“I’m still preparing,” Rachel Brosnahan told us about her big role as Lois Lane in James Gunn’s DC movie Superman: Legacy.
“I’m talking to some journalists, I’m reading a lot of comics — so many I hadn’t read before,” added the actress.
“It’s been really fun to dig into this universe.”
Deadline’s chat with Brosnahan on the SAG Awards red carpet tonight comes in the wake of Gunn assembling the entire cast for a photo at the first script reading in Atlanta, GA earlier this week. One of the big surprises was seeing Nicholas Hoult’s already shaved head for his turn as Lex Luthor.
A big deal for Brosnahan during that get-together: “I got to see the suit — and I was blown away!” Suit, meaning not Lane’s rather the Man of Steel’s (played by David Corenswet).
Brosnahan screen tested for the highly coveted role of Superman’s g.f. beating out such actresses as Emma Mackey and Phoebe Dynevor for the part. On the big screen, among those actresses who’ve played Lane were Margot Kidder, Amy Adams and Kate Bosworth.
Brosnahan was nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actress in a Comedy Series for Amazon Prime’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
