Nicolas Cage was one the
many actors that rumors were flying about would be the new
Superman. At this point it looks like little-known actor
Brandon Routh will be the new Man of Steel. Cage was actually
the first to be chosen for the film and was actually paid, but
it Warner Brothers pulled the plug before shooting could
begin.

Comic book fan Nicolas Cage has named his new
born baby Kal-El which of course is the Kryptonian name of Superman.
Cage is no stranger to Superman or comics. He was scheduled to play
in Tim Burton's Superman movie before it was scrapped. He will be
starring as comic book hero Ghost Rider next year, and his last name
Cage was inspired by Marvel Comics Black super hero Luke Cage aka
Power Man.
Quote from Nicolas Cage on the Superman
movie that never was- "I`ve
tried to make movies that make a difference. I think CITY OF ANGELS
is one of them. If you really want to make a difference, if you
really want to do something positive for the world, then you`ve got
to start with an impressionable age. I`ve never really made a movie
for children before, but to me, Superman is an opportunity to reach
children all around the world, and to say something to them that I
believe. I guess I`m trying to take the judgment out of the way kids
treat each other. To me, this project is very important because it`s
going to affect children around the world. What do I want to see
happen to children around the world? I can`t claim that I`m really
going to be able to do this, but at least I can try. Which is if I
can play up to Superman`s feelings of being an alien, feeling
different, feeling weird—basically feeling like the kid I felt
like when I was in school—then I can maybe get that little boy to
stop teasing that little boy because Superman is different. That`s my
thought process. Maybe that`s a little too weighty, but at least
it`s positive." For
