Brandon RouthVerified account @BrandonJRouth 5 hours ago I had the honor of meeting #MargotKidder & speaking with her about her Superman experience. She is my #LoisLane, just as #ChristopherReeve is my Superman. I’m grateful for the inspiring energy she brought to Lois & for her advocacy for #MentalHealthIsssues. #ThankYouMargot Keep Calm & Listen To Prince | |
