Shownotes
Few canceled superhero films have captured the imagination quite like Superman Lives.
Before production could begin, Tim Burton's Superman film starring Nicolas Cage was canceled—but not before Dan Gilroy's final screenplay, dated September 20, 1998, was submitted to Warner Bros. This is the closest surviving version of the movie that almost made it to theaters.
This full-cast audiobook faithfully adapts that final draft, bringing one of Hollywood's greatest lost films to life through cinematic performances, original music, and immersive storytelling.
As Superman searches for the truth about his Kryptonian origins, the arrival of Brainiac shatters everything he thought he knew. With Lex Luthor caught in the middle, Doomsday unleashed, and Earth hanging in the balance, Clark Kent must face his greatest battle—not only for the world, but for his own identity. Mysterious, emotional, and unlike any Superman film ever made, this is the story audiences never got to see.
If you've ever wondered what Tim Burton's Superman might have actually felt like, this is our closest attempt to let you experience it.
