April 9, 2015: Take Your Photo With Margot Kidder at Niagara Falls

Niagara Falls Fans attending the 2015 Niagara Falls Comic Con this June will have an opportunity to get their photo taken with Margot Kidder at the same spot she and Christopher Reeve filmed scenes for "Superman II".

    Kidder will return to the falls for a special photo opportunity while she is visiting Niagara as part of her appearance at Niagara Falls Comic Con. A limited number of super fans will be able to have a photo taken with the actress in the exact spot the movie was filmed.

    Kidder has fond memories of the filming here, especially the scenes along the Niagara River.

    "I actually insisted on doing the bit where Lois clambers, sputtering, out of the Niagara River by myself. The stuntmen rolled their eyes but said nothing, so they harnessed me up, had six strong stuntmen making a circle behind me, and I stepped into the river," Kidder said from her home in California. "The current was so strong, but I was too proud to cry uncle. So frightened as I now was, as I should have been in the first place, I did the shot over and over again. I have never appreciated stuntmen and the stuff they put themselves through, more than I did that day."

     "This will be the first and probably only time that fans will ever get a chance to get a photo with Margot in the exact spot she filmed Superman II 35 years ago," said Chris Dabrowski, President of Niagara Falls Comic Con. "This opportunity will truly be a piece of movie history. It's once in a lifetime."

The special photo opportunity will take place at 11.00am on Friday, June 5, outside at Table Rock Centre. Only those with pre-purchased tickets will be allowed within the area of the photo opportunity. Tickets include a photo with Margot Kidder, and an 8x10 print of the rare moment caught on camera. Tickets are limited to only 50 and are available by visiting the Niagara Falls Comic Con website at www.nfcomiccon.com and clicking on "Buy Tickets". Tickets for the photo-op are available until Tuesday, June 3.
