Encyclopedic overview

Everyone's Hero is a 2006 American animated sports comedy film directed by Christopher Reeve, Daniel St. Pierre and Colin Brady. Starring Jake T. Austin, Rob Reiner, William H. Macy, Raven-Symoné and Whoopi Goldberg, along with many others. The film was produced by IDT Entertainment in Toronto with portions outsourced to Reel FX Creative Studios and was distributed domestically by 20th Century Fox.

The film was theatrically released on September 15, 2006, to mixed reviews from critics and was a financial flop, earning $16.6 million on a $35 million budget. It also marked the final film for Dana Reeve before her death in March 2006, six months before the release of the film; it was dedicated to her and her husband, Christopher Reeve, who co-directed the film.
