Christopher Reeve – Will Reeve
If you didn’t know, looking at the photo of Will Reeve, on the right, you might just think it’s a younger photo of his father, Superman actor Christopher Reeve. Sadly, Christopher passed away in 2004, at the age of 52, due to complications from a bedsore infection. Sadly, this left Will an orphan, as his mother died a few years prior because of lung cancer.
Thankfully, the losses didn’t keep Will from building a career of his own. While he dabbled in acting, first appearing in 1997 In The Gloaming, his calling (at least for now) seems to be sportscasting. He currently works for ESPN on Sportscenter. “[My family] shared a very deep bond in general, but sports was definitely a major component of our family bond,” Will said to People Magazine.
