Inevitable

in response to the inevitable movie-themed questions =?
I could not understand why "movie-themed questions" are inevitable.



Context:
Walking by 50 had only ever been a hope, not a prediction, Reeve insisted. But what made the news of his death so acutely disorienting was the fact that, on some level, so many of us thought that, eventually - albeit a few years behind schedule - he might actually do it. Of course, he had always stressed that ordinary disabled people were the real superheroes in response to the inevitable movie-themed questions. But for the rest of us, the personal narrative was too seductive to resist: Superman, brought down to earth, ultimately triumphs again through sheer force of will.

'Inevitable' because he was the movie actor who played 'Superman'-- so he would inevitably be asked questions relating that character to his present disability and his prospects for recovery.
