While David Corenswet faces the red cape for James Gunn SupermanDCU fans could still see Henry Cavill returning to another role.
The boss of DC Studios recently declared that he “would love” the Cavill launch in his DCU when he told how he and co -president Peter Safran announced the “absolute gentleman” of an actor whom he would no longer play Clark Kent in the franchise.
“It’s terrible. Believe it or not, the day we were dealing to try to determine if we could take the job in DC studios,” recalls Gunn on the Happy sad confusion podcast. “The day the agreement concluded, all of a sudden, they announced that Henry was back. And I said to myself, “What’s going on? We know what is the plan. The plan was to come and do Superman. It was really unfair for him and total disappointment. »»
When he and saffron were exploited for co-heads of the DC studios in 2022, Gunn said: “There was a void at the time and many people were … They had a vision of what they wanted to do to DC and that they tried to force their way and that was simply never part of the equation for [WBD CEO] David Zaslav. We entered, and it was really unhappy. I say to myself “this poor guy”.
Gunn and Safran then “seated” with Cavill to announce the news. “He was an absolute gentleman and a great guy on this subject,” recalls Gunn. “He said,” The only thing I ask is that I am able to reveal it myself rather than coming from you guys. “And I say to myself:” It’s a class act “.”

And although Corenswet took over as the steel man, Cavill could still appear in the new DCU. “I told him about it that day. I would love to put Henry in something,” said Gunn.
Since its management of DC studios with Safran, Superman Mark the first entry of his new DCU franchise, which begins with the phase of “gods and monsters”.
