James Gunn’s Superman finally arrives in theaters next week, kicking off Warner Bros’ second attempt at a DC cinematic universe to rival Marvel. Gunn has already proven his superhero movie skills many times over, and hype levels are at maximum.
Well, for most people anyway. Over the weekend, Deadline published an interview in which Gunn said he wanted to focus on Superman being a literal illegal alien: “An immigrant that came from other places and populated the country,” and that he wanted to remind people of their “basic human kindness” towards their fellow man.
