Simmons said that he was told, "'No, we don't want you to have the flat-top haircut,' and I was like, 'Wait, wait, wait. What?'"star said that when talk of losing Jameson's iconic mustache came up, however, he put his foot down over that particular staple of the newspaper editor's comic-book look. "It was a negotiation then at that point," he said. "Obviously, the most important thing is that he's still the same blowhard and he does have the same damn mustache, close to it, and cigar at least."
He added that this time around Jameson is a "slightly different version" of the character. "Certainly, from the creators of this iteration of the story, it's a very different character," he said. "To me, it's a slightly different character. It's the same blowhard... the same guy with less hair."
