Superman: The Movie (1978)

Synopsis: Academy Award winners Marlon Brando and Gene Hackman head an all-star cast in the action-packed film that made Christopher Reeve an international star playing the greatest superhero of all time. From the doomed planet of Krypton, two parents launch a spaceship carrying their infant son to earth. Here he grows up to become Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for the Metropolis Daily Planet. But with powers and abilities far beyond those of ordinary men, he battles for truth and justice as Superman. (Gary Reber)

Director: Richard Donner
Stars: Marlon Brando, Gene Hackman, Margot Kidder & Christopher Reeve

Superman II (Theatrical Version) (1980)

Synopsis: Unwittingly released from Phantom Zone imprisonment, three superpowered Planet Krypton criminals (Terence Stamp, Sarah Douglas and Jack O'Halloran) plan to enslave Earth –– just when Superman (Christopher Reeve) decides to show a more romantic side to Lois Lane (Margot Kidder). Gene Hackman also returns as Lex Luthor in this sequel that features a top supporting cast, witty Richard Lester direction, and visuals that astound and delight. (Gary Reber)

Director: Richard Lester
Stars: Gene Hackman & Christopher Reeve

Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut (2006)

Director: Richard Donner
Stars: Marlon Brando, Gene Hackman, Margot Kidder, Christopher Reeve & Richard Pryor

Superman III (1983)

Synopsis: Meet Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor), a naive computer-programming natural. For him, a keyboard is a weapon –– and, as a result, Superman faces the microelectronic menace of his life. Christopher Reeve reprises his signature role, deepening his character’s human side as Clark Kent sees Lana Lang (Annette O’Toole) at a Smallville High class reunion. And when the Man of Steel becomes his own worst enemy after exposure to Kryptonite, Reeve pulls off both roles with dazzling skill. Relive Superman III with all its heart, heroism and high-flying humor.(Gary Reber)

Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987)

Synopsis: Christopher Reeve not only dons the title hero’s cape for the fourth time but also helped develop the movie’s provocative theme: nuclear disarmament. To make the world safe for nuclear arms merchants, Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) creates a new being to challenge the Man of Steel: the radiation-charged Nuclear Man (Mark Pillow). The two foes clash in an explosive extravaganza that sees Superman save the Statue of Liberty, plug the volcanic eruption of Mount Etna and rebuild the demolished Great Wall of China. (Gary Reber)

Director: Sydney J. Furie
Stars: Gene Hackman , Margot Kidder & Christopher Reeve
