See Nicolas Cage Wearing The Final SUPERMAN Costume for 'Superman Lives'; He Actually Looks Good?

We've all seen Nic Cage as Superman in Tim Burton's cancelled 'Superman Lives', but these new pics show Cage wearing the final costume and actually...kind of look decent? Discuss!

Tim Burton's failed 'Superman Lives' is a gift that keeps on giving. Say all you want, but we can't know for sure how crazy it would actually have been or the impact that it would have on the superhero movie subgenre (although it's safe to say that it wouldn't help at all), but so far we have only seen prototype suits being tested with Nic Cage in them. But earlier today the good folks responsible for the documentary 'The Death Of Superman Lives: What Happened?' tweeted this whole new look at the final costume for the movie. 



And others with a haircut.


 
 
Sure, still looks nothing like Clark Kent and we have outgrown rubber suits Joel Schumacher-style ages ago, but for the 90's it wasn't that bad. I actually expected much worse. Don't forget to leave your thoughts on the comment section below!

I like it. It's important to remember that this was still a work in progress, but for its time period, it looks good.

This looks like it would've been in the same universe as Batman and Robin... imagine that crossover

The costume itself is fine, but Cage being in it... whole other story.

Kyle Chandler would've made a decent Superman back then.

I like Superman.
I like Nic Cage.
I DO NOT like Cage as Superman.

That suit would be good for a costume party only.

I've seen the Documentary, it was interesting to see how f ucking batshit crazy everyone was, and how they all thought it was going to be brilliant. Jon Peters in particular is a special kind of delusional. It would have been shit, we missed out on nothing.
