James Gunn Reveals How Henry Cavill Reacted To Superman Re-Casting
Starting with “Man of Steel” in 2013, Henry Cavill commenced his tenure as Superman, an interpretation that garnered appreciation from many despite criticisms leveled at the subsequent DCEU films. The British actor’s portrayal of Superman, often dubbed the Big Blue Boy Scout, was generally well-received by superhero movie enthusiasts, who found issues more with the writing for the character in “Man of Steel,” “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice,” and “Justice League” rather than Cavill’s acting abilities. Admirers of Cavill’s Superman were eager to catch him in a post-credits scene for “Black Adam,” leading many to believe that he would continue as the Man of Steel for some time. Regrettably, it seems this was never the case, despite ongoing uncertainties regarding the future of DC’s cinematic universe.
