SUPERMAN REBORN | The Unmade 5th CHRISTOPHER REEVE Film

Host Anthony Desiato and Superman historian Ed Gross dig into SUPERMAN REBORN, the unmade fifth Christopher Reeve film written by Cary Bates and Mark Jones (based on a story by Bates, Jones, and producer Ilya Salkind).

This episode covers the long-unseen FIRST draft of the screenplay, which was performed live at The Broadwater Theater in Los Angeles on November 12, 2024, and is now available to view in its entirety HERE. It's the ultimate epilogue to the podcast's recent coverage of the Reeve film series!

PLUS: Anthony speaks with the man behind the script reading, David Kocher, all about how the production came to be! David's editor: Jacob Harlow ([email protected]).
