He realizes that legions of moviegoers want summer popcorn flicks with loads of action. And he also learned through his experiences as director of two ?X-Men? films that action alone won?t hold an audience, that the story has to get people emotionally involved, make them care about his characters. And that?s the battle Singer wages as he brings ?Superman Returns? to theaters this July, creating an exciting, action film with a compelling story and characters you care about. ?If the story and the characters aren?t working,? Singer revealed to Wizard in a three-hour sitdown in his Hollywood home, ?no one gives a s--t about how big the action is.? And the biggest challenge for Singer? ?The toughest part was making Superman fly,? Singer admitted. ?It?s very challenging from a physical and practical F/X standpoint. I?m constantly combining the two. Deliberating on the physics of Superman and keeping it believable and keeping you emotionally involved in the story is so challenging-F/X wise, it?s just so hard.? Singer details all the challenges of bringing Superman to the big screen, and he also reveals his favorite movie of all time and the connection between his movie and TV?s ?Smallville? in a rollicking eight-page interview in Wizard?s Mega Movie issue, which hits comic shops on Wednesday. With interviews with Hugh Jackman, Jack Black, Rosario Dawson, Seth Green and more and information on ?Spider-Man 3,? and sequels to ?Batman Begins,? ?Fantastic Four,? ?Sin City,? ?Hellboy? and more, be sure to pick up this blockbuster issue!
