Superman Returns is a 2006 superhero film based on the fictional DC Comics character, Superman. The film is directed by Bryan Singer, and stars Brandon Routh, Kate Bosworth and Kevin Spacey. The screenplay is by Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris.
Filming began on February 2005 and the movie was released in the United States on June 28, 2006. Bryan Singer has said that the loose continuity established in the first two Christopher Reeve Superman films serves as its back-story, or, as he put it, a "vague history". The late Marlon Brando reprises his role as Superman's biological father, Jor-El, from Superman, using computer-generated techniques coupled with footage from the Superman franchise archives.
Released alongside the film was a documentary, Look, Up in the Sky: The Amazing Story of Superman, covering the history of the Superman franchise with input from Bryan Singer, as well as other past and present actors, directors, writers, artists, and fans.
Shooting of Superman Returns was initiated in Australia, on locations that included a farm located outside of the regional town of Gunnedah in North West NSW, and Sydney. Some other scenes were shot in the United States. The film was shot entirely on high-definition video using a Panavision Genesis camera.
