It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s…!
In modern superhero movies, making characters like Superman fly is achieved primarily through computer-generated effects and advanced technology. However, in the original Superman film from several decades ago, creating the iconic flying scenes required complex wire setups that could suspend the actor or stunt double in mid-air.
Behind-the-scenes glimpses like this serve as a reminder of how practical effects can look significantly different from the finished product on the big screen. Yet, the ability to take seemingly silly concepts and transform them into visually stunning cinematic moments is an integral part of the magic of filmmaking.
