Petition Seeks to Have Superman Receive a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
Posted on September 18, 2024 by Neil Cole
Following the recent announcement that Batman will be the first ever superhero character to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, a new petition has been created by fellow Superman fan Steven Kirk seeking the same honor to be bestowed on the Man of Steel.
Since 1938, Superman has been a worldwide symbol of hope, truth, and justice. He was the original Super Hero.
To commemorate this heroic character's almost 90 years of being a huge part of the world's pop culture zeitgeist, we're leading the charge to get Superman a much-deserved star on the venerable Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Superman has been featured in comic books, radio, movies, television, video games, on Broadway, dozens of songs, hundreds of t-shirts, thousands of toys, and so much more. His iconic \S/ logo is a symbol recognized around the world.
Out of over 2,700 stars, less than 20 fictional characters have ever been honored with a terrazzo star on Hollywood Boulevard. Ranging from Mickey Mouse to The Simpsons, Big Bird to Godzilla, Bugs Bunny to Pee-wee Herman, and, most recently, Superman's fellow Warner Bros. alum, and crime-fighting partner, Batman.
In 2025, The Man of Steel returns to theaters in a new film by writer/director, James Gunn. For Superman's nomination to be accepted by the Walk of Fame committee, a letter of agreement must be submitted by the nominee’s management, along with the nomination form. That management would be DC Comics, and most likely, Mr. Gunn, himself.
We believe that because of Superman's heroic exploits and the stalwart example he has set for kids and adults over the decades, the Man of Steel should be honored and celebrated with his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Heroes! Please join fans from all over the world and sign this petition at Change.org to help Superman receive this long-overdue recognition.
