April 4, 2013: Laurence Fishburne Plays Down Talk of "Man of Steel" Sequel

Perry White and Jenny Olsen? In Toronto for the world premiere for his post-apocalyptic thriller "The Colony", actor Laurence Fishburne wasn't ready to think about a sequel to "Man of Steel", in which he plays the role of Perry White, editor-in-chief of the Daily Planet newspaper.

"No, not yet, not yet, not yet," he says, speaking to QMI Agency. "I mean, we have to see how the film's gonna do, right?"

    Despite screenwriter David S. Goyer's endorsement of Fishburne - Goyer calls his casting an "awesome choice" in a recent interview - the actor plays down his interpretation of White in the movie.

    "It's a much bigger canvas than that," he says, implying that viewers should be focusing on Henry Cavill's performance as Superman. "My particular color on the canvas is minimal. It's really an origin story, Man of Steel ... the focus is his origins."
