MTV.com spoke with Zack Snyder at his press day (on March 18th) for his new movie "Sucker Punch" and asked him about selecting Henry Cavill to play Superman/Clark Kent over his second choice, Joe Manganiello.
- "Henry's just ... I love Joe too, by the way," Snyder said. "Really he was the only other guy I was thinking of, to be honest, other than Henry. But in the end, I think Henry just has this innocence too [in addition to the look and physicality required for the role], he has both, which is tricky," he explained. "Superman needs the teeniest bit of that. Not to be overt, but you like it to be there ever so slightly. I mean, he grew up in Kansas, that's just true, so you need a little of that [innocence]."
