New footage of Nicolas Cage as Superman for ''Superman Lives''
We've got an exclusive look at the "holy grail" of superhero footage from the development of the Tim Burton Superman movie that never was. Titled "Superman Lives," the late 1990s project may be dead, but the Burton Superman shall live on forever in our hearts and minds in this video of Nic Cage doing stretches in his tight, shiny Superman suit.

If this is the version of Superman we got instead of Superman Returns, I probably would have been okay with that. To say the least, it would have been interesting even if it was terrible.
Imagine how it could have effected the current superhero trend. Could have either really screwed it up or help really take flight even faster.
I agree, this would of been okay with me if it was made in that time. But if it was made now I would be a very sad Superman fan.
Even if Superman Lives would've been an awful movie, it would've been so much fun. Nic Cage is a strange, sometimes method, sometimes passionate, actor that makes every character he is an extension of himself. He loves Superman, naming his son Kal-El even, so it would've been so, so interesting to seem him be that role.
You can see how involved Nic was with this project, and probably is with every project.
I wonder now what this movie could have been.
Due to Reddit's one true God subreddit, I thought this was a joke. I was expecting some sort of photoshopped image instead of a real video.
Honestly everything I've heard about what the plot of this movie would have been sounds good. Bran is and doomsday, that had all the makings of something potentially fantastic.
