Directed by Zack Snyder, the film sought a &#8220;grounded&#8221; realism, but Adams confessed that Cavill&#8217;s physical presence made professionalism nearly impossible.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">She did not merely observe; she was &#8220;overwhelmed.&#8221; Adams recalled that when Cavill walked in with the suit and cape, she &#8220;giggled like a five-year-old girl.&#8221; The &#8220;intrepid&#8221; Lois Lane was gone, replaced by an actress who found herself &#8220;speechless&#8221; in the face of what she described as &#8220;physical perfection.&#8221; She later joked about having to apologize for &#8220;objectifying&#8221; her co-star, admitting that his &#8220;distractingly handsome&#8221; look made it a struggle to &#8220;excavate&#8221; her lines from her memory.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<hr data-path-to-node=\"5\" \/>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"6\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The Specimen of the &#8220;Man of Steel&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The impact of Cavill&#8217;s casting was not limited to his co-stars; it &#8220;paralyzed&#8221; the entire crew.
