A couple of weeks ago, we reported that DC head and Superman director James Gunn had added Will Reeve, son of beloved Superman actor Christopher Reeve to the cast of his upcoming film. Will has given his first comments to TMZ about what it was like filming the cameo, and it sounds like it was a fun, albeit nerve-wracking experience:

“I know the folks making the film, and they’ve been so kind to me and my family, and I had a free day, so we made it [happen]. I don’t know what I’m allowed to say. It was a really great experience; they were super friendly; it was quick, easy…I was actually more nervous doing that than I am whenever I’m on TV for my normal job because there was so many people around and I had to memorize one line, but still!”

Will has a fair amount of experience in front of the camera. After interning at Good Morning America and graduating from Middlebury College, Will earned a spot on ESPN’s SportsCenter and has been a correspondent for ABC News since 2018. But this probably felt like it had a lot of emotion involved, and it makes sense that Reeve was nervous. It will be so cool to see him onscreen in this film though! I’m glad he got to be a part of it.

The film stars David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman; Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane; Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor; Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern; Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl; Edi Gathegi as Michael Holt / Mr. Terrific; Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen; María Gabriela de Faría as Angela Spica, aka The Engineer; Sara Sampaio, as Eve Teschmacher; and Terence Rosemore as Otis.

Superman will tell the story of “Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.”

Superman will launch the movie part of DC Studios’ Gods and Monsters: Part 1. It’s scheduled for a theatrical release on July 11, 2025.
