Next year's Superman reboot is the first film to share that title since the 1978 movie starring Christopher Reeve. Although Reeve passed away in 2004, director James Gann is including a nod to the late star in his Superman movie by featuring Reeve's son, Will Reeve, in a cameo role.
Via Cleveland.com, Will Reeve, who is a real-life reporter for ABC, will portray a TV reporter in Superman. In the outlet's footage from the shoot, Reeve's character is seen making a report on the streets of Metropolis. According to the outlet, Reeve’s character and the other extras in his scene were seen reacting to another superhero who arrives during this sequence. However, the report doesn't mention which hero it was. After filming his scene, Reeve was spotted hugging Gunn, and he was also given a round of applause from the cast and crew.

The first Superman movie established the tradition of former actors in the franchise making cameo appearances in the modern films. Kirk Alyn and Noel Neill, who previously portrayed Superman and Lois Lane respectively, appeared in the movie as Lois Lane's parents during a scene that was initially cut from the film. Reeve kept that tradition alive even after he was paralyzed from a horseback riding accident in 1995. In 2003 and 2004, Reeve made two guest appearances as as Dr. Virgil Swann on Smallville opposite Tom Welling's Clark Kent.
