and then I finally started to see it, and it was the culmination of a couple of things.

Number one, that I reread an old comic book I really like a lot called All-Star Superman.

And it had a sort of Silver Age yet grounded classically sort of science, old school science fiction, but again, really grounded characters and deep moral issues around the character of Superman.

And I saw how that wouldn't be the story that I could tell, but I could just rip off the way that comic book was.

Grant Morrison and Frank Quiley and Jamie Grant did that book.

So I think that was part of it.

And then just kind of just playing around with ideas and coming into it.

And then I got this stupid dog, Ozu, who was destroying all my stuff.

And I thought, oh my God, what if this dog had superpowers?

My life would be destroyed.

My house would look like it.

No, my dog's name is Ozu, but he is what Krypto is 3D modeled based upon.

Krypto's the name of the dog.

Yeah, he's Superman's super dog from the comics.

He's never been in the movies.

That's not always where I'm at with something, but with this film, I was.

I said to the cast when we sat down for our meal before we started that this is a movie about goodness.

And it isn't about a world that's kind.

The world in Superman is as unkind as our world in many ways.

But Superman is kind.
