Never would I intend to disrespect in any way, shape or form, this experience has taught me a valuable lesson as to the context and the nuance of editorial liberties.

When you're aware of how people perceive you, you can't always remain true to yourself, and that was an interesting thing for me to apply to the character as well - exploring these different facets of his personality while having certain bits of it stripped away. The arrogance of a person who would have the kind of power that Superman does - we see that in The Return of Superman. Superman is not that character, but since he has all of those powers, he has that capacity for arrogance.

A large amount of constant activity will get things going. For example, training in the morning will have everything, all the juices flowing by the time you actually get to work.
