There’s really no other option here. Even 40 years after “Superman: the Movie” hit theaters, Christopher Reeve is still the actor who defines Superman more than any other. Other actors might have the benefit of bulkier physiques or better special effects, but none of that can replace the simple warmth, confidence and deep-seated strength Reeve brought to the character. Even when the movies themselves were lousy, Reeve’s Superman was always the hero we deserved.
