This late 1990's project was to be directed by Tim Burton and star Nicholas Cage as Superman (GULP!)

He took Cage as a screen name from the comics character Luke Cage. He was also offered the role of Norman Osborn/Green Goblin in Spiderman but couldn't do it.
Anyhow, here is more info on that film & the casting - evidence that there are worse things than a run of the mill remake
Original treatment: Kevin Smith
Superman: Nicolas Cage
Lois Lane: Linda Fiorentino
Jimmy Olsen: Chris Rock
Brainiac: Tim Allen
Luthor: Jack Nicholson
Eradicator: David Hyde Pierce
L-Ron (voice): Dwight Ewell
How he does that with a black uniform, I dunno
Brainiac blocks the sun, ...
