Actors - Kirk Alyn |

| Kirk Alyn (October 8, 1910 - March 14, 1999) was an American actor. He is best known for being the first actor to play Superman on screen, in the 1948 Superman film serial and its 1950 sequel Atom Man Vs. Superman. Some critics argue that his portrayal of the Man of Steel was superior to that of George Reeves, because (in the tradition of radio's Superman, Bud Collyer) he played Clark Kent and Superman very differently, adding to the disguise. Reeves' characterizations of the dual roles were much more alike. However, Alyn lacked the "Greek god" look that Reeves possessed and which worked so well for him in the TV series. Alyn shared a very short cameo with his serial co-star, Noel Neill, as the parents of the young Lois Lane in the 1978 feature film, Superman: The Movie.
