Apparently this is (was. The film got axed) real shit…Nic Cage as Tim Burton’s Superman.
From Wikipedia:
“Robert Rodriguez was offered the chance to direct, but turned down the offer due to his commitment on The Faculty despite liking (Kevin) Smith’s script. Smith originally suggested Tim Burton to direct his script, and Burton signed on with a pay or play contract of $5 million and the studio set the theatrical release date in the summer of 1998, the 60th anniversary of the character’s debut in Action Comics. Nicolas Cage, a comic book fan, signed on as Superman with a $20 million pay or play contract, feeling he could “re-conceive the character.” Peters felt Cage could “convince audiences he [Superman] came from outer space.” Burton stated it would be “the first time you would believe that nobody could recognize Clark Kent as Superman, he [Cage] could physically change his persona.” Kevin Spacey was approached for the role of Lex Luthor while Tim Allen claimed he was in talks for Brainiac (a role heavily considered for Jim Carey). Courtney Cox was reported as a casting possibility for Lois Lane while Smith confirmed Chris Rock was set for Jimmy Olsen. Michael Keaton confirmed his involvement, but when asked if he would be reprising his role as Batman(as he had done in Burton’s Batman and Batman Returns), he would only reply, “Not Exactly.” Industrial Lights and Magic was set for work on special effects.”
