The directors of the Christopher Reeve Superman documentary break down the late actor's narration in the movie: "You always want the person to tell their own story"

Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story (2024).

New documentary Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story chronicles the life of the legendary American actor, who will always be remembered for donning the Man of Steel's red cape. We see his life both before and after a horse riding accident left him paralyzed from the neck down, with his friends, family, and collaborators telling his story.

One other voice we hear narrating Reeve's story is the man himself, which may initially be surprising given that he died in 2004. However, his voice here isn't created through AI or other technology, as it is in fact Reeve's own using audio from his recordings for his two books 'Still Me' (1999) and 'Nothing is Impossible' (1990).
