Writer/director James Gunn's name may be all over his upcoming Superman reboot movie, but the filmmaker himself tells Extra that the film is a "collaboration of many great creators," and that he takes special satisfaction in the approval of the grandsons of Jerry Siegel, who had "effusive" praise for his film's script.
"One moment I really like, shed a tear, was when Jerry [Siegel]'s grandsons read the scripts for the first time," Gunn tells Extra. "We brought them over to DC, we showed them the scripts in the office. And they came out, and they got on the phone with me, and they were just effusive. I'd never met them, but they were just effusive. They said 'This is the Superman movie we've been waiting to see. Our grandfather would have been so proud.' I'm gonna cry now! That meant a lot."
