Happy Birthday: Remembering the late great Christopher Reeve, aka Superman

Way before Henry Cavill became the "Man of Steel" for the DC Extended Universe and Brandon Routh flew for a one time film adventure in "Superman Returns", the world was introduced to the most iconic interpretation of DC Comics' very own Superman in 1978 when Christopher Reeve was cast to play the titular hero, better known by his birth name "Kal-El" and his human name Clark Kent. There was a charm to Reeve that still remains beloved by fans who have seen the Richard Donner film... And even after being rendered a quadriplegic through an accident in 1995 he still continued to inspire others with his determination and will to live beyond his handicap way until his death in 2004.

Despite being no longer with us, he'll be the person who made fans believe "A Man Could Fly".

Happy Birthday to the late great Christopher Reeve, aka Superman

As one of the most memorable Hollywood personalities in the world, Christopher Reeve has always been a figure that embodied the qualities of hope and determination, inspiring others with his charisma and dedication despite being paralyzed in an accident, turning it into a mission to seek and find different treatments for spinal-cord injuries.

Today would have been his 63rd birthday, and as always he is remembered for iconically playing Kal-El/ Clark Kent... Better known to the the world as "Superman" in the Richard Donner film of the same name.

This Epic Retrospective video made by Adeel of Steel is a fine piece to watch for those who have yet to see his portrayal of the DC Comics character... "You'll Believe A Man Can Fly".


Happy Birthday Christopher Reeve/ Superman! You are missed.

Happy 62nd Birthday, Christopher "Superman" Reeve!

He truly is a legend and an icon that will always be remembered and never forgotten... And the guy who made us believe a man can fly celebrates his 62nd Birthday this day.

Starring in the 1978 Richard Donner directed Superman: The Movie, Christopher Reeve was the man who brought to life Kal-El/ Clark Kent, the last son of Krypton who would be rocketed to Earth and become known as the Man of Steel and superhero Superman. Reeve's iconic presence and natural charisma would give his portrayal of Supes so much resonance and identity that it will forever be remembered as a classic visage and representation of one of DC Comics' iconic heroes... And we honor his memory by remembering him for being SUPER... Forever and always.

I think it goes without saying that we all remember the man behind the cape and legend. Today we celebrate what would have been his 60th birthday, and despite the tragic challenges and obstacles he had to endure because of paralysis that left him a paraplegic for life, he'll always be remembered for being an inspiration and a person who overcame all obstacles. We believed that a man could fly back in 1978, and he makes us believe that we can accomplish anything even in the after life.
