The Superman that never was

The Superman Trifecta That Never Was:  Nick Cage, Tim Burton, & Kevin Smith!

By: Mick  Jan. 25, 2013

Back in the late 1990's Tim Burton was suppose to direct a Superman movie written by Kevin Smith and starring Nicholas Cage.  For some reason this never came to fruition, and sadly so.  I know it sounds like a glorious train wreck for a superhero franchise.  But, that's the beauty of this trio of Hollywood insanity.  Burton is weird.  Smith is a cult classic master (however, there is some serious tension between Burton and Smith).  And Cage is, well, Cage - insane.

Fortunately we may get a chance to find out more about the Superman that never was thanks to director of Metalocalypse, Jon Schnepp.  Check out his Kickstarter campaign.
