Personal Quote:
[on
László Kovács, cinematographer] He is and was such a genius. He loved light so much. He and Vilmos [cinematographer
Vilmos Zsigmond]. It was like you'd toss a coin. "Who are we going to get? Who's available? Get me one of them Hungarians!"

Trivia:
Was asked to direct the fourth Superman film (
Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987)), and considered it alongside
Tom Mankiewicz, who had been the writer of the first two Superman films, but ultimately both Donner and Mankiewicz declined, as they had other projects to deal with at the time.
