Prince Harry and Superman are more alike than you think

Evening Standard

September 04, 2023

PLEASE don't take this the wrong way, but I think Prince Harry might be Superman. Back in the Seventies, before the current vogue for turning superheroes into movie franchises, the Hollywood producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind decided to reboot the famous DC Comics alter-ego and turn Superman into a proper movie star.

- Dylan Jones

Prince Harry and Superman are more alike than you think

Casting the ridiculously good-looking Christopher Reeve in the role, the resulting movie was phenomenally successful, thus necessitating a much anticipated (and already planned, and partially shot) sequel.

Which is where the rogue royal comes in. In Superman II, Lois Lane (Meghan, say, for the purposes of argument) begins to think her colleague Clark Kent (Hazza, obviously wearing a rug) might actually be Superman (I know, crazy right? Whatever gave her that idea?), and so starts to become suspicious, monitoring her pal's movements as she slowly starts to realise the truth.

One night, as Kent trips and his arm lands in a lit fireplace, he is revealed. His hand is unscathed, Kent is exposed, and so he is forced to tell Lane that yes, he is Superman. He then takes her to the Fortress of Solitude way up in the Arctic (which you might want to imagine as Frogmore Cottage, in Windsor), where he shows her all his Kryptonite stuff (pictures of him with the Queen, Prince Philip, Polaroids from a lads trip to Klosters with his brother etc), before declaring his undying love for her.
