The future of the Superman series was shrouded with uncertainty. However, Andrew List from A-list Productions launched a trailer for the fan-made Kryptonian superhero movie Superman Solar. The movie features another military veteran named Glenn Kill who would be portraying the character of Superman in the fan-made movie. The director-actor duo met during their tenure in the US Army

During an interview, Andrew List had spoken about what was his inspiration behind coming up with Superman Solar. He mentioned-

“Superman has always been important in my life and he’s always been my favorite character in any media. What has always drawn me to the character goes beyond the powers and abilities. It’s his humanity, he chooses to live as one of us to understand our problems…and cares all the same.”

During an interview with the media outlet, Superman Solar director Andrew List spoke about his highly esteemed project. He even revealed why he has been so drawn towards the character of the Kryptonian superhero. He said-

“I’ve been attracted to the character since I was a kid, I would watch the movies over and over and continued to like him as a I grew up, but for different reasons. As a kid, it’s exciting to see a guy transform into this incredible being, but as I got older, it was his humanity that kept drawing me back to him. He’s this guy who, if he wanted to, could be an Omni-Man, Homelander or ‘Superman: Red Son.’
