#55 – Exclusive interview with JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED’s Superman GEORGE NEWBERN

“What we have here is a rare opportunity for me to cut loose, and show you just how powerful I really am!”

Alan & Rob are excited to be joined by none other than the voice of Clark Kent/Superman himself, actor George Newbern.

Star of iconic 80’s and 90’s films such as “Adventures in Babysitting” and the “Father of the Bride” movie franchise, George chats with the lads about what it was like to work with Christopher Reeve on 1988’s “Switching Channels,” the surreal experience of playing Nintendo with Brad Pitt and David Schwimmer on the set of “FRIENDS,” his love and respect for the late great Kevin Conroy and what it’s been like to voice The Man of Steel for over 25 years on projects like “Justice League,” “Justice League Unlimited” and the “Injustice” series of games.

George will be appearing at Dublin Comic Con on Aug. 24 and 25, 2024. Tickets are on sale now!
