Back in the day, Tim Burton was to direct a Superman film unlike any other before or since. Kevin Smith (among others) was scripting it, and NICOLAS CAGE was chosen to portray the Man of Steel.

Then just before production began, it all went to hell. THE DEATH OF “SUPERMAN LIVES”: WHAT HAPPENED? is packed with detail about the failed production, including interviews with the film’s crew, special effects tests, concept art, and of course, Nic Cage’s costume tests.

Screening at Saturday, April 2 at 1:30 p.m. at Cinema Detroit
