I was really disappointed that Warner Bros. didn't think highly enough of my film or my filmmaking to ask me to make the new Superman.

I was an actor... or, at least, I was trying to be an actor.

Superman was never previewed because the producers didn't trust Warners with the film.

I realized what you could do in motion pictures by surrounding yourself with geniuses.

How was I going to make a man fly? How was I going to convince the public that an actor could fly?
