Darth Vader Trained Superman!
That's right, folks! I recently learned that when Christopher Reeve needed to bulk up to be Superman, he was coached by none other than David Prowse!

Great bit of trivia btw! (rated 6)

Nah I mean, lets face it, the actor underneath Darth Vader wasn't really important until the very last scene of Return of the Jedi, and then, that wasn't actually David Prowse.
Anyway, it was the "voice" that MADE Darth Vader! So to me Darth Vader is James Earl Jones (which makes sense, since Darth Vader is black).

I once met Superman at a Theatre I was working for. His wife, Dana Reeve, was in the cast of one of the plays and I was... I believe my title that summer was Slave... that sounds about right.
It was after his accident and he was blowing into a straw to move his wheelchair. For some reason a piano was blocking the handicapped access to the Theatre. Myself and a few other Slaves moved the Piano and he thanked us and talked to us for a while before he blew himself away to watch the show.
His hair was greyed for "Rear View Window" at the time and none of us knew it was dye. I couldn't help but feel a bit of my childhood die thinking Superman was dying. But he wasn't at the time... although he eventually did.
