Q&A with Brandon Routh and Kate Bosworth

How do you deal with the fans? What is their reaction to you?

Kate Bosworth: What's great about the fans for Superman is that they're so excited and loyal and I think it brings a lot of people back to their childhood in a way. I went to Blockbuster the other day to get some films and one of the people that work there said ‘Oh I'm so excited for the movie.' It's really neat to see people coming up to you and saying their excited for the film coming out.

How did you embody Lois Lane ? Did you draw on other Lois Lanes for Experience?

Bosworth: I've seen the Superman films before but I saw them a long time ago when I was a kid. I purposely didn't watch them before I made the film because I didn't want to. I could see myself watching that and sort of being nervous comparing myself to other Lois Lanes and I couldn't deal with the pressure. Brian and I decided we wanted to start it fresh and be conscious of other performances. I watched it after when we finished which was a great experience.

What part of the Superman history inspired you to do this film?

Bosworth: Probably the films. To be honest, I really took it from the script. I took a lot of classic Lois Lane characteristics, the spunk, her feistiness, the independence, the drive, but it was all really there in the script. I tried to do it like any other film because if I thought about the hugeness of this film, I think it really would have freaked me out. I sort of approached it like I would have any other character. I read the script. I thought about what she was feeling, what her past experiences may have been, where she's at now.

Growing up or doing research for the movie, did you go back to the Superman comics at all?

Bosworth: I want so badly to say that I read every single comic book, but I was actually more into horses. I have a whole different appreciation for them now after making the film. They're really incredible pieces of art. They're fun, but they are incredibly artistic.

What was it like putting on the Superman costume for the first time?

Brandon Routh: I hadn't worked out for the film yet and I kind of would have liked to have done it alone in my own room.

How many people were there?

Routh: About 10 people watching and taking notes. It was a little bit nerve-wracking.

Did you work out?

Routh: After that, yes. The first two to three months I was working out about 2 ½-3 hours a day. Lifting weights, doing yoga. Eating healthy but well.

Have you had any weird encounters with Superman fans?

Routh: No, the coolest things are when people have tattoos and they want me to take pictures by their shoulder which is kind of interesting.

How was it embodying such a classic character?

Routh: It was very exciting and challenging. I learned a lot from it.

Where did you draw your inspiration?

Routh: It's from my vision of the character and how I see Superman and what I want out of Superman. But, also it's everyone who's come before me. It's George, It's Kirk Allen, It's Christopher Reeve. The cartoons, the image, how society views Superman, how everybody feels about it. All of that wrapped up into my interpretation of it.

Any unique takes that you put on him?

Routh: I don't know. The only thing that I can think is my approach really to Clark is that he's a spy for Superman which is kind of fun. He's just really excited about everything he does. He's not necessarily clumsy for the sake of being clumsy, but he gets really excited.

What can fans expect from this film?

Routh: They can expect a lot of action and a lot of flying. There are many references to the past films and comic story lines and characters in it and other actors that have been in other things which is really neat. They'll get a kick out of that. There are a lot of new things to see that they won't expect which is a really great story, and relationships and some deep emotions, but they won't feel like it's a drama piece. There's a really, really scary Lex Luthor in it from Kevin which is fantastic.

Out of all the Superman films, which character do you think you're closet to?

Routh: I have to say it's probably Chris's performance because he was my Superman and so in my head that's what I see. You know, probably most in the beginning of the film when I thought about Superman flying or reading the script, in my head it was probably actually me envisioning him in a way as I was playing it back in my head.

What are you working on next? Have you signed your next film?

Routh: Not yet. I have a lot of cool opportunities but you know everyone wants to see the film so I'm excited for directors and writers to see the film so they can understand the hype that's out there. The thing I'm looking for is a nice comedy/drama thing.
