Billy Campbell talks about the 'sweet spirit' of TheRocketeer and the only reason why Disney should do a reboot.

While Disney is eager to develop The Return of the Rocketeer, a revival of 1990s cult classic The Rocketeer, original lead star Billy Campbell doesn’t know precisely why a sequel would come after more than three decades. During an exclusive interview with Collider’s Maggie Lovitt for Star Trek: Prodigy, where Campbell is reprising his role as Okana, the first Rocketeer discussed the upcoming reboot, while revealing that he doesn’t see the character as a superhero.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY “I don't know, to be honest. I think why the movie should come back is that it was... I mean, of course, it wasn't the first superhero movie. And it's not a superhero movie, it's a regular guy movie. Except people keep telling me, ‘What's it like to be a superhero?’ But he's not really. He doesn't exist in a superhero universe either. Superman's not going to come flying around in the Rocketeer universe. So I don't know exactly.
