Superman isn't moody or brooding or aggressive.

There is a story that you have to tell within a certain amount of time, and you can only show so much of the character. So as much as the script is born from the source material, there are certain limitations.

I'm from a family of six men, so I'm bound to be physical.

If I'm talking to someone and they're feeling a certain way, I will definitely tie into that very quickly. You have to learn to read emotions and feelings when you grow up in a family with four brothers - especially if three of them are a lot bigger than you.

If someone's trying to intimidate me, male or female, I don't respect them enough to be intimidated.

My mother works in a bank and my dad is the head of my management team and also works in finance.

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.
