Kurt Russell, who starred in James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, talks about whether or not he would be open to play Jor-El in Superman: Legacy as part of the DC Universe.
In a new interview with Comic Book, Russell was directly asked if he had any interest in playing Superman’s biological father, Jor-El, in Gunn’s Superman: Legacy. While reflecting on the performance by Marlon Brando in Superman: The Movie, Russell shared the following about potentially joining Gunn’s DC Universe as Jor-El:
Yeah! Yeah, I’ll take on Marlon Brando! I mean there was something awesome about the way he was just looking around – I don’t care that he was looking at his lines – he’s crazy great to watch! You know what: we don’t know a lot about Jor-El. Maybe there’s a version… I never heard this, so I don’t know. James Gunn was a blast to work with though, so you never know.
