“Superman: Legacy” supervisor James Gunn required to social media sites on Friday to verify records that the component Bassem Youssef taped for was cut from the manuscript, and not due to the comic’s pro-Palestinian comments.
The Egyptian-born television host and satirist never ever formally obtained a deal to star in the superhero movie. According to an expert with expertise of the job, that sector of the manuscript was cut before the awful Oct. 7 Hamas strike on Israel.
Gunn created on X (previously Twitter) and Strings, connecting a record from IGN, “This is accurate.”
Gunn went better on Strings and included: “There isn’t one word against another. [Bassem] and I talked and we’re good. I understand how he thought things might be (which he was clear about in his interview), and I told him the whole story.”
Youssef formerly made a look on “Piers Morgan: Uncensored” last October and slammed Israel’s recurring battle with Hamas, which he thought expense him the component. He spoke better concerning the scenario in a meeting launched today.
“I was cast in the movie, ‘Superman,’ and then they told me, ‘We changed the script,’ after this Piers Morgan interview,” Youssef informed Hair salon. “I want to assume good faith. I want to know, I want to believe that this is true. I was a little bit bitter, and I wanted to go, I was like, ‘Oh, screw DC, screw Warner Bros.’ But then I understand, I understand the emotional burden that those people have. I mean, those people have a connection with Israel.”
“Superman: Legacy” starts manufacturing following month and will certainly be launched in movie theaters on July 11, 2025.
