Henry Cavill

Just weeks after announcing his return as Superman to the DC films, Henry Cavill has been kicked out of the Justice League once again.

. . A part of me wishes that this means he’ll be returning to The Witcher, but I fear that ship has sailed—and most likely because of creative differences between Cavill and the show’s producers. I wish them and all involved with the new universe the best of luck, and the happiest of fortunes. Now, Cavill will be neither Superman or the Witcher, which is a real shame given how good he was in both roles. The changing of the guard is something that happens. This makes his last appearance as the Man of Steel .

The pair [reportedly](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/wonder-woman-3-not-moving-forward-dc-movies-1235276804/) met to determine the future of Man of Steel 2, and it now appears it won't be going ahead. Cavill went on: "James and Peter have a universe to build.

The idea of Henry Cavill joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a dream to Marvel fans and after seeing the actor suit up as Cyclops we can see why.

Do you think Henry Cavill would make a good Cyclops in the MCU? Not only does he look the part, but Cavill could be the perfect actor to introduce Cyclops to a new generation and make the hero more respected than past iterations have been. In the incredible concept art, the artist transforms Cavill into Cyclops with a design that flawlessly captures the essence of the character’s most iconic costume from over the years. If not Cyclops or Captain Britain, which Marvel character would you like to see Cavill play within the MCU? Given the popularity of the franchise and its iconic characters, one can’t imagine Marvel will keep fans waiting too long before announcing its first X-Men project. Now more than ever, there are plenty of projects to look forward to as Marvel fans.

In the latest shakeup from Warner Bros., Henry Cavill will not reprise his role as Superman. James Gunn revealed he and Peter Safran are writing a new ...

But we just had a great meeting with Henry, and we’re big fans and we talked about a number of exciting possibilities to work together in the future,” Gunn promised. Cavill made his debut as Superman in 2013 in Zack Snyder’s “Man of Steel.” He reprised the role in 2016’s “Batman v. “Among those on the slate is Superman. [announce my return back in October](https://nypost.com/2022/10/25/henry-cavill-confirms-superman-future-in-dc-franchise/), prior to their hire, this news isn’t the easiest, but that’s life,” Cavill added. “The changing of the guard is something that happens. I wish them and all involved with the new universe the best of luck, and the happiest of fortunes.”

In an Instagram post, Cavill confirmed that "my time to wear the cape has passed" as Gunn prepares to pen a new story about the Man Of Steel's younger days.

Gunn noted that no director has yet been tapped to handle the film. The obvious question here is whether Gunn’s film will incorporate any of the material from the Snyder movie—including the memorable moment when Superman’s dad feeds himself to a tornado to teach his son a lesson about some damn thing—or whether Gunn and his team will be actively building a new version of the character. This is per Gunn’s own social media account, where he revealed that he’s been working on the script for the film for a while now, describing it as a movie “focusing on an earlier part of Superman’s life”—hence the lack of Cavill in the lead role.

James Gunn confirmó que el actor no entra en planes de la producción, pero hay una razón para ello.

Pese a haber confirmado su regreso hace algunas semanas, Henry Cavill no volverá a ser Superman. James Gunn quiere reestructurar DC.

El elegido no solo tendrá la presión que representa tan importante papel, sino también la de aquellos que hoy han mostrado su disgusto por la partida de Henry Cavill.

También para agradecer a los millones de fans que lo apoyaron mientras portó la capa del emblemático superhéroe: "Para aquellos que han estado a mi lado a lo largo de los años… A pesar de que la situación no tuvo un desenlace favorable para él, dijo respetar y comprender la decisión.

(CNN) -- Los fans de DC en todo el mundo lloraron colectivamente este miércoles cuando el actor británico Henry Cavill dijo que ya no se pondrá la capa roja ...

Desde su nombramiento, Gunn y Safran han estado reevaluando la lista de proyectos del estudio, con algunas decisiones que recientemente han llegado a los titulares. “Después de que el estudio me dijera que anunciara mi regreso en octubre, antes de su contratación, esta noticia no es la más fácil, pero así es la vida. “Entre los que están en la pizarra está Superman. “Mi turno de usar la capa ya pasó, pero lo que representa Superman nunca pasará.

James Gunn y Peter Safran están planeando el próximo film del personaje, cuyo guion será escrito por el propio Gunn.

De momento no han elegido a un director para el proyecto. Gunn se ha apresurado a señalar que tanto él como Safran son grandes fans de Henry Cavill y que han discutido un montón de emocionantes posibilidades con él de cara al futuro. Poco después de la despedida de Cavill, James Gunn tuiteaba que él y Safrán tienen un nuevo proyecto entre manos para DC y que no puede ser más ambicioso.

No sabremos hasta dentro de muchos años si la decisión de empezar de cero ha sido la mejor para Gunn y Safran, que están siendo muy abiertos en la manera que quieren crear su propio universo pero por el camino están enfadando a los fans, tanto del universo DC como de 'The Witcher', que han visto que su héroe se ha ido para nada.

The duo are overhauling the DC Universe, starting with a new Gunn-scripted Superman movie that will not star Cavill. Cavill played the part for three seasons, but he confirmed his exit from the series in October shortly after announcing his return as Superman in Warner Bros.’ DC Universe.

Henry Cavill compartió una noticia que causó conmoción en los fans de las películas de DC: ya no será más Superman.

James Gunn informó en Twitter que la franquicia seguirá adelante sin Cavill porque la nueva historia del héroe se centrará en una parte anterior de su vida. El miércoles, a través de un post en su Instagram, el actor de 39 años informó que no volverá a interpretar el papel del famoso superhéroe. Sin embargo, comentó que respeta la decisión de los ejecutivos de DC en no renovar su papel: “El cambio de guardia es algo que sucede (…) James y Peter tienen un universo para construir.
