HELEN SLATER: Pressure of Supergirl, Christopher Reeve Training, Mythology & Smallville Memories

Helen Slater (Supergirl, The Legend of Billie Jean) joins us this week to talk about her experience being thrust into the iconic role of Supergirl at 18 years old and the many different pressures and difficulties that came along with it. Helen was so open this week - she gets candid about her desire to act and the deep fulfillment that she receives in studying mythology. We also talk about her deep bond with Helen Hunt, the hurdle she had to cross to get her parents’ acceptance for acting, and memories of iconic scenes while appearing in Smallville.
