The late Christopher Reeve’s eldest son Matthew Reeve has made a documentary on the Superman star, reports IANS from New York.

Pagesix.com reports that the movie shows Reeve struggling with his life after his 1995 horse-riding accident that paralysed him from the neck down.

It also has some frank interviews and footage of his time in rehab till his death from heart failure in 2004. The movie will be out on DVD in November.

World’s first commercial nuke plant demolished
Demolition experts blew up on Saturday the giant cooling towers of the world’s first commercial nuclear power station, 51 years after it was opened in northwest England, reports AFP from London.

The first two of the four 88 metre high cooling towers at Sellafield were demolished at 9 am (1330 IST), sending a cloud of dust over the Irish Sea before hundreds of onlookers. Four minutes later the final pair of cooling towers crumbled to the ground in a series of controlled explosions.

The demolition of the towers is the first phase in the decommissioning of the 167,000 square metre site made up of 62 buildings.

Harry Potter star wants to play gay spy
Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is hoping to play a gay spy. He wants to audition for the part in the remake of the movie Another Country, reports IANS from London.

Dailysnack.com reports that Radcliffe said: “I’d never play a gay character just for the sake of playing a gay character. But if the script was good and it was a good character, it wouldn’t bother me. Playing characters exploring their sexuality is a challenge. I’m 18 so the parts I’m going to be given will be for that age range — when people are doing just that”.
