Production details
Celebrate Hollywood's greatest cinematic superhero in 2020 as part of the Royal Albert Hall's Films in Concert series. Directed by Richard Donner, and showcasing a young Christopher Reeve, Superman (1978) features a star-studded cast including Margot Kidder as intrepid reporter Lois Lane, Gene Hackman as the villainous Lex Luthor, and the inimitable Marlon Brando as Jor-El. Donner's beloved film adaptation relays the inspiring origins of Superman, from his narrow escape as an infant from the doomed planet Krypton, to his formative years on a farm in Smallville, Kansas, and finally to his arrival in Metropolis, where he leads dual lives as mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent and as the mythical 'Man of Steel'.
Superman in Concert will see the film played in high-definition on the big screen, whilst John Williams' triumphant original score is performed by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra live to picture.
