Product Description:
Richard Lester (A HARD DAY'S NIGHT) originally helmed this sequel, but for this version Richard Donner (LETHAL WEAPON) has made significant re-edits and taken on the mantle of director. Lester's version excluded Marlon Brando's reprisal of his role as Jor-El from the first film, but Donner has scooped these scenes up from the cutting room floor and added them to his edit of the film.

Movie Lovers' Ratings & Reviews:
Based on 19350 ratings.
The synopsis on this page is in error. Both "Superman" and "Superman II" were filmed simultaneously by Richard Donner as director and was planned as a two-part story, but there was material yet to be finished on "Superman II" when disputes with Marlon Brando's appearance in II and disagreements between Warner's and Donner led both to leave the project. Richard Lester ("A Hard Day's Night") was brought in to finish the second film, and a number of scenes originally filmed by Donner were re-shot. Lester ended up getting full credit as director. Donner's version, with the scenes between Superman and Jor-El working better than the reshot scenes of Supes with his mother Lara, carries more of the tone later seen in Bryan Singer's "Superman Returns." Donner's version - slightly more serious. Lester's version - funnier.
