The team behind “Superman” is responding to the backlash after director James Gunn said the DC tentpole is the story of “an immigrant that came from other places.”
When asked about the reaction to his comments, James Gunn explained that the movie is for “everyone” and that he doesn’t have “anything to say to anybody” spreading negativity around “Superman.”
“I’m not here to judge people,” he told Variety at Monday night’s “Superman” premiere at Hollywood’s TCL Chinese Theatre. “I think this is a movie about kindness and I think that’s something everyone can relate to.”
But why male models?
It could be Supergirl! How come there’s no superwoman?
Or do you mean how come Superman is not played by a black trans woman who is also half Chinese, Native American Navajo, Peruvian and Australian who also really likes anime and is deeply convinced to be Japanese or have Pacific Islander descendency? Oh I bet there’s only three of them and they’re all very busy women. One of them is also lesbian and a polyglot.
