In the late 1970\u2019s, two major movie franchises were born. One of them was based on a long-running superhero comic, and the other was a brand new sci-fi space saga. There also happens to be something of an odd connection between the two.<\/p>\n

In early 1977, Christopher Reeve<\/a><\/strong> was hired to play the lead in Superman<\/em>. Reeve would go on to famously play the role in the first four Superman films<\/a>, becoming a movie superstar whose name became synonymous with the role.<\/p>\n

However, when he was first hired, Reeve had one flaw in regards to the role: His physical appearance wasn\u2019t \u201csuper\u201d enough. Producers had trouble finding a good actor with a good enough physique, but ultimately decided on a styrofoam-padded suit that mimicked the muscular tone they sought.<\/p>\n
