Behold the Superman!
This movie poster was abandoned because the marketing team thought it was "too artsy" (plus the "Returns" bit looks like it was just pasted on there).
P.S.
Let's see them try and push that Superman-as-Jesus angle now. You know superhero comics sure are getting pretty dark these days when you see Superman deal with domestic violence in a two-part story. "Superman loves you, baby, but you know when I'm drunk you should just get the fuck out of the way."
Click on the picture if you want to see the full-sized look of murderous rage on Superman's face. "Whar's ma dinner, Lois?!"

From Something Awful:
Bryan Singer plans on releasing a sequel to the blandly-received "Superman Returns," entitled "Superman Keeps On Returning Even After Numerous Restraining Orders," focusing more on the character's emotional and mental turmoil. "I think the biggest problem the audience had with Superman was that, simply put, he was too super," claimed Singer. "The next movie will feature even more 'common man' elements such as more creeping around in Lois Lane's bushes while using his x-ray vision to spy inside her house, extended sequences depicting Superman repeatedly calling Lois' cell phone and then hanging up before she can answer, and a very tortured shot of Lois deleting text messages from 'suprmn393' reading 'U NO U WANT ME BABY, DONT PISS OF SUPPERMAN U BITCH WHORE'." Word around town is the Man of Steel's next villain will be none other than Bizarro, whose personality will be socially well adjusted and not at all like a Lifetime Movie Network antagonist.
