The Mr. Handsome fan club is growing, so naturally, we want to know more about the freaky Creepypasta-looking slender monster featured in Superman. Director James Gunn didn’t exactly pull from the DC Comics library for this very weird character; though there was a Mr. Handsome villain in Catwoman’s lore, they appear to be unrelated. This […]

I Love That ‘Superman’ Loves Journalism
James Gunn’s Superman operates on a litany of fantasies: a world where superpowered individuals have existed for centuries and roam among us, a world where the public almost universally loves a singular alien who has come to planet Earth to uplift and protect humanity’s greatest ideals in the name of a better tomorrow.

Superman Saving a Squirrel Was Cut Out of the Movie, but James Gunn Put It Back In
There are plenty of weird and unexpected moments in James Gunn’s Superman, but one of the most unexpected has to be when he saves a squirrel in the middle of a giant battle.

James Gunn’s spent the past few weeks talking about why he agreed to do Superman, and he’s also taking time to address the awkward part: agreeing to do it at the apparent expense of Henry Cavill’s superhero comeback.
