June 4, 2011: Ilya Salkind Appearing at California Convention

"Superman: The Movie" producer Ilya Salkind will be among the celebrity guests appearing at the upcoming "Hollywood Show" taking place in Burbank, California on July 15 - 17.

Ilya and his father Alexander, along with producing partner Pierre Spengler, purchased the film rights to the Superman property in August 1974. It was agreed that the Salkinds would produce and supervise filming on "Superman: The Movie" and "Superman: II" simultaneously, as had been the case with "The Three Musketeers" and "The Four Musketeers".

Started in 1979, The Hollywood Show is perhaps the best known autograph show in the Hollywood area. It is legendary among autograph shows, not only for the celebrities who appear, but the crowds each event brings. It's the only celebrity autograph convention held four times per year. Currently taking place in Burbank, California, The Hollywood Show has earned the reputation of being "THE PLACE" for celebrities to appear, and known worldwide as the perfect place for fans to get "up close and personal" with their favorite stars!

Other celebrities joining Salkind at the convention include John Schneider (Dukes of Hazzard, Smallville), Ed Asner (El Dorado, Up), Jon Provost (Lassie), Jay North (Dennis the Menace), Beverly Washburn (Old Yeller) and Ernest Borgnine (From Here to Eternity) just to name a few.
