A new report claims that Warner Bros. recently reached out to Henry Cavill to return as the DCEU's Superman. The actor kicked off DC's own interconnected superhero franchise in 2013 with Man of Steel from director Zack Snyder. Almost a decade since, a lot has already happened in the franchise, with Warner Bros. Discovery now implementing another shift in strategy when it comes to handling their DCEU movies.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Related: WB's Batgirl Cancelation Makes Superman's DCEU Return Certain, Right? What have you heard about Henry lately, I've heard a story that they've asked him, and he doesn't want to do it, he doesn't want to come back.
🥱
Oh trust me he comin back, no1 can replace this Man! It’s just bcuz there so much hype around him right now. He isn’t about clout & media! He’s a legitimate business man and that’s the best part. Much respect Cavill! My Mf Superman!!! All about timing right now. HeComin 🦸♂️
The Cavill Superman ship has sailed. WB dropped the ball. But they’ll probably offer him a kazillion dollars next.
Nice joke
Given how they treated him, I honestly wouldn’t blame him… if this were true, which I sincere doubt.
Well yeah because over the course of a decade and five films he barely got the chance to play Superman. Dude got screwed over by directors and producers who were woefully unsuited to the project.
This site is so trash. THIS ISN'T NEWS.
He come only when jack back
Why would he be? Leave the sinking ship that is DC and focus on Witcher
🦇🃏🏴as we say in Scotland your talking shite in ever interview including a recent one with Lorraine Kelly Henry said the suit still fits and I’m ready for the call
And they said SnyderVerse will never be restored😭🤯
:(
Come on you SOB
lets bring in tom welling and do a big screen superman movie for him
Buzz, buzz, buzz...Bla Bla Bla...Rumors, not facts.
DC has no idea what it's doing.
therealsupes
That hurts...
I don't blame him, he's been through a lot with that character
Il a bien raison
That sucks if true, but 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽. He should definitely look the other way, after how they've been acting towards him.
Don't spreading fake news article like last time Cavill never said ' he wasn't interested' HenryCavill HenryCavillSuperman
Can anyone honestly say they are shocked at this point? Why would anyone want to work for then at the moment when they cancel projects whenever they please. You don't even feel safe saying 'it's filmed now so it will be released'
Fake news, delete it if you have any credibility left
We have to stop using this picture
And now people will blame wb. Even Walter Hamada is leaving wb after Black Adam. Wtf is problem here? Affleck is returning then why isn't Cavill?
Why would he? WB seems to just make movies and then not release them. They can probably get someone else to play Supes in their tax-purpose flick.
And this the problem with “Rumour’s” not true, In numerous interviews he has said he would be.
I wouldn't want to work for Zaslav anyways cause no contract could be trusted that a movie won't be canceled. If He's Superman he can't find time to do his hit Witcher series or his dream is to be cast as James Bond.
Good for him ☺️
Bullshit, Henry Cavill is still interested about returning as Superman, look at him interviews!
If true, bring back BrandonJRouth No auditions, no reads, get him back!
Feeling like at this point a lot of these rumors are less than rumors and many a time false. Just like needless Twitter rile-up bait.
Good for him!

stop the lies!!! HenryCavill said 'I hope to do more superman in the years to come'
X to doubt. He really wants to come back as superman he has said it so many times
I wouldn’t wanna do a movie with WarnerBros with all the controversy and then all the cancelling of projects recently. Plus I’d be scared of Ezra Miller coming out of no where
We’ll see
No, he has said time and time again he wants to do another Superman movie.
Oh he’s going to marvel
Why?
That’s big. Actually hilarious if true
Probably because he is getting tried of playing the role and expecting long term and then immediately being dropped
Do for the fans, Henryyyyyyyyyyyy
Snyderfans (including myself):
He wants more money, creative control, a Director of his choosing… no one will give him that. Let’s just move on… next!!! Oh and Zaslav, please get it right this time around!!!
The operative word here is...RUMOR. Period. End of story.
Good. Don’t drag him back into that hell hole.
Cause he's to busy doing The Witcher. Duh
As much as i want him back... good for him.
Welp Highlander is saved niklander2
❤️
He said the cape is in the closet and ready…but the old regime didn’t want him or Affleck…now they are gone and it seems the new guard want him back…I think he wants back but also be wanted back as well
Maybe timing. He’s got Witcher S3 atm and I think another Netflix Sherlock Holmes sister season on the books
soldier_thunder
it's almost like he's got a better series that's he far more invested in instead of dealing with DC and it's current dumpster fire
His one and only target now should be:
Good ass move on him
Source ; trust me bro
🧢🧢
Any chance they only want him back for a cameo but he's not interested unless it's a full-on feature film
I wonder why
SwapneelB7
A rumor by who? Who says this shit? Sources please
Begimana gk cape udh berkali2 di php in
is this rumor from Grace Randolph?
He’s with Marvel now 💅
This you?
Can’t blame him.
Imagine he gets casted as Dr Doom
w
YESSIR. let the reboot commence
Source?
just reboot it god damn
Not surprised. It’s a shot show over there
W
That's it, no more cat and mouse chasing anymore, just cast him as somebody else, Superman is bigger than Cavil.
Hubby said yall fucking waiting to damn long to make a decision to reach out to me
Can't wait to see how the Snyder Cult twists this news around to be a sign that the Snyderverse is coming back.
I’ve given up on DC. I love Cavill as Superman but I don’t blame him for a second if that’s true. Absolutely incompetent managing of the whole thing. It’s so disappointing.
Where do you guys pull this out of your ass
Nobody with an once of sense believes you or this rumour
🧢
I’ll take the mantle
If true bummer. I would offer more money and more movies cause they ain't gonna find a better Superman.
As much as I love him as Superman….I would much rather see him in the MCU. I bet he is secretly wishing to jump the DC sinking ship and join the MCU as well.
Who's paying you to lie this time?
Henry WB
That sucks. As long as he is on the Witcher, all is not lost!
Don’t blame him. If Snyder made MoS 2, and it didn’t do 100% on every critic site, they’d blame WB anyhow. Toxic-ass work environment
Sad
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
😂
HenryCavillSuperman!!!
These sites will say anything to get the clicks. They particularly like rumors to trigger the Snyderverse fans whether the rumor indicates the Snyderverse will return or whether it suggests it won't.
100% going to marvel
NOOOO
🤔
Even actors don’t like WarnerBros these days
SparrowOnTheEye He got a better offer from marvel 🤣🤣🤣
Damn WB has fucked everything
If that is fully true because I have seen contradictory statements I wouldn’t blame him since they basically tossed him to the side and didn’t use him.
I mean fair enough Warnner Bros can't do shit, and when they do they cancel it
AngryJoeShow
Let's hope it stays a rumour.
🗣DO YOU BLAME HIM THO
You can't blame him after how they've treated him and the character.
I’m sure he wants to play Superman again, but I assume he just wants nothing to do with WB
GraceRandolph do you have any tea on this subject?
netflix throwing soo much money at them. if dc doesnt have their shit together. i wouldnt go anyway. cmon n be captain britain for the mcu 🤷🏾♂️
WB - *Calls Henry Cavill on No Caller ID, let’s it ring once, hangs up* Hmm… guess he’s not interested.
Too little to late
If he doesn’t come back as Superman than I don’t care about Superman any more
Not interested because of reasons. Until we know what that is, I’m staying hopeful. And if they recast, that’s fine too. As long as we get a Superman movie most people will love. I loved MoS.
Ah well that sucks
But he recently said he’s not giving up the role. What a disappointment… he definitely established a look like no one else ever did. His absence will be felt tremendously.
Sorry but false! They haven’t reached out to him for anything. Despite that people want to see him again as Superman. And have been vocal about it. But those at WB don’t care!
Ooooooooffff
lmaooo
u guys r why i stopped going to movie sites. Great job!
babyyydoctor_
Sounds fake to me after he went out of his way to indicate his ongoing interest in 2019. But who knows.
I wonder if this is from the same rumour camp as Cavill appearing at Comicon?
Better call Nicholas Cage
Too busy with The Midcher
What? Are you kidding me?! Cavill said he's always interested in returning as Superman!
Source: 'Trust me Bro'
According to who? You guys are a joke
This is a good thing. Even though I like Cavill, DC is resetting their universe and that should be made clear by changing the actors.
I don’t blame him after what they did to Batgirl 🤷♂️
Damn
Why is anyone surprised by this? Lol
Oh the WB fuckup, Mouse money and Feige love. I can almost smell Brian.
how can you say no to that upper lip ...
Bullshit RestoreTheSnyderVerse
Can you honestly blame the guy? They've treated him like absolute shit ever since MoS! I hope the rumours of jumping to Marvel are true!
Can’t blame him. I would love for him to play a different, actually good Superman though.
ChrisJKirk83
Yikes
thatstarwarsgrl KinelRyan DDayCobra Nerdrotics
Good
Good.
Sure, Jan.
Captain Britain don't play Superman....
Does the article say why he wasn't interested? If we're to believe in rumors, I mean.
Henry Cavil as Arthas Menethil please!
I honestly don't blame him
Remember what happened last time about a rumor
…a rumour Screen Rant started no doubt. You’re biased in your stories. You don’t want Cavill back so you use the bad cgi image and make up stories.
SCREEN RANT accepting their weekly bribes again.
tobe honest for what they have done to my man this is acceptable
There is no freaking way he wasn’t interested!!! 🤯
Over 5 years of will he, won't he. Aren't y'all ready to move on from this guy? He's not even a good Superman.
GOD. JUST LET THE MAN BE-
Nobody believes your rumor bullshit anymore. Esp Cavill related
Lies.
Wtf 🤣
🤣… smart man
For the love of Allah reboot
Delete this
Unless is with Zach I don’t blame him
Do you blame him? First treat him like sh , bring out every other character for a sequel movie except Superman. Now because the Batgirl movie was shelved, they probably have some kind of a script semi ready for MOS2, they are taking the easy way out
I can’t… 🤦🏾♂️
Dude picks Witcher over the DC crapfest.
Who can blame Henry Cavill? DC did nothing for years. Now with Zaslav, would any talent or creator have WBD on the top of their list?
Considering what he's said yes to in regard to playing Superman in the past I'm not sure I really trust his judgement either.
This says otherwise
wait a min.. wtf
Just ignore Screen Rant, they are using jossssstice league stills as click bait
NOOOOOOO
All put out by Hamada and Geoff John's to save face. Believe it when WB says it, not these hack sites
Personally im gutted...but I dont blame him the way he's been treated by WB
Wouldn’t be surprised after how they treated him
Well then people need to move then. He doesn't want the role anymore.
This is BS he always loved his Superman role and there are also rumours he's in Black Adam 😂
can you stop using Whedons bullshit screenshots?
Good decision
I'm good with DC dying right now just please stop posting Joss wheadons fucking superman pics!🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Said it few weeks ago....dude will be wearing a marvel hero costume long before he ever wears superman costume
Fake News 😂
They did say take this with a grain of salt so the rumor isn’t solid and neither is ERIK DAVIS WITH ALL DUE RESPECT
itsthatmovie I doubt Screen Rant’s sources 😂
No way, Henry said his cape is still in closet
NOOOO! Could've been the GOAT Superman with a good story
Not surprised 😆 Oh well, they can find another superman
Recast and stop waiting on Cavill
I think it's more that he's busy and WB don't wanna work around Henry's schedule. Stars aren't aligning but I hope that at some point they do. Loving him in The Witcher.
The way Cavill (and Affleck, and Gadot and Fisher) were all treated, who would blame him for not coming back. Especially with how WB/DC is still being run. It's going to take a lot of work on WB's part to prove otherwise.
We all know he’s coming back. This shit is is exhausting bro. Like seriously.
The snyder shills are gonna deny it lol🤣
Recast already then…
I don't believe it Henry Cavill wants to be Superman 💯
Screen Rant losing all credibility with one tweet 😂😂😂😂 atleast do some research before tweeting admin
Yup, WB donzo. Hello Captain Britain or Wolverine
OMFG, Henry! O M F G! Just recast him already!
If he doesn't someone else can do it
Based. If they want sequel to Josstice League.
Well, who would've want to come back if they have no clear plan for his character and waiting for a sequel for years.
Basically
Never believe in rumors
why would he be? they treated him like dirt. Anyway he'll be the next JamesBond.
Are you all happy you 'Fans' did this.
Y’all love lying on the internet where did this even come from
Rumors are rumors and yours are less and less credible!
Henry wants some input on the films. That's the major stumbling block as he doesn't want to star in a bad Superman movie.
Y’all just write anything these days. TF!!!
I don't belive this bullshit. They are lying all the time and now again
Rumors
So. you have a rumour for me 'YES Sir i do '
That’s complete BS. Cavill has said on MANY occasions he wants to be Superman long term. That is a fact.
StonedRabbits
“I still have the cape in my closet” Who is funding these “articles”?
You guys...🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Why you gotta use this picture though?
So ridiculous that Henry Cavill didn't get a MoS trilogy. Another character that WB will reboot 🙄 MoS was 2013 🐌 🥱
Lol. First. It’s funny how screen rant is using the joss whedon superman face. Second. Poor dc fans.
I don’t buy this rumor considering 8 months ago he was talking about what kind of Superman Sequel he would want his character to have. And I think the reason why Cavill is holding back is because it’s not continuing from Man Of Steel, it would be just a reboot with…
Ok but Why the hell used this pictures still
He might be playing game on his PC. So he didn't bother.
A) stop using Whedon derp face scenes B) didn’t you guys report he was at comic con a few weeks back and that was also a lie? C) Henry posts about being Superman all of the time…he’s definitely interested and your reporting is definitely bad
Good!
Good. Why would he want to return to the embarrassing shambles that is the DC cinematic universe? It's been mismanaged (both by WB executives and directors and writers) from the very start. Cavill was brilliant in the role, but they wasted his talent.
Henry Cavill:
Honestly, I really hope he goes to MarvelStudios soon.
I find that hard to believe that Henry would turn that down. BUT with the recent events at WB I'm sure a lot of actors and directors are going to steer clear. Shame as I want another Superman movie with cavill.
sylabdul_inc?
Good, saving his dignity. DC is run like shit
You can't treat a guy like that then u come begging... Kevin Feige liked this tweet ..lol
