Brandon Routh opened up a ton during this episode of Inside Of You with Michael Rosenbaum on his thoughts and feelings about not being able to carry on the role of Superman as long as he would have hoped or imagined, shortly after Superman Returns. Here he talks about the expectations he had going into playing the Man of Steel and the disappointment and shock that came afterwards, not being able to carry on in Superman sequels.

Brandon Routh (Superman Returns, Scott Pilgrim vs the World) joins us to share the thoughts and feelings on his role as Superman not living up to the expectations that he had hoped for. He opens up on the idea of one’s ego clouding self judgement and how it’s important to pursue balance in life. We talk about deflecting as a defense mechanism, overcoming things not within our control, and our purpose day to day.

...holy shit, you know I NEVER made that connection when I'd see these clips of his podcasts. :O OT: I think Superman Returns was a legit good superman film, no qualifications. I had more emotional investment in that story, and those characters, than anything in Man of Steel. Plus, I've never really understood the hate for it. "Lex Luthor hatches really stupid plan FOR THE MONEY!, while Clark spends most of the film dealing with personal/relationship drama" is a pretty stock standard Superman plot for a film. It actually showed him being a protector to the civilians, and set up the tension in HOW he would save the people from the disaster, one that he didn't cause by the way. It felt more like a Superman story/film to me, than the new DCEU stuff, by far.

@fasih_rehman 3 года назад

'Superman Returns' is better than 'Man of Steel'. The big issues I had with Returns was they took on too much if they had left out the 'Son of' angle they would have been better off. Returns fits with the first 3 original movies (or 2 movies if you don't like 3 -4 is hated by everyone.) The action sequences in MoS were over done, they did not have to repeat the Superman II story line with Zod.

He's a wonderful actor to the Arrowverse and other TV and movie projects, but there's one movie of his that I didn't care for: _Dylan Dog._ It puzzle me, too, because I have no idea why the movie left me feeling empty. Everything was there: the acting, story structure, production value...but the film didn't resonate with me. By the time it was over, I was still waiting for it to start. It's not even a forgettable movie, either--I can still recall certain scenes even though I've only watched it once. But yeah, outside of _Dylan Dog_ I like all of Brandon's roles.

@Syryu 3 года назад

Brandon Routh wasn't the problem with Superman Returns at all. It's that they just did 1978's Superman beat-by-beat with flimsy new window dressing. Superman going away for a mission and then returning to Earth to realize a lot has changed and perhaps the world has moved on from him and his style of heroism is a fantastic story on its own but it was bogged down by the structure and outline of the 1978 film which prevented anything new or exciting from happening that would make the film its own. That's part of the reason why Zack Snyder went his own way with "Man of Steel" so that there wouldn't be anything from past films holding it back. Yet people complained that it wasn't enough like the 1978 movie. It's no wonder Superman hasn't gotten another solo film. People can't make up their minds over what the hell they want from his movies.

I remember back when I was 8 my dad took me to the theater and I wanted to see The Omen, seeing as it was June 6th 2006 but I noticed Superman Returns was playing.. so we went to see that instead and I loved it. It was an okay movie but Brandon was great as Superman. It was nice to see a continuation of Christopher Reeve's Superman. And we were both glad to see him return to the role in Crisis on infinite earths.

They did bring him back to that role on the CW crossover last season, and they are brining Affleck and Keaton back for the Flash movie.

Routh was so good! he had a suit with weird cut (what were those .. Bikini briefs?) - cyan and maroon colours in some of the colour grading and the mish mash of Singer taking a 1970s-1980s film series and making a pseudo sequel, making Lois completely different, making the design language something out of the 40s to 60s then using 2006 technology like the computers and mobile phones. also made it nearly impossible to make a solid sequel because of the complexity of the Super-Kids (clarks son) and made menacing Kevin Spacey into a sometimes Campy Lex for no reason. he was vindicated by his reappearance as a version of Clark in the CW crossover event - brilliant and instantly conveyed the honour and sincerity of Superman when he stepped into his very first scene

What a humble guy! I have never seen an actor speak of themselves in such a realistic (and negative, mind you) way as Brandon does in this clip. He was the absolute best part of Superman Returns. He reminded me of Christopher Reeves without trying to act like Reeves. Heck, even his sense of humor just perfectly fit the Superman character. Too bad the writing was meh, and the direction- and I’m a fan of Singer- was subpar.

@AnyoneCanSee 11 месяцев назад

He’s literally admitting he was arrogant and difficult to work with. Just because he is saying he isn’t like that how doesn’t make it true. In my experience when you give people a second chance and they say they’ve changed you get more of the same.

@Jarallah 11 месяцев назад

@@AnyoneCanSee With all due respect, this is quite a cynical way of looking at others. This suggested “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” chokehold against others means no one can be genuinely humble. It takes a great deal of humility to admit you were wrong, greater still to admit you were arrogant. That’s what Brandon exemplified to me in this clip.

Happens all the time, Peter Parker in the new spiderman game was redesigned to look more like Tom Holland and Tony Stark in the comics is the image of Iron man now but originally he looked like Walt disney and Henry Ford.
