@bijouxbroussard I was first entranced by the character when I watched the 1949 serial Batman and Robin in the children's matinee at a local cinema in about 1962. That was with Robert Lowery. Very dated now. I loved the Adam West era, but was glad it became more 'serious' with Michael Keaton as I matured.
@JSul3 No, I've never seen that one, only a few extracts. I believe it's somewhat controversial now for its portrayal of the villain which is seen by modern sensibilities as racist.
-No one could portray Obi Wan like Alec Guinness. -Sidney Poitier, as Virgil Tibbs; or Mr. Thackeray. -Tom Hanks as the calm, collected, Jim Lovell. -Heath Ledger as the Joker. -Christoph Waltz as SS officer Hans Landa
Sidepoint. Before Sherlock Holmes, Jeremy Brett was an actor in My Fair Lady as a love interest of Eliza Doolittle and sang the hit number "On the Street where you live"😷
@whowasthatmaskedman I remember. I was told at the time that his voice was dubbed, although I heard him sing in another production and he had a perfectly pleasant voice.
@bijouxbroussard I remember a few similar stories around My Fair Lady and the "thing" over Audrey Hepburn V Julie Andrews involving Voice dubbing and even the Oscars..😷
I agree with all of these, although Dean Cain was a good younger Superman, I thought. (Let's forget his politics.) Reeve was a big loss to the franchise and to acting generally, becoming a person to be admired after his tragic accident.
