"That sort of all got blown out of proportion. I had a very brief chat with them and that's all it was. From a 30-second chat, it's become this huge thing," Vaughn told MTV. "It hadn't gone as far as casting, we just had an idea for a story for Superman — that was it."

"I think they're both talented, so it's in good hands — I just hope they don't make it too serious," he said when asked about how he feels now that the character is in the hands of Christopher Nolan and David Goyer. "I think that's the one thing not to do with Superman, trying to do the serious 'The Dark Knight' version. Superman is about color and fun, or it should be, for me."

And as for how he feels about Bryan Singer's 'Superman Returns' he said, "It had no idea what it was. Was it a remake, a prequel or a sequel? What was it? I actually think Bryan Singer has done some fabulous movies, but I felt that that was just a mess. There's no other way to describe it."
