(IESB) Robert Sanchez, who's apparently friends with director Kevin Munroe, spoke to Brandon, Munroe and producer Scott Rosenberg about the Dylan Dog movie Dead of Night. Brandon's Q&A contains some well thought responses to post-Superman perceptions plus his vision of Dylan Dog and how he plans on portraying the character.
I think as an actor it's very important to play different types of characters. You can go back and play similar ones as long as you've stretched and given audiences the opportunity to envision you as someone else. I have a great opportunity to do that with Dylan. He wasn't born to be a hero or save the day. He's not happy and smiling everyday, yet he still cares enough to help out. He's had dark moments, so he understands that side of life. He has faults that may make him more real and possibly more accessible for audiences than Kal-El. Where one character exhibits the potential greatness of mankind, the other is kinda, just a normal guy...who is still pretty rad and kicks the crap out of evil!
A big thanks to Kal-El of Krypton for posting the actual casting scoop months in advance!
