World Chris Reeve double search for SII-TVYNS

[Zor-El]

from Superman Homepage:

The Superman Homepage can reveal exclusively that Warner Bros. held interviews last month to find a double for Christopher Reeve for additional footage they are shooting for the special edition DVD of "Superman II".
It is not known if Brandon Routh was available or considered, but I was told that the scenes involved were only a couple of shots from a distance. The interviews were for actors not photo-doubles. It probably would not have been worth it for them to bring in Brandon Routh.

This Donner Cut of "Superman II" is being released as part of the 14-disc Ultimate Edition Superman DVD collection scheduled for release later this year.

seems theres more work going into this than i had originally anticipated....sweet

Never hurts to be thorough. I wonder if they'll just be using the guy for Superman scenes, or Kent scenes. Maybe just for FX stuff? Whatever the case, I'm still dorking out like it's going out of style.
