Never-before-seen photos of Nicolas Cage as Man of Steel from 'Superman Lives'

A pair of behind-the-scenes photos from Tim Burton’s long-defunct Superman Lives movie, starring Nicolas Cage, recently popped up on the DC Movie Page which give us our clearest look yet at the suit we would have seen on the big screen. In fact, we don’t think it looks that bad for an early '90s superhero costume!

As the story goes, Tim Burton was the man originally tapped to direct the proposed film, Superman Lives, which was loosely based on “The Death of Superman” storyline from the comics and would have starred Nicolas Cage as the Man of Steel.
