October 22, 2002: Ratner and Hopkins Talk Superman

On Tuesday night in Australia, Brett Ratner and Sir Anthony Hopkins spoke on the Rove Live TV show and once again confirmed that Anthony Hopkins would indeed be playing the part of Jor-El in the up-coming "Superman" movie.

Ratner went on to explain to Rove that the movie would not be a prequel or sequel to the existing Superman movies, that it would be a re-invention or re-telling of the Superman mythos.

He also went on to say how excited he was about directing "Superman", having been a life-long Superman fan himself.
