It’s been back and forth in the entertainment news outlets about whether or not Henry Cavill will reprise the role of Superman in the DC Cinematic Universe. Cavill reportedly had a falling out with the studio behind the films, Warner Bros when he had to return to the set of ‘Justice League’ for reshoots which conflicted with his work on ‘Mission Impossible: Fallout’. Yeah, remember the weird CGI on his face to hide the mustache? Apparently he was not happy about that either, and since 2018 it seems he was no longer the big screen Superman but recently with director Zack Snyder getting to redo his ‘Justice League’ movie for HBO Max, Cavill has publicly stated his desire to play the character again.

Cavill cleared the air recently with Variety. 

“The amount of speculation, the stuff I read on the Internet, is extraordinary and sometimes frustrating,” Cavill said. “It’s when you see people stating stuff as fact. Like, ‘No, that’s not the case. That hasn’t happened, and that conversation isn’t happening.’”

“But the important thing is that people are excited about it, and I think it’s important to be excited about a character like Superman. Superman is a fantastic character. If people are chatting about it, and even if they’re making stuff up, it’s okay, because that means they want to see the character again. And in an ideal world, I would absolutely love to play the character again.”

So there is still hope he’ll dawn the red and blue a few more times, but it’s just confirmed or certain when that could happen.
