Dean Cain at the Western Wall

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

American actor Dean Cain, known for his role as Superman in the hit 1990s TV show "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman," visited the Western Wall on Wednesday as part of a trip to Israel.

The actor wore a Superman kippah at the holy site, making for a perfect photo-op.

"Israel is all I've imagined and more! Such a beautiful country, wonderful people and vibrant democracy," Cain told the British Jewish News.

"I've not yet had a chance to see all the country and deeply look forward to the rest of my time here, and I'm sure I'll be back again soon.

"For me, the most moving is being able to share this visit with my son Christopher, to walk the streets that kings and prophets walked, share this history with him as well as show him how much a country can build and succeed in just 70 years," he said.

Cain's visit was organized by From the Depths, an organization dedicated to Holocaust remembrance and education.

On Tuesday, Cain met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at his office in Jerusalem. Netanyahu uploaded a video to his Facebook page joking that Cain should have come earlier.

"Superman visited my office this evening. Bad timing though. We solved everything right before he arrived," Netanyahu wrote.

In the video, Netanyahu is seen greeting Cain and telling him: "Superman, we have already solved everything; now you're coming?" to which Cain responds, "You are the real Superman ... well done, sir."
