The writer/director of this summer's "Superman" and the co-head of DC Studios offers a peek behind the curtain.

DC Studios co-head and "Superman" writer/director James Gunn has finally responded to online controversy over a shot from the very first teaser for the film. Gunn says the shot in question didn't have finished visual effects and was one he had taken out of the movie.

Opinion is sharply divided as to how high the superhero pic can fly when it hits theaters, with some suggesting a much lower range of $90 million to $120 million.
