October 21, 2002: Brett Ratner Talks More on Superman
Dark Horizons spoke with Brett Ratner about the up-coming "Superman" movie he has signed on to direct. They discussed casting and the script. Here's an excerpt from the interview...
Hopkins is confirmed - "He did such a good Brando impression for me, I said I gotta get this guy to play the father of Superman". Despite the rumours linking him for months now, he officially only got hired two weeks ago and has yet to consider anyone for the Supes role despite all the speculation. When asked to comment on the scathing Net reviews of the script, Ratner says "I trust my instincts...a script is a script, its not a movie - its my interpretation of it and I think they're reading like old drafts or something - I just got the new draft yesterday that was hand-delivered by like a guy with a gun". Ratner also confirmed he's going for the big buff guy style mold rather than the smaller Tobey Maguire-esque build.
