“It’s so funny, that first video that came out of me, I didn’t even know I was being filmed. I was at one of those conventions, and someone asked me if I’d ever do it, and I’ve always told people it’s not up to me. And I think the person asked me like, ‘If James Gunn wanted you to,’ and it’s like, yeah, if James Gunn wanted me to! I trust James Gunn. I love all the movies he’s put out, I’m a fan. And then yeah, I guess he caught wind of that and said something nice. Not even when all that went down! I think it was beforehand about something completely un — like, we’ve never talked about Flash. We’ve talked, just like, I’m a huge Superman fan. I’ve always been a Superman fan, since I was a kid. So I’m just really excited about the movie. And I’m excited about David’s casting. I’m excited to see what James Gunn does with it. So I think at one point — maybe a couple different times, we’ve DM’d about ‘Superman.’ We’ve literally never talked Flash. I’m just excited that he’s doing Superman.”
