Earlier, James Gunn triggered controversy after suggesting that Superman is an immigrant story, before the film’s release.
Now he, in an interview with EWlooked at the backlash, mainly coming from the conservative section, “I heard people say that he was awake, then I heard many people say that it is not the case. I am curious to know what in the film is considered awake.”
The DC’s head explained his remarks, which he made in an interview with The Times of London. “I think people took something I said … The guy for the London newspaper. Originally, he said that [Superman comic creators] Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were the sons of immigrants, and they wrote Superman as a story of immigrants. »»
“And I said, yes, it’s a story about an immigrant, but it’s above all a story for me about kindness, which is. This is the center of the film for me,” noted the filmmaker.
“This is what we can all act, it is kindness,” continued the director. “So what is it about?” Well, does that lead to the way you vote?
“Yes. All these things are affected if people are starting to enhance the kindness. I mean, people have enjoyed kindness in the past,” added the 58 -year -old.
“It was an American value, it was kindness, and it no longer necessarily seems to be like that for me, so it was always the center of the film for me, and it was nothing other than that,” he concluded.
Superman run in cinemas.
