Describing them as “perfect nerds” for Superman, Brosnahan shared her excitement about the production, emphasizing the love they pour into it.
“I’ve really enjoyed the collaboration with James Gunn so far,” Brosnahan expressed to Entertainment Tonight. “Every single person involved with this production is such a perfect nerd for Superman. We all grew up watching the movies and some of us grew up reading the comics. I feel like it’s being made with so much love. This Superman will have a sense of humour…we’re excited to both put our own spin on things but also honour the material we love so much.”
Asked to encapsulate her rendition of Lois Lane in three words, Brosnahan chose “Feisty. Dare I say, marvellous? And fiercely intelligent.”
James Gunn appears to be crafting Superman: Legacy as a genuine tribute, not only to Superman but to the entire ensemble. Lois Lane, often a pivotal character, takes the spotlight, and Brosnahan’s portrayal is highly anticipated.
