A lot of the stuff you do as an actor - or I do, because I can't speak for everyone - is not always consciously thought out. A lot of the time, for me, it's actually just feeling stuff, and it happens all in the moment and your body reacts.

I suppose that when I'm building a character, it's usually related to what their family is like and who their parents are, as well as how I grew up - that nurture side.

I work out two, two and a half hours a day. For 'Immortals,' it was body-weight stuff: crunches, pullups, and martial arts-based cardio.

As an outside; don't worry about failure, because failure will take care of itself. Focus on success.

I didn't see a lot of comic books growing up.

Superman isn't moody or brooding or aggressive.

My version of Superman is essentially of a guy who has spent his whole life alone.
