Henry Cavill will not return as Superman

Henry Cavill is not Superman anymore : the actor just announced he won’t be back as the caped super hero.

Henry Cavill fans, forget about it. The Man of Steel will not return as Superman. The British actor has played the role for almost a decade, first appearing in Man of Steel in 2013.

It comes as a surprise since it was announced a few months ago that he would shoot a new Superman movie. but DC decided to go in another direction. “I have just had a meeting with James Gunn and Peter Safran and it’s sad news, everyone. I will, after all, not be returning as Superman”, said Cavill on Instagram.

“After Being told by the studio to announced my return back in October, prior to their hire, this news isn’t the easiest, but that’s life. The changing of the guard is something that happens.”

Open to James Bond ?

Cavill was again Superman this year, in surprise cameo in the end credits scene of Black Adam in October. Henri Cavill is in the list to play James Bond, though, maybe that has to do with decision from DC ?

DC Studios new boss, James Gunn, confirmed : “Peter & I have a DC slate ready to go, which we couldn’t be more over-the-moon about; we’ll be able to share some exciting information about our first projects at the beginning of the new year. Among those on the slate is Superman. In the initial stages, our story will be focusing on an earlier part of Superman’s life, so the character will not be played by Henry Cavill.”

Henri Cavill also recently abandoned his lead part in the Witcher, the Netflix series. All that lead to what ? Here is out bet, James Bond obviously…
