artemuscain-gamingandbs:sighinastorm:talesfromweirdland:Concept art—and costume tests—for Tim Burton’s never-produced Superman Lives. 1998.Nic Cage as Superman. I remember hearing about this at University and thinking, “That’s a bogus story. That’s a bogus story if ever I’ve heard one.” I had heard stuff like that before, like during pre-production of Batman Returns: Robert De Niro was going to play Two-Face, Robin Williams was going to play The Riddler. And Madonna—she had already been cast as Catwoman. There were always fanciful rumors like that floating around, I laughed it away.But it was true of course. It was all true.If you haven’t seen the documentary on it, you’re missing out. It wasn’t what we feared. It was that, and more.Also Jodorowsky’s DUNE.I like in the long hair picture it’s clearly just red underwear around the junk,The superpackage was the subject of several very long discussions and costume prosthesis tests. I think a Nic Cage Superman could have gotten away with a red loincloth! -- source link
