`Superman,' `Lethal Weapon' director Richard Donner dies | Entertainment


Lauren Shuler Donner, his wife and producing partner, told the Hollywood trade Deadline that Donner died Monday.
Donner gained fame with his first feature, 1976’s “The Omen.” A then-unheard-of offer followed: $1 million to direct 1978’s “Superman.” Donner channeled his love of the character into making the film, repeatedly facing off with producers over the need for special effects that would convince the audience that a superhero could really fly. In the title role, Donner cast Christopher Reeve, who was associated with “Superman” for the rest of his life.
By the 21st century, the genre was dominating the box office in the U.S. and thriving overseas. The heads of Marvel Studios and DC Entertainment—producers of most of today’s superhero fare— both worked for Donner when they were starting out in Hollywood.

Steven Spielberg, who produced “The Goonies," wrote in a statement that, “Dick had such a powerful command of his movies, and was so gifted across so many genres. Being in his circle was akin to hanging out with your favorite coach, smartest professor, fiercest motivator, most endearing friend, staunchest ally, and — of course — the greatest Goonie of all. He was all kid. All heart. All the time. I can’t believe he’s gone, but his husky, hearty laugh will stay with me always.”

Tributes also poured in on Twitter Monday, including from “Goonies” star Sean Astin.
“Richard Donner had the biggest, boomiest voice you could imagine,” Astin wrote. “He commanded attention and he laughed like no man has ever laughed before. Dick was so much fun. What I perceived in him, as a 12 year old kid, is that he cared. I love how much he cared.”

Man Of Steel Director Zack Snyder Pays Tribute To Superman: The Movie Director Richard Donner


Man Of Steel Director Zack Snyder Pays Tribute To Superman: The Movie Director Richard Donner
✖
Earlier today, the film and comics industries were saddened by the loss of Richard Donner. The filmmaker behind hits like
Superman: The Movie and the
Lethal Weapon movies passed away today, according to statements from his wife,
Superman: The Movie was a massive hit, and continues to influence basically every superhero adaptation you see come to live action. He also had a high-profile dust-up with Warner Bros. over
Superman II.
Years after it was initially produced and released, Warner released
Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut on DVD. Widely regarded as the superior cut of the movie, it is as close as Donner could come (given the fact that it was 20 years later and he had none of the actors or sets to reshoot anything) to making a "director's cut" for a movie that he shot part of before being replaced. If there's anybody who can relate to that, it's probably
