“We live in a much more complicated time than when Superman was created 75 years ago. Or even when Superman The Movie was created in the 70s.

It's difficult to figure out the right path. And even if you do good there are causalities to your choices. We thought it would be compelling.” IfsYearsKindCharacterWould BeFacesChoicesGrowsFeltEasyDifficultGrowing UpPathEnvironmentFiguresNeededYears AgoComplicatedGreat MenCompellingComplicationRight PathColossalCausalitySuperman Movie Author:Charles Roven
