Christopher Reeves children: Matthew, Alexandra and Will

Reeve was a guest at the Emmy Awards last night. On the red carpet, he was asked about his cameo in the film, which he described as a “beautiful full-circle moment” for longtime Superman fans. “I promise you, it's not a big moment,” Will said when talking about his role. “But it was a lot of fun. If you blink, you'll miss it, but it was a blast,” he said with a smile.

“It's an honor,” he continued. “I think it's a beautiful full-circle moment. It's great for the fans who have loved Superman for so many decades, and now that DC is rebooting the Superman franchise… I'm honored to be a part of it. I'm really excited to see what happens.”

Will Reeve reveals his family's 'dining table' rules after his father's accident

Will Reeve and his siblings Matthew and Alexandra have spoken about their family life since their father's accident over the past year. The children have promoted the documentary “Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story” and told many stories that complete the picture of their father.

During an appearance on “Good Morning America,” Will revealed that family dinners became very important after her father's injury. “Whether it was good news, bad news or scary news, dinner was family time. 'How was school?' They sat next to each other at the head of the table,” Will said. “My mom fed him and herself. We had friends come over. It was very happy, hearty, loud – everything you want from a family dinner.”

“That was every night, and the only thing you weren't allowed to talk about was specific medical things. It could have been anything.”
