SUPERMAN: The Red Sun

"When Lex Luthor (Anthony Hopkins) attempts to clone and replace Superman (Nathan Fillion) he accidentally creates the freakish doppelganger Bizarro (Sylvester Stallone). Raising the abomination as his own Luthor instills an indelible hatred towards the Man of Steel and pits the two in a deadly match of strength. After a battle spanning days, Superman defeats Bizarro in a near stalemate.

Luthor, not willing to accept defeat, forms a plan when he realizes Bizarro's major difference from his costumed nemesis, Bizarro's powers do not rely on the sun's energy. Together with Bizarro he places a thick cloud of red refractive space dust across the atmosphere forming a red spectrum dulling Superman's strength.

Now, with his powers stripped Superman must overcome his fiercest nemesis with the brawn of Superman and the genius of Luthor!"

184 minutes. Rated PG-13 for some violence and mild language.


I heard Nathan Fillion had to endure 4 hours of make-up and prosthetic attachments each day and pack on 80 pounds of neck muscle while Sylvester Stallone had to...show up.
