‘Superman’ Has an Unexpected Take on Classic Romance
Before fans get to see more ofSupermanthis week, James Gunn and David Corenswet recently took the time totease the film’s central romancebetween Clark Kent and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan). Inspired by the classic 1940 romantic comedyHis Girl Friday, the upcoming DCU film will take the Clark-Lois relationship to another level compared to previous adaptations. “The rhythm, the patter, and the feeling of two people in love who really are an equal match for the other,” Corenswet stated. Meanwhile, Gunn teased that the three-month-long relationship may not be picture-perfect because of Lois potentially questioning their future together.
“[It’s] a personal journey for Superman that’s entirely new. He’s in love with her. She’s the one that needs the convincing in the relationship. It’s not him. You really see where he needs her in his life.”
This coincides with what Brosnahanpreviously confirmedabout Lois and Clark’s romance. Even after three months together,Supermanwill tackle how the dynamic duo have “opposite worldviews,” which leads to them asking questions about the seriousness of this relationship.
“They’ve been together for about three months, and they’re asking some questions about the future of their relationship. They’re not sure if this is something that was just a really great fling or something that could be forever, and they have really opposite worldviews — and they bump up against each other that way. So, it was a really fun way into a familiar story.”
