John Hamilton(1887-1958)

Upon Hamilton's death in 1958, Whitney Ellsworth, producer of Las aventuras de Superman (1952), considered giving the role of Daily Planet Editor Perry White to Pierre Watkin, who had played White in two Columbia serials, Superman (1948) and Atom Man vs. Superman (1950). However, the problem became moot when the series was abruptly canceled after the death of star George Reeves in 1959.
