Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Superman is one of DC's most illustrious properties with a chronology of live-action movies whose release dates span decades, with several reboots begging the question of how to watch them in order. With modern comic book movies being so prolific, Superman boasts a status as one of the most iconic originators, with DC heroes in general being the most prevalent in earlier decades.
Every Superman Movie In Order With a cinematic legacy that began in the 1940s, Superman boasts one of the oldest filmographies in the superhero movie genre. His cross-generational legacy also boasts the accolade of featuring the first feature-length movie of any superhero, which would give way to entire cinematic franchises.
Superman And The Mole Men The first feature-length appearance of a DC hero in cinema features one of the most comic-accurate renditions of Superman in live-action thanks to George Reeves. Though the black-and-white movie falls short of doing Superman's famously vibrant outfit justice, this live-action depiction of Superman in the tail-end of the Golden Age of Comic Books expertly depicted a more lighthearted era as he confronts a particularly hammy cohort of villains.
The Donner Cut of Superman II is also worth a watch for fans of the director's original vision, though Superman II has had a greater impact on Superman's cinematic legacy.
The Original Superman Serial Timeline The original Superman serial debuted with 1948's Superman and 1950's Atom Man vs. Superman. Kirk Alyn starred in both serials, which were each composed of 15 chapters that totaled 244 and 252 minutes, respectively, and featured Superman's origin story and encounters with Lex Luthor. A timeline of feature length Superman movies wouldn't appear until three decades later, with Christopher Reeve in the starring role.
