Christopher Reeve was fascinated by the script



Without the help of a time machine, you can fly through time and space just by thinking. Maschin's extraordinary idea supports the core of the film, and the brilliant script, with beautiful details added to it, exceeds the expectations of the producers and captures the hearts of the Big names in the film industry one after another. First up is Christopher Reeve.


Reeve's agent, who received the script from producer Stephen Deutch, laughed at the salary he was offered. This was the first offer he had received since `` Superman '' (1978), which made Reeve a top star. Despite being treated lightly by his agent, Deutsch believed that this film needed a star, so he decided to go straight to the hotel where Reeve was staying and hand over the script. .

Then, the next day, he receives a phone call from Reeve and is told that he has agreed to appear on the show. This proves how much he liked the script, but there is also information that around the same time he was approached to appear in a Viking movie (title unknown) and was disappointed. For Reeve, a member of the Eastern elite and Juilliard School alumnus, it was never his intention to be associated with the superhero image. As a result, ``Somewhere in Time'' became, for him, one of the masterpieces of his lifetime, along with ``Superman.''
