Christopher Reeve as Superman and Henry Cavill in handcuffs from Man of Steel
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Superman actor Christopher Reeve once faced the same problem Zack Snyder did when making 2013’s Man of Steel. Considered by many to be the best live-action portrayal of DC’s beloved superhero, Reeve first assumed Superman’s iconic tights and cape for 1978’s Superman: The Movie. He would reprise the role three more times, culminating in 1987’s widely panned Superman IV: The Quest for Peace.
Christopher Reeve agreed to do a fourth Superman movie that became The Quest For Peace, because Warner Bros. promised to greenlight a different movie that he wanted to do if he would come back and do one more Superman movie. So he said, 'I'll do it, but I want to have full creative control, and I want to get Donner and Mankiewicz back to do this. And for a hot second, they considered doing it. They ultimately passed.
Ultimately, it's funny that thirty years later that's all that Zack Snyder was interested in. That's a take, you know, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that take, but it's a specific take. It's interesting to think back in the late '70s and the early '80s, even in a mass market, popular depiction of Superman... You know, I wouldn't argue The Quest For Peace is a successful Superman movie. I applaud the swing.
While Reeve’s final outing as Superman is generally considered his most flawed, his interest in seeing Superman’s character refocus his efforts onto solving real-world problems is certainly not unique. Not only would Snyder attempt to build his version of the Last Son of Krypton on similar philosophical musings, but countless other writers would have him battling worldly issues tracing as far back as his earliest comic outings.
