Will Reeve, the son of the late actor and activist Christopher Reeve, put on a dashing display as he led the stars at the premiere of the new film Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story.
Will, 32, his brother Matthew and sister Alexandra were interviewed for the documentary, which charts their father Christopher's rise to fame, including his career-defining portrayal of Superman, as well as the near-fatal horse-riding accident that left him paralyzed from the neck down.
Will, who was the spitting image of his late father, was joined by his siblings, along with stars including Susan Sarandon and TV journalists including George Stephanopoulos and Robin Roberts, among others.
Will sported a well-tailored black suit that he dressed down with a matching tie-free black shirt that he wore partially unbuttoned, along with black leather shoes.
The muted look put the spotlight on his chiseled features and only enhanced the striking likeness he bears to his actor father, who died in 2004 at age 52.
