Superman (Christopher Reeve)
There will never be anyone who plays Superman as well as Christopher Reeve. At least, he was the first reference we got of the character back in the ‘70s and ‘80s. When Richard Donner was casting the “Man of Steel,” the studio initially recommended A-list actors.
Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and Sylvester Stallone were some of the actors considered for the role. They thought that Reeve was too skinny, but after he bulked up, there was no one better suited for the role.
