In what was his second film as the titular Man of Steel, the late, great Christopher Reeve returns as Kal-El, the Son of Crypton who has now settled in Metropolis under disguise as Clark Kent, a nerdy reporter a The Daily Planet who also pines for his fellow reporter Lois Lane played by the late, great Margot Kidder. As Superman, he is now doing his part to keep the human inhabitants of Planet Earth safe until.....three Kryptonians come calling lead by the aggrieved General Zod (Terence Stamp) who is seeking revenge against Kal-El after his late father had him imprisoned in the previous film. Together Zod, Ursa (Sarah Douglas), and Non (Jack O'Halloran) begin to wreak havoc on Earth and frigteningly, NO ONE can stop them as they each have similar powers to Kal-El. :o And what results is an intense battle of ONE vs. THREE....can Superman prevail this time around?? Directed by Richard Lester (A Hard Day's Night) taking over from Richard Donner....sort of, this beloved sequel also features returning cast members Gene Hackman, Jackie Cooper, Valerie Perrine, and Ned Beatty. KNEEL before ZOD!!!!
