Christopher Reeve’s son, Will Reeve, is reportedly set to make a cameo in James Gunn’s upcoming Superman movie. The upcoming superhero flick is shooting in Ohio and reporters at Cleveland.com captured Reeve’s appearance on set during a major scene being filmed in Cleveland.
Will, who works as a correspondent for ABC, is playing a reporter in the film. Gunn, who was tapped to co-lead a new series of movies based on popular DC comic book characters, is writing and directing the Man of Steel’s onscreen revival with David Corenswet starring in the titular role. The cast is rounded out by Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as the villainous Lex Luthor, Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific and Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl.
In one of the scenes being filmed, Cleveland.com reported that Superman “ appears to save a woman running from a giant, destructive monster.” Responding to a fan who asked if he was worried about set leaks, Gunn wrote on social media , “I’d never shoot a big spoiler outside in the middle of the city.
” Earlier this year, Gunn shared a first-look photo of Corenswet suiting up for action, as an explosion can be seen behind him. Will’s dad Christopher played Clark Kent/ Superman on the big screen in four films, beginning with 1978’s Superman directed by Richard Donner. He reprised the role in 1980’s Superman II , 1983’s Superman III and 1987’s Superman IV: The Quest for Pe.
