Nicolas Cage opened up about his cameo appearance in The Flash, saying what appeared on screen was not what he shot in the studio.
The Big Picture While The Flash may have not been the juggernaut that Warner Bros. Discovery and DC Studios were hoping for, a brief section during which the film had fans everywhere cheering. In what's been a decades-coming appearance, Nicolas Cage finally tossed on the suit and cape as Superman, a role that was unfairly ripped away from him at the tail end of the ‘90s.
What I was supposed to do was literally just be standing in an alternate dimension, if you will, and witnessing the destruction of the universe. Kal-El was bearing witness the end of a universe, and you can imagine with that short amount of time that I had, what that would mean in terms of what I can convey. I had no dialogue convey with my eyes the emotion. So that’s what I did.
Nicolas Cage and the Scrapped Superman Lives Close By all appearances, Superman Lives sounds like it would’ve been a money-making hit for Warner Bros. With Kevin Smith attached to write the script and Burton signed on as director, the film had all the makings of a modern classic superhero tale. But, after two years of planning and multiple changes, the project was scrapped by the studio who were worried that they were dropping too much money on a mythos that wouldn’t take to the sky.
