Here's a test photo of Cage from Tim Burton's ill-fated Superman. He looks like he was in some bad metal band during the 80s.

 
Look at Cage's eyes. He looks doped up. You reckon they just pumped him full of drugs and slapped the suit on him for a laugh? I cant see any other way he'd have willingly put that thing on. haha
 
Oh, what could have been! That would have been absolutely epic.

Always glad to have an excuse to post this--just imagine him as Superman!

:horror

Finally! This photo is something of a Holy Grail for me. I kept a close eye on this project back in the day and it's always amazed me that no actual photos of Cage in the suit ever saw the light of day. We've seen production art, even a picture of a maquette in Jon Peter's home, but nothing like this...

The good news is, it doesn't disappoint. It's just as awful as I thought it'd be. More so, even.

Thanks!

...I think... :lol

WTF that movie looks so damn weird. and the way hes screaming "my EYESSS my eyes aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" i was like, is this for real? looks like a comedy.
 
Not entirely sure why but I can't stand this guy :lol

I feel the same way. He was at his best when he was playing quirky roles in Cohen bros/David Lynch movies. I haven't really liked him in anything since Wild At Heart.

There is no way that can be real. Who in the hell would put on that costume and look that terrible on purpose?
