"Superman: The Movie" Screening at the Richey Suncoast Theatre in New Port Richey, FL
Posted on April 13, 2024 by Neil Cole
The Historic Richey Suncoast Theatre in New Port Richey, FL will present various screenings of the 1978 blockbuster film, "Superman: The Movie" on Friday, May 24th through Sunday, May 26th as part of their Vintage Movie Night series.
One of the most well-regarded superhero films of all time, Superman was a box-office smash when it rocketed to Earth in 1978. The last son of the dead planet Krypton, Kal-El (Christopher Reeve) is found as a baby by Jonathan (Glenn Ford) and Martha Kent (Phyllis Thaxter) when his spaceship crashes just outside of Smallville, USA. Given the name "Clark" by his adopted parents, the boy grows up strong in the American heartland, developing amazing powers under the light of the yellow sun. One day, Clark finds a glowing crystal, and with it finds out about his alien heritage, the knowledge imparted to him by his birth father, Jor-El (Marlon Brando). The boy becomes a man, and moves to Metropolis to work for the Daily Planet newspaper, finding love in Lois Lane (Margot Kidder) and danger in the form of criminal genius Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman).
The screenings are sponsored by Yancy Street Comics and Henderlongs Six Strings & Superheroes. Wine, beer, soft drinks, popcorn and other snacks will be available for purchase during each screening at the theatre concessions bar.
Tickets for each screening are US$12.00 for all ages and US$103.00 for Reserved Box Seats. For more information or to purchase tickets, please visit RicheySuncoastTheatre.com.
