Meet Superman!
Does doing a movie this big, this early, affect your career choices from here on?
In a way, I suppose it does -- I am not keen on another action role right away. I want to now be able to talk to, listen to, another actor rather than fly and do a stunt. I am eager to do something quieter. In another way, I've worked with Bryan Singer in my first movie, and with Kevin Spacey and Kate Bosworth. That sets the bar pretty high, so I suppose it will be a bit difficult working with others. But then, there are lots of other filmmakers I like, too, so it can be exciting, working with new people, fresh people and ideas.
You are signed on to do the sequel (scheduled for a 2009 release) -- this thing could become endless...
It could, sure, I suppose it depends on how excited people are by this one. It is part of the deal. I am part of it until someone comes along and does things differently and I step down and they continue. But, until that happens, I am more than happy to do it.
