    • Alexander Salkind is the legendary film producer. His father, Michael Salkind, was also a well-known, successful film producer. Also known as Alex Salkind, he was the father of Ilya Salkind. They were partners for decades, teaming up on the hits The Three Musketeers (1973) and The Four Musketeers (1974), and taking credit for producing the first "comic book movie" with the blockbuster Superman (1978), which they followed with Superman II (1980) and Superman III (1983).
