A First Look at “Super,” Starring Juno as Hit-Girl
What? Well, you watch this first clip from Super and you tell me what’s going on. I don’t actually mind it; Super is directed by James Gunn, who also did the very fun horror movie Slither, so it’s got that going for it. And it’s got Rainn Wilson and Ellen Page, two actors that can get one some people’s nerves but that I actually like, especially in this scenario, where Wilson is the straight man and Page is batshit fucking crazy. Still, I’m pretty sure this isn’t for everybody. Thoughts? (Via Comics Alliance)
