On Whether He's Been Allowed To Look At The Script:

"No, they haven't even asked me to read it. It's Warner Bros!"

On What He Thought Of Superman Returns:

"I mean I thought Bryan Singer did a wonderful job with the other film (Superman Returns). You could just do massive action and blow up stuff, but he chose to do the characters more, although he had some beautiful stuff in there."

On What He Thinks About Zack Snyder Getting The Job Of Director:

"Well, I think he could do a great job. You know he's certainly a good director and hopefully he's got a good handle on it."

On How Zack Snyder Should Handle The Balance Of Action And Drama:

"I don't think he's going to want to compete with the best effects out there. I'm tired of it already. I'm tired of those ... what are those machines? Transformers! Really, I mean they were great but lets settle back people and focus on the characters. The characters in Superman are just wonderful."
