World Recasting Canceled Superman Movies

[Man of Steel]

We all know some Superman movies have been canceled. Most of those movies have had the main character cast already. They are:
Superman V-Christopher Reeve
Superman:The New Movie-Gerard Christopher
Superman Lives-Nicholas Cage
Your job is to cast new actors for these movie that look and sound like the originals and can act. My picks are:
Superman V-Brandon Routh
Superman: The New Movie-Matt Bomer
Superman Lives-Christian Bale

Of all of the aborted Superman movies, I liked Kevin Smith's the best (for the most part...Peters really ****ed up the script with his "demands.") so I'd want to revisit that one.

Assuming we're going with current actors, I think that Routh would work in that film as it was a young, modern Superman free of the characteristics of Reeve's portrayal. I think Routh could've made a great Superman had he been given the chance to be himself and not the Donnerverse Superman.

Could someone explain what the aborted movies were going to be about?
