Publisher's Synopsis
Back in time to 1998 when Tim Burton was in talks and fully involved during pre-production to direct the major new Superman film, Superman Lives! Nicolas Cage would be Clark Kent and the costume screen tests is amazing footage, particularly seeing how great Tim and Nic would have collaborated. Featuring interviews from spectacularly gifted artists who provided the concept art, producer Jon Peters with his strange approach and early drafts of the screenplay by none other than the mighty Kevin Smith, not only is it a really enjoyable watch but really captivating and I personally think it's such a shame it was a failed project. The concept art looks incredible and to see that on screen would've been something else. Maybe it'll rise to studios interest again in the future.... the documentary itself is essential viewing though and although I would've liked to know more details about the films story which is barely referenced to, it's still really well edited and clearly made with a passion for its subject
