He may have handed writing duties over to Chris Terrio (Argo), but having developed the screenplay to Batman vs. Superman, David S. Goyer has now opened up to Collider about his work on the Man of Steel sequel, specifically how he managed to balance a roster that includes the likes of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman.

“I always try my best to honor every character. When you’re dealing with big iconic characters, there’s a lot of fan pressure to get it right, and I respect that and admire that passion enormously. At the same time, you can’t let your creative process be too crowded by that or distracted by it. It’s not always one uniform opinion of how you should portray this character or that character. I think I’ve done a pretty good job of walking that razor’s edge. You just have to do your best and know what’s out there, but at the same time, follow your own muse.”

Of course, considering Goyer’s recent comments about comic book movie fans, I doubt he’s too concerned with fan pressure or expectations…

Batman vs. Superman is set for release on May 6th 2016, with Zack Snyder directing a cast that includes Henry Cavill (Superman), Ben Affleck (Batman), Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Jesse Eisenberg (Lex Luthor), Amy Adams (Lois Lane), Diane Lane (Martha Kent), Laurence Fishburne (Perry White) and Jeremy Irons (Alfred Pennyworth).
