PINEWOOD STUDIOS (1978) SUPERMAN II PRODUCTION SHOTS

Pinewood Studios news story in 1978. Superman II & Watcher In The Woods was being filmed at the time.

The 1978 date is definitely incorrect. The publicist confirms that, during the interview, the cast for SUPERMAN II is filming at Niagara Falls, which was done in September 1979.

I think the listed year is wrong. The title claims 1978, but Superman II filming (other than the stuff already filmed by Donner in ‘77) was done in 1979. 1979 is further supported by remarks at the end of the video, saying that "Watcher In The Woods” would be released “May or June of next year” (it was released in the spring of 1980).

Possibly the Richard Lester reshoots? As Donner was fired from II and Lester took over from Donner as Donner completed 80% of II already.

Intresting stuff!

Still looking for that brief British Superman II behind the scene look which featured Terence Stamp's stuntman in a scene from S2 and a blooper showing Christopher Reeve flying with an eagle (deleted scene from the first film?).

Oh wow! "The Watcher in the Woods!" I love that movie. It's interesting how they made the front of that office building be part of the front of the mansion in the movie. Fun back when Disney wasn't trying to be so annoyingly PC.
