Kevin Smith on directing Brandon Routh in “Zack and Miri.”

Jump to Comments

I was on set with Brandon and shooting the sequence where he acts incredibly gay. At one point I was like, ‘Hey man, I’m not looking a gift horse in the mouth but doesn’t Warner Bros. have some sort of moral clause? I mean, you played Superman! Are you really allowed to do this?’

In case you haven’t seen Zack and Miri, Routh plays a gay porn star that Elizabeth Banks’ character had a high school crush on.  In a movie full of awkward moments, the exchange between Banks, Routh and his partner (played by Justin Long) was definitely the best part of the movie for me.  Quote via Peter Knox, who found it on the Sun UK.  (Careful! Batman: RIP *SPOILERS* at the Sun link).
