    Henry imo was the perfect modern day Superman. Down to earth, good guy who has an amazing physique and looks. He was the perfect guy to play Superman. The casting was perfect.

    the fact that he makes a public apology, for something he had NO CONTROL over, should show much not only the role meant to him but doing the role justice for the fans meant to him. he wanted to do right for them. bless you henry, you'll always be supes in my heart.

    Cavill is such a class act. I feel so sorry for the way he has been treated.
  • @theinvade1197
    Wow, that sucks! He's truly a classic act. I hope another studio creates a great role for him. He deserves it.

    Out of all the actors playing Superman Henry was by far my favorite. I was so looking forward to another movie with him bearing the red cape. I mean he legit is Superman looks just like him, humble nice, stand up guy. Why they would decide to go a other route is beyond me. Terrible idea 😭

    Two things have become clear: 1) Henry Cavill is one of the most gracious people on the planet. Cannot imagine how hurtful this must be to him. 2) Both the studio and Gunn are tone deaf to their audience. That 'smooth it over' tweet from Gunn showed zero empathy for the feelings of the fans. What an epic fail. I look forward to seeing Henry's career take refreshing new turns, we have only begun to see the extent of his talent.
  • Henry's Superman is on the same level as Christopher's imho. Purely iconic.

    I am not a fan of DC but I was always a fan of his and his version of Superman. This makes me sad ❤!😢
  • @Han-rw9ev
    No Cavill? I guess I'm done with DC.
  • No way! Everyone has fallen in love with Henry Cavill as Superman. No other actor can replace him. They can try but it will be throwing money down the drain. Just like when Disney messed up Star Wars and tried to sell us Ray and Kylo ren.
  • Desrest Henery....we are all a bit sad or worried when change happens...since u handled it so well am.sure u are excited about the future...u are wow....handsome an awesome actor and a kind person...all the very best to you.
  • I think this is just ridiculous. As you say, it's not officially connected, but most likely that he resigned from Witcher to play Superman. Now he's neither. The only positive from this scenario is that it's been proven that Hollywood cannot kill Henrys career. The love for that man from the fans is increadible to watch as I can't seem to find anyone who doesn't like the guy. He deserves to have any and every role he wants no matter the universe, studio, producer. Mark my words: He is the great of this generation.
  • Henry was the perfect Superman for this generation of fans. My generation had Christopher Reeve. Both were terrific in their roles, and both had such respect and understanding of the responsibility that came with wearing the cape.
  • @JDutoit
    It would be a great move for Marvel to hire Henry Cavill for movies, because he is famous a fantastic actor and everyone loves him.
  • Henry has been my favorite Superman! I'm old enough to remember George Reeves on TV. Reeves brother played Hercules in that same time-frame

    They did him dirty. It's far worse that they brought him back only to do this. This also makes me think that Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam is done as well. He fought so hard and insisted it had to be Henry as Superman.
