Trailer, Images, Poster & Screenings For THE DEATH OF ‘’SUPERMAN LIVES’’; WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?

Movie fans of a certain age will remember the failed attempt by Tim Burton to make a Superman movie starring Nicolas Cage as the Man of Steel in the late 1990s. Superman Lives would have been a ground-breaking superhero movie in many ways – in particular the off-beat way which Burton would have tackled the iconic mythology of Superman.

Kevin Smith wrote the film’s original script, while Wesley Strick and Dan Gilroy had input into the screenplay. The Jon Peters produced film was weeks away from shooting when Warner Bros pulled the plug on the production. There were many reasons for this – and you can now learn about them all in Jon Schnepp’s documentary, The Death of “Superman Lives”; What Happened?.

Check out the below trailer and tell me you don’t want to see this film.

The Death of “Superman Lives”; What Happened? screens at MCM Comic Con at ExCel London on 22 and 23 May. It hits VOD from 9 July.
