They hired The Godfather author Mario Puzo to write a massive script. The vision was summed up by a single word, “verisimilitude”. Casting was equally high-stakes. Marlon Brando and Gene Hackman were secured at record salaries, but the real breakthrough was Christopher Reeve, a 23-year-old unknown whose mix of earnestness and quiet strength made him the definitive Clark Kent. Shot at Pinewood Studios and on locations across New York, Canada, and the Rockies, the production pioneered visual effects. Zoran Perisic’s “Zoptic” camera system finally allowed audiences to “believe a man can fly,” while Derek Meddings’s miniatures sold the film’s disaster spectacle. Released in December 1978, Superman was an instant hit, earning over $300 million worldwide, winning a Special Achievement Oscar for Visual Effects, and scoring three Academy Award nominations (including Best Score for Williams). Critics hailed it as a joyous mix of adventure, romance, and wonder.
