While it had been made clear that he was by no means fired, it was still disheartening news. The praise that Henry Cavill gets for his portrayal of Superman and the support from the fans was a huge reason for the audience to disapprove of James Gunn’s decision of letting go of the actor.
Gunn is now not only in charge of the new movie, but he is also working on bringing a version of the character that would satisfy almost every fan.Īlso Read: ‘WB used Henry Cavill just to make sure Black Adam would perform’: Internet Renews Accusations Dwayne Johnson, James Gunn Used Cavill’s Superman Cameo To Sell an Unsellable Movie Henry Cavill Was Not Destined To Return As Superman Even if there were to exist two versions of Superman like there were of Batman, it wouldn’t make sense to rehire Cavill and mark his return to be a grand comeback. Although it is not an origin story, the actor was just not what the DCU had been looking for in their hero. Superman: Legacy is said to follow a much younger version of the hero than Cavill. Despite the effort put in by Dwayne Johnson, it seemed as if the plan was already made about Cavill’s involvement in the franchise. That could mean that Henry Cavill‘s chances of returning as Superman were already slim, even before he did the cameo. Gunn confirmed that he was working on the movie over six months ago.
James Gunn revealed that even before he took over the DCU, the director had already been hired to work on Superman: Legacy. The movie that is now set to kick off the first chapter of the franchise was initially a separate film from the setup storyline.
