a good reaction. You know, you can please some of the people some of the time…"
Roll over the following text to read a spoiler question and answer:
JoBlo: Is Superman a home wrecker in this movie?
Singer: He’s not a home wrecker, it's just what happens when old boyfriends come back into your life. You know, something happens and it's tough. And they’re not married. No, [James] Marsden's character and Bosworth, Richard White and Lois Lane, are not married. You don't ask her about that question. Not Kate, but the character of Lois. She doesn't like that question.
JoBlo: So who exactly is the father of the baby?
Singer: It's hers and Richard's. No, they’re not married. It's a child out of wedlock.
Regarding the source material for the script, Singer said: "It's mostly original, like original material. If you look back in the comic history, they've done pretty much about everything. Superman's rescued everything, picked up everything, thrown everything, caught and captured and everything's bounced off him. You have to just see what serves the story that you’re telling at the given moment. But there's definitely a respect to taking an overview of the series and an overview of the movies and an overview of the serials and an overview of the musical, which I've seen. Yeah, they did it…"
