I’m really excited to be a part of it and sharing the legacy, any documentary I look up at the sky and Kevin Burns did and Bryan did and showed me again you know the history that’s in this character and you know.
BRANDON ROUTHI’m really excited to be a part of it and sharing the legacy, any documentary I look up at the sky and Kevin Burns did and Bryan did and showed me again you know the history that’s in this character and you know.
BRANDON ROUTHI’m kind of looking for something with a lot less action and more talking and listening.
BRANDON ROUTHI’m very excited to see where the characters and their relationships go. But in the end, it really boils down to the people who have more power than me, who control the money.
BRANDON ROUTHWell physically preparing for the role, definitely and then continuing to stay physically fit throughout filming, getting up, 4.00 4.30 in the morning.
BRANDON ROUTHAll these things are thoughts in my head, but I’m an artist first and foremost, I guess, so there are great things out there. I’ve read some awesome things and if there’s nothing there that I like I can always create something.
BRANDON ROUTHIt was a great mantel to be able to take on really, an amazing legacy. And you know to finally see it, because I just saw the final product yesterday as well, is really amazing to be part of something like this.
BRANDON ROUTHThe first time I wore it, I didn’t have that as much. I hadn’t really trained any, yet. I hadn’t read the script, I hadn’t really worked on the character at that point.
BRANDON ROUTHTo go too much another way, for the sake of my ego in wanting to create something… in the situation of Superman is just wrong. Especially since we’re continuing, in a sense, that story. The characters have to feel somewhat similar. What are you going to do with Superman?
BRANDON ROUTHThe world, and all the people that have created it, created him and have all kind of come together to make this image. Everybody kind of has the same idea of what it should be. So for me to go, “Okay, no, I think he should have a southern accent.” Or something crazy, just doesn’t make any sense.
BRANDON ROUTHThere’s a great legacy before me. Many, many fantastic actors, artists, writers have come before me and created Superman. I’m very honored to be able to be a part of it.
BRANDON ROUTHI think Superman’s journey is to become comfortable on earth. Of course he’s got his role as earth’s greatest protector but he also wants to be as happy as he can and if that happens to be with Lois then he’s going to find a way.
BRANDON ROUTHThere are things about growing up in a small town that you can’t necessarily quantify.
BRANDON ROUTHAs I said before, I’m prepared to be prepared and I think that remains the same, you know there’s no way to really know what it’s going to feel like. I think for each individual it’s different.
BRANDON ROUTHWell I’m Superman, just not action. I’m kind of looking for something with a lot less action and more talking and listening.
BRANDON ROUTHAnd I was standing around with a room full of costume designers and everybody was judging me right away and going, “Don’t make your judgment on it, if this is Superman quite yet or not,” because I hadn’t done all the work that I would later do.
BRANDON ROUTHThat’s definitely a part of who Superman is and definitely who Clark on the farm is. It translates to how calm he is. I feel like I’m pretty calm most of the time and relaxed, which gives presence to the character.
