„Superman -Regisseur Richard Donner mit 91 Jahren gestorben | Tiroler Tageszeitung Online – Nachrichten von jetzt!

Donner nahm sich schließlich den Rat von Regisseur Martin Ritt zu Herzen. Er gab die Schauspielerei auf und wurde Ritts Regieassistent. Sein Handwerk lernte er zunächst hinter der Fernsehkamera. In den 1960er- und 1970er-Jahren drehte er Episoden von Hit-Serien wie „The Twilight Zone“, „Cannon“, „Kojak“ und „Die Straßen von San Francisco“. Dann stieß er auf das Drehbuch für einen Okkult-Horror-Film und brachte „Das Omen“ (1976) auf die große Leinwand. Für die gruselige Geschichte um den Sohn des Teufels, der als kleiner Bub in einer Diplomatenfamilie aufwächst, konnte er Gregory Peck und Lee Remick in den Hauptrollen gewinnen. Der Schocker war ein Kassenschlager, Donner wurde quasi über Nacht in Hollywood berühmt.
