Christopher Reeve’s Son Confirms Cameo in James Gunn’s Superman Movie

Will Reeve comments on his cameo in James Gunn’s Superman movie.

Putting the spotlight on Superman itself, Gunn touched upon how Christopher Reeve’s Metropolis Marvel influenced his own in 2023, avowing at the time, “How do you make it look believable? How do you take this outrageous concept of a guy who flies around and turn him into something real? I think that, you know, what we’re doing is different. It’s its own thing. But I’m definitely influenced by what [director Richard] Donner did with Superman, and what Christopher Reeve did with Superman, and Margot Kidder, who’s fantastic in the movie. She’s really the heart of it in a lot of ways.”

Additionally, Gunn delved into why Superman dropped its Legacy subtitle, conveying that everyone agreed that Superman “felt like the right name” when he brought it up to them, going on to further note, “[There] really hasn’t been a movie titled SUPERMAN since the [1978] movie was solely promoted as Superman: The Movie.”

Superman Gets Major Filming Update From James Gunn

Superman receives an exciting update from writer/director James Gunn as production nears completion on the hotly-anticipated DC Universe movie.

More recently, Gunn touched upon Corenswet’s Superman screen test with Lois Lane actor Rachel Brosnahan, asserting, “One year ago today David and Rachel screen-tested for Clark and Lois. When they first read together it was like magic. What a wonderful year it’s been with two of the most extraordinary, vibrant, and meticulous actors I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. I can’t wait for you to see them on screen in just a little over a year.”

Superman Will Feel Different From James Gunn’s Marvel Movies

Besides these bits of news, Gunn promised that Superman won’t feel like a Guardians of the Galaxy movie, remarking, “I learned so much from making [the Guardians of the Galaxy] movies. But it’s not like Superman is going to have exactly the same vibe as a Guardians movie. It’s actually quite different.”

Tying into this, Gunn also promised that Superman won’t be a comedy, asserting that it’s easier for one to “take a character nobody knows, like the Guardians [of the Galaxy], or Peacemaker,” and then do whatever they want with them, but people in every single country in the world know the story of Superman.
