Even if you want to do something a bit different than the classic red, blue, and yellow, Cage is still your guy, though someone could probably find a better picture to represent their case. Even still, DC and WB are being called out hard!

prevnextIn The Market
Seems there's an opening in the Superman market, a role that hasn't been available since 2011, with Cavill's debut hitting in 2013's Man of Steel. Seems Cage has another shot, so why not take it?

prevnextTime For Cage
There's a void in the DC cinematic universe now, and only one man can save the day and somehow track down the original declaration of independence...and it's Nicolas Cage.

"And I'm not joking in that recasting Nicolas Cage as Superman and pretending he's still the Henry Cavill DCEU Superman would be a gold mine. RT if you would spend money to see this."
prevnextBlowing Up My Cell
Thankfully voicemails don't use up any data, because Cage probably has a ton to sift through after the news of Cavill's exit made its way online.
According to @THR, Henry Cavill will no longer play Superman in the DC universe. Somewhere, a cell phone has 20 missed calls and six voicemails from Nicolas Cage.

prevnextThe Campaign Begins
Roles like Superman don't come along all too often, so if any casting were to warrant a campaign or petition it would be his. Guess the clock on that starts now.

prevnextTesting The Suit
Half the fun of a trend like this is just seeing all the GIFs fans use to illustrate their point, and there are plenty to choose from when it comes to Tim Burton and Nicolas Cage's storied Superman film. That includes this gem that shows Cage in an early prototype of the suit.

prevnextA Second Chance
Most are rather bummed that Cavill will no longer be rocking Superman's cape in future movies, but some are approaching this as an opportunity, one that could allow fans to finally see that Tim Burton Superman Lives project hit the big screen.

Cage's love of Superman is well-known, so it makes sense that there are a number of fans who would love to see him finally get the opportunity to bring the character to life on the big screen. Do you agree?

prevnextThe Superman We Deserve
While there are many who enjoyed Cavill's take on the character, we can't help but wonder what Nicolas Cage's Superman movie would have felt like. Some fans feel it is the Superman we deserve, and while we aren't sure if we can go that far we would love to actually see it.
