Christopher Reeve’s son is all grown up – and looks just like his super hero dad

There are a lot of stories out there about kids who have grown up to look just like their celebrity parents.

From Michael J Fox’s twin daughters to Julia Roberts’s lookalike teen daughter and even Elvis Presley‘s grandson; there are a lot of celebrity offspring making us do a double take when we look at them.

But, in the case of Christopher Reeve’s 25-year-old son Will he’s not only the spitting image of his father but is working hard to continue his father’s inspirational legacy.

The Superman star had two children Alexandra and Matthew with his former partner, Gae Exton, and then a son Will with actress Dana Morosini.

At just 13 years old their son Will was left an orphan.
Today, Will has grown up to look just like his father – but until now has kept largely out of the spotlight.

Will has finished his education and has a blossoming career in the sports news industry.

Over a decade later, Will is now 27 years old, and has clearly inherited his father’s good looks; the resemblance is

But that isn’t the most remarkable thing about this young man but the fact that he is continuing the good work his parents started.

Will could have gone downhill or off the rails after suffering such trauma at such a young age but thanks to his parent’s strong guidance and his own strength of character he did not allow himself to descend into darkness.

“There’s something my father used to say and which I use frequently today to not only honor his legacy but to imbue a new generation with his timeless spirit: ‘A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles,’” he said in a Daily Mail article.

Will and his dad also shared a love of sports and today is a contributor to ESPN’s SportsCenter, a job he promised his parents he would achieve.

He got the job after interning at ‘Good Morning America’ and working there as a production assistant while attending Middlebury College.

He continues the work his parents started, looking to find new therapies and helping to lead the fundraising for more breakthroughs in technology for spinal injury patients through the foundation.

I know his parents would have been so proud of what this young man has already achieved. He is such an inspiration.
