Ironically Brightburn is more like Irredeemable by Mark Waid than Superman, although Irredeemable is itself a Superman Elseworlds story.
Red Son is the "What if?" where Kal'el lands in rural Russia rather than Kansas but still deals with an adult Superman in an AU Earth.
Brightburn is a "What if?" where a similarly powered alien child lands in the US but is treated with fear and suspicion, however the character is only 12/13 or so in human years, so it's more about the differences in raising the alien child than how and where he tries to influence the world.
