SARAH DOUGLAS - SUPERMAN STAR 'BRANDS REEVE DULL'

SUPERMAN STAR 'BRANDS REEVE DULL'

British actress SARAH DOUGLAS has reportedly launched an attack on her late SUPERMAN co-star CHRISTOPHER REEVE - branding him "dull" and "difficult" to work with.
Douglas, who played baddie Ursa in two of the iconic superhero movies, has spoken out about her true feelings for Reeve, who died in 2004 from a heart attack after years of being wheelchair-bound following a horse-riding accident in 1995.
And the 55-year-old apparently admits she wasn't his biggest fan on the sets of Superman and Superman II, insisting he got wrapped up in playing the beloved role.
According to Britain's Daily Express, she said: "I've never really spoken about Christopher because he is no longer here to defend himself.
"But I used to be continually asked about him and, choosing my words carefully, would always say he's very much like Clark Kent: a real gent - very polite and perhaps a little dull.
"I never really knew him that well. I socialised with everybody else but not him. But at the beginning he was a very fresh-faced young American and at the end it was difficult. He definitely got caught up with his own Superman image."
And the actress soon realised she wasn't the only one struggling to work alongside Reeve - she alleges Margot Kidder, famous for her role as Lois Lane in the films, described him as "a right pain in the a***".
And Douglas admits this made her feel better about her own opinions, adding: "I was so relieved that somebody else had found him tricky."
