The Superman franchise is currently one that’s going through a revision. Perhaps while they’re in the planning stages, they could give YouTube user “kashchei2003” a call. This Superman fan made his own short films from existing movie clips to tell a boss “what-if” story: What if “Superman Returns” was less about Lex Luthor and more about Doomsday?

It was intended to be a small, flashy [two] minute trailer for a ‘Man of Steel’, ‘Superman Returns’ sequel, but during the creative process, it became more so I don’t consider it a typical ‘trailer’,” kashchei2003 wrote in the YouTube description for “Superman: Doomsday (MAN OF STEEL fan sequel)-The Death of Superman (1 of 3)”. “This fan-edited short film, comprised of clips from existing movies, is just my opinion/idea for what a Superman Returns sequel could have looked like. Let’s see Superman face a real threat… Doomsday!”

The next part of his three-part series also includes the actual funeral of Superman. Not only do we see Batman, but we also get to see Wonder Woman as well!
