Overview

• In Interview Magazine’s conversation with Amanda Seyfried, Brosnahan said “Do it or don’t do it, and then stand by it,” calling on actors to refrain from disparaging superhero movies after signing on.
• She pointed to stars such as Dakota Johnson and Christian Bale who have publicly criticized their own comic-book projects and said it never made sense to accept a role only to pooh-pooh it later.
• The remarks coincide with ongoing promotion for Superman, which opens July 11 as the first theatrical entry in James Gunn’s rebooted DC Universe.
• Brosnahan recounted learning she was cast as Lois Lane from James Gunn in a SoHo bathroom and described the challenges of acting against CGI creatures like Krypto the Superdog.
• The film features David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and a supporting ensemble including Isabela Merced, Anthony Carrigan and Nathan Fillion in a story that begins with Clark and Lois already in a relationship.
