Superman features a very brief voice cameo from a second Lex Luthor actor besides Nicholas Hoult, Smallville's Michael Rosenbaum. Blue Beetle star Xolo Maridueña revealed what he thought of James Gunn's first DCU movie, Superman, while talking Smurfs.

Gunn's secret to success isn't as elaborate as a Fortress of Solitude or as diabolical as a chunk of glowing Kryptonite. Rather, his approach seems to be something his contemporaries at Marvel and WB might have forgotten.

And, like Superman in his film, that’s the kind of character we need right now, as the future of the DC Studios universe of movies is plotted out. For so long, Superman has been considered by many to be the ‘default’ superhero because he’s always shown as practically perfect in every way.
