In an interview this week, the conservative actor, who starred as the cape-wearing hero on “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” from 1993 to 1997, complained that he thinks Gunn has made the character too “woke” due to today’s political climate.

James Gunn’s Superman finally opens in wide release today, and the expectations for the film are quite significant. It’s been reported that the movie needs to have a pretty significant box office take in order to be a financial success.

The former Superman takes issue with the director's comments about the new movie being an immigration allegory: "We know Superman is an immigrant — he's a freaking alien."
