    Gunn is making a big mistake! He should find a way to incorporate Snyder—verse into the new DCU, not throw it aside! The alienation is killing the new movies!

    1. Christopher Harvey

      I think his big ideas are going to get him fired and he will definitely deserve it! Do what the audience want any critics need to be quiet, they don’t know movies or fans.

      1. AJ

        I’m done with DC. far too late to reboot. In fact I enjoyed the original suicide squad movie far more than the reboot that Gunn made. The only good thing to come from it was peace maker. I liked the Snyder verse

        1. Bobby

          I agree 💯

        2. Rj

          Snyder was involved in Suicide Squad 2

        3. Corenswetter

          Corenswet makes me wet! 💦👅🌈

        4. Tom

          Agreed

        5. Kris

          Cavill should be the one and only Superman. He is superb in every way

          1. Rob

            Henry Cavill is an awesome Superman !!

      2. Bungo

        What audience? Because I’m pretty sure I want something different to you, so all you are saying is “Do what I want!”

        1. James Gunn making a big mistake by getting rid of Henry Cavill,he is the best superman.

          1. Cj

            Yes he is the best superman. I agree 100%

      3. Trae

        Lol to yall who actually believe recasting characters that were hated for most of their time on screen is a problem, just stop already. Yall always complain when characters get recasted and then love what the new actors do with the characters in the new movies…. happens damn near everytime so for once just shut up, n wait and see how it turns out. Don’t condemn them before you even see the finished product…. you people are something else man…

        1. Jack

          Isn’t that what gunns done with snyder verse?

      4. Aniko

        He is making a big mistake. Henry Cavill is the most perfect actor for Supermans role

        1. Dig

          agreed trae. but I don’t like how they ended it with Henry. they could technically still use him in a crisis on infinite earths. all they care about is money so if enough people don’t watch the movie they do something different.

      5. Andrew

        Doing what the audience wants is exactly what got them into this mess. Sometimes it better to leave it to the professionals.

      6. Liz

        We will see when it releases. I think you made a big mistake getting rid of cavill. I don’t even want to see it.

    2. Larry

      Hey, yes Henry Cavill I thought was the best superman he’s got the look yes, I think they’re making a big mistake.

      1. Bert

        While I don’t understand why fix something that is not broken, I will give it a chance (until it streams though) I do look forward to seeing Blue Beetle in the big screen-

        1. The Great and Terrible

          It was broken in that it wasn’t making money, it was critically panned, and many DC fans (myself included) greatly disliked the movies and were not going to see them in theaters anymore

      2. Cj

        It is just too disappointing to accept yet another person as Superman when Henry Cavill is absolutely perfect for the role. I wasn’t sure about him at first but he has convinced me every time he portrayed him. Trying to get into another totally actor as Superman when we already have an established Cavill makes me just wait for the next marvel flick. Talk to the hand folks.

    3. William

      I think it’s a mistake to remake dceu with dcu. Synderverse is perfect. Why change something that is perfect. Why try to change a winning franchise and that fans love. This just shows that James Gunn is not insomuch with what fans want. And his dcu is doomed.

      1. Robert Purcell

        I think WB should sell the snyderverse rights to netflix, and keep it part of the DC elseworlds. Let zack snyder finish man of Steel 2, justice league 2 & 3

        1. Mario Martinez

          I agree specially since a new actor for superman has been chosen

          1. Matt

            Leave Henry Cavill as Superman and stay with the Snyder universe.

          2. Kenny

            Thank you👍❤️,everyone should just let go off synderverse and move on, we could get a good and maybe, a universe from Gunn, let’s just watch as he builds a new DC universe

        2. Sam

          I think this is the best solution. Have Snyder else continue on its path. DC managed to finally surpass Marvel with this storyline. Cahill and company are the best things that have happened to DC. Gunn is killing the heroes we all grew up with.

      2. The Snyderverse was okay, but there was no plan!

        1. There was alot of great stuff, but should have reigned in Snyder from Day One rather than on the THIRD MOVIE… Let’s face it MoS was agreat start, but BVS: Dawn Of Justice was a complete mess!

          1. Sanjay Sarjal

            No…BvS was not a mess

        2. Blah

          Yes there was a plan. All you got to do is research what Zacks plans were

      3. Tom

        The cast isn’t the problem, it was some of the scripts. Snyder’s version was so much better.

        1. Mitch

          Yes some of the scripts were the problem, but writers evolve their scripts during the process for a number of reasons, including casting. Some casting was definitely a problem, keeping a groomer and abuser as the lead of what was meant to be the biggest movie of the year was a massive mistake, there should be no space for a groomer to lead a movie which is meant to be directed towards an open audience including children

      4. Trae

        Bruhh what?!?! A winning franchise that gets bombed critically and where each movie makes less and less money with each box office release???? That’s what you call a winning franchise?? Lmfaoo yup DC desperately needs to restart their whole plan and start over because it has failed at every single junction. If yall won’t say it I will.

    4. Paul Hughes

      Agreed 100% This is what he should have done, used Snyders stuff and other stuff from the past, but looking at the past few movies he has wrecked them with silly reshoots. Clooney? Come on!

      Gunns stuff should be at a MINIMUM.

      1. kurt

        Guns stuff hasn’t started yet…

      2. I agree with the majority of the people who have already commented. Keep Cavill and add on another ” wing ” or go on to another section of the MULTIverse. I mean, isn’t that what the word multi means ? More than one. Don’t restart, just add to what you already have.

    5. Darline

      Yes, Henry Cavill !!!!!

    6. Dan Ishman

      We didn’t get a chance to see Black Adam vs Superman that would have been great at the box office and then later, think fans would like to see another different person as Superman.

      1. Anthony Coleman

        If it’s not brok..
        Don’t try to fix.
        Keep Henry Cavill.

        1. Robert Ellis

          Hands down the best Superman there will ever be. Dont let Henry Cavill go!!!!

          1. Rick

            So far Henry Cavill is the most consistent thing in DC so far since Christopher Reeves and Micheal Keaton. DC has a habit of changing like undies. Make a plan and stick to it. Stop using people that leave halfway through production 👀

        2. Terry

          He says he doesn’t like Henry Cavill & wouldn’t have hired him in the first place, but who does he replace him with but his lookalike, yes a little younger but a spitting image of Henry Cavill. Makes no sense.

    7. sed

      turn snyder verse in to injustice they already have the set up

    8. Jesse Garcia

      Henry Cavill is who we think of as Superman since Christopher Reeves. The is the face of Superman. They shouldn’t be so obsessed with making their own mark and embrace what is.

      1. Mike S

        Agreed. Every time you change the actor of a successful lead role, you run the risk of diluting the character. Everyone is tired of multiple Batman leads. Why screw with Superman too?

    9. Joseph

      I totally agree keep synder verse intact
      Otherwise dceu will die

    10. Davey

      The Actors Playing Superman Batman Wonder Woman Aquaman Cyborg And The Flash… ” ARE THE JUSTICE LEAGUE!!! DONT CHANGE ANYTHING!!! ”
      + In My Opinion Henry Cavill Is The ” BEST SUPERMAN SINCE CHRISTOPHER REEVES!!! ” And I’ve Been A Super Hero Fan 4 A LONG TIME!!!

    11. Cedric soul

      Agree

    12. Drew

      Gunn is a bisexual cuckold hoping to get his way with Ezra Miller.

    13. MagikSuperman

      True. Tbh I don’t understand why Gunn got rid of a sure thing just so he can implement “his” vision… -It shouldn’t be about him but the fans. The Snyderverse is a guaranteed box office success.

      1. Alan

        Um, it really hasn’t been that great.

    14. Alan

      What are you talking about? No movies have come out yet.

    15. Lee

      Henry Cavill l, was amazing as superman. Am happy that he is returning to the screen for this amazing character. 👏

    16. James

      You got that right Cavill is a great Superman and he isn’t gonna find a better Wonder Woman

    17. Mansa Musa

      I agree. He should’ve let Zack finish his 3 movie’s. They say zack had plan’s on doin a flash point type movie after the justice league movie’s. The flash was nice but I think zack would’ve did a better job. Then Jason canceled Ben’s batman movie with death stroke. That movie would’ve been a classic.

    18. Brian

      💯

  2. Jay

    I want Cavill

    1. Robin

      Me too

  3. SuperManFan

    Henry Cavil is to Superman, what Daniel Crag is to James Bond. Which is to say my favorite versions of the portrayals.

    1. Ennis

      Very true

    2. John

      I agree with you 💯%. I just want to add to your comment, also, what Babe Ruth is to Baseball.

    3. Jeff

      Cavill is not right for Superman let’s move on please.

      1. Angel

        Get out of here. He’s absolutely perfect. Whom would you choose?

    4. Joe Clark

      I am 53 yrs old and I have seen every superman movie since the 70’s and there is no one can fill Henry Cavills superman boots! I will never watch another DC movie unless Henry is brought back to his role of Superman! DC is losing its entire fan base because James Gunn sucks ass!

      1. Anna Garcia

        Facts! Agree 100%!! Cavill is THE BEST Superman since Reeves. I wont watch another Superman movie without him!

  4. I love Guardians of the Galaxy but James Gunn is making a huge mistake, Henry Cavill is Superman and The Rock is Black Adam and that movie would’ve been amazing.

    1. Kyle Grant

      The guy is not only a fan of the character and the comics, but can act and look the part.. he portrays a beautiful emotion of the character struggling to be this man, but also a symbol.. that’s what the character needs.. I loved all movies Henry Cavil was in as SM

    2. Long time fan

      James Gunn is make a huge mistake. Cavill is Superman. It’s so tiring to keep having all these reboots.

  5. Atomsmasher

    Nobody wants to see David Cornhole

    1. Josh

      Henry Cavill was a sick Superman but Dwayne Johnsons Black Adam vs Superman would be unreal to see!

  6. Jeff

    Should have never replaced him to begin with. He played Superman well.

  7. KRod

    I was very disappointed by the news of the replacement of Henry Caville as Superman. I am a superhero fan, so I will give James Gunn’s superman a chance. I don’t believe Gunn is able to inject heart into his movies the way Zack Snyder can.

  8. I got tired of scanning what is the new movie are we talking MOS2???

  9. Rosario

    Henry is Superman hands down awesome person and actor plus he is a nerd with muscles

  10. Chris West

    Love Cavill as Supes, somehow room for both not unlike Batman

  11. Dan Dugas

    Cavill will always be the Superman of this generation.

  12. Silvio

    I’m not a fan Snyder or his version of DC. In my opinion he ruined DC. The more they keep referencing the Snyderverse the harder it will be to move forward. They need to put the Snyderverse to bed permanently!

    1. Bobby Rios

      I Agree , The Snyderverse is Complete Burnt Rubbish , I will Never see the Snyderverse Justice League Movie cut , everyone should be kissing Gunns BLANK* because Wonder Woman Gal Gaddot I hear is getting the Coveted Role AGAIN even though He should give it to someone Better or different.

    2. Nightwolf

      First of it was the syderverse that made dcu the titan it is with it dc would be nothing like when Westley snipe’s saved marvel from going out of business for good by playing blade

  13. Cavill easy as that.

    1. Kenny, the Wine Guy

      Truly, one of the best things (of the few) that came out of the SnyderVerse was Henry Cavill as Superman. Give the man a good, solid, UPLIFTING story without all the depressing crap from Snyder and you’ll have the best Superman movie since 1978.

      1. Dana

        Yes!

  14. Steven

    Henry Cavill Is The Bestest Superman Since Christopher Reeve He Was Absolutely Fantastic In Man Of Steel Justice League Shazam And Black Adam I Want Henry Cavill To Be Superman In Man Of Steel 2 Henry Cavill Is A Fantastic Actor Henry Cavill Is A Fantastic Superman Henry Cavill Is A Superman Bring Him Back As Superman He Is The Best Superman Since Christopher Reeve

  15. Larry Aldridge

    As far as I am concerned, Henry Cavill is Superman! I have no interest in seeing some young guy portray the character in the new D.C. and have no intention of paying money to see it. I guess if the Gunn films flop Warner Bros. Will wake up!

  16. Tim

    Get rid of James gunn. He is a disaster. The guy knows nothing of fan loyalty. His movies are all going to be box open flops. We all like Henry cavill.

    1. Richard

      I do. Obviously you’ve not got any thought into the future of DC. He’s a good actor and given the right script, he can do amazing things with it.

  17. Joe

    Henry Cavill is the best Superman!

  18. Robert Cox

    From early childhood to my current 71yrs old, I have seen every single TV and motion picture version regarding Superman. In my opinion, Henry Cavill has provided the absolute best Superman character. Mr. Gunn’s ego seems to have gotten the best of him. The old saying: “If it’s not broken don’t fix it.” comes to mind. This irritates me so much that I refuse to pay another penny to see Gunn’s Superman movie.

    1. Mark

      I think Cavill had a lot of potential, just like Affleck as Batman, but I wasn’t a huge fan on Snyder’s take… The Martha scene accurately sums it up…

  19. Cariis

    We want cavill back, we never asked for a reboot.
    If only the studio let the directors do their thing but no, they wanted to catch up with marvel.
    Gunn isn’t the right person to head DC in the first place
    DC is meant to be dark and that was Snyder’s vision, a great one with the help of others.
    This isn’t favouritism, just the truth

  20. Scott

    Best new I’ve heard since James Gunn took over DC. Personally I see him as the end of my watching DC movies. Thanks for the encouraging news.

  21. Lashanna

    Henry Cavill is the essence of Superman…. righteousness, justice, love and compassion a reflection of hope.

  22. Francis Lanser

    Henry Cavill was the best Superman since Christopher Reeves. I boycotted that fake Flashpoint movie and never need to see anything DC again without Henry Cavill. Hollywood is finished anyway. My time and money is better spent elsewhere.

  23. Ryu

    Stop it, Stop it now. Keep Henry Cavill as Superman. He’s been the best and most believable Superman. Why change something that works. I’ve seen this new guy there talking about. He’s nothing I would call a superman.

  24. David

    Big mistake replacing Cavill. No need to fix something that’s not broken.

    1. James

      Get rid of gunn, not Henry

  25. Kendrick

    James Gunn is all about give the people what he wants them to have not what they want..I always thought Renee’s was the best version of superman until Henry. He deserves better and at least a proper send off of Man of steel 2 and the fans deserve Justice leage 2 at least with all the originals and then maybe Gunn could move on with the hearts of fans and show true loyalty. Keeping some actors and letting t others go seems to show dislike on a personal level…the rock said it best give the people what they want…people would lose there shit if Henry came back…instant sell out!!!

  26. Mark

    I’m a big DC FAN. but I am no fan of James gunn….I don’t even want to see anything DC anymore because of GUNN

    1. Ed

      Nobody wants a Reboot . We should be seeing Henry Cavil going up against WarWorld Vs Mongol.

  27. Jennifer

    The best man of steel is Henry Cavill! He definitely does not need to be replaced!

  28. Kendrick

    James Gunn needs to see these comments although he probably won’t change cause he has stuck his leg in to deep now and has to save face instead of doing what right

  29. Kendrick

    James Gunn is all about give the people what he wants them to have not what they want.i always thought Revees was the best version until Herny came along and he deserves a proper send off and fans deserve Man of Steel 2 and justice league2 then I think the fans will be able to have closure and imbrace Gunn in a better light instead of all the division…the rock said it best give the people what they want…if Henry came back fans would lose it and it would be an instance sell out…how can you reboot while keep some of the originals and getting rid of your fan favorites and heavy hitter shows no loyalty and makes it seem personal. Let the fans decide or at least have a voice and a choice!!!

  30. Navyguy50

    Bring back Henry Cavill, and bring back Zack Snyder!!!! Anybody who picks David Cornhole over Henry Cavill as Superman has cobwebs in their brain!! How can the DCEU possibly go away from the Snyderverse after the RAGING success that it had for the Zack Snyder version of Justice League?!?!?!

    1. Theresa Froese

      AMEN

  31. George Watts

    James Gunn is a moron and the Flash was an epic fail! Everyone knows that Henry Cavill is a better Superman than that other guy. Too bad DC decided to roll with Gunn’s vision instead of sticking with Dwayne Johnson’s.

  32. Terry Grubbs

    Henry Cavill is the best superman by far….We don’t want any other superman other him..

  33. Pete1

    I would support a boycot of any and all of Gunn’s projects he has made the DC universe worse not better.

  34. Valdez

    Henry Cavil is our Superman can’t you get it through your thick head James bad script bad stories poor directing and certainly terrible editing makes a bad movie James I guess you don’t have good ones so blame the actors. They can only do there jobs but I guess you can’t get that right either then. Blame the actor. If James Cameron was there he could tell a good story but you need time to find a good story so blame the actor to buy time. Do your job deliver a good story and stop blaming the actors. Man up

  35. Nataku

    I’m just saying what everybody already knows Henry Cavill is our Superman.

  36. Kyle Grant

    The guy is not only a fan of the character and the comics, but can act and look the part.. he portrays a beautiful emotion of the character struggling to be this man, but also a symbol.. that’s what the character needs.. I loved all movies Henry Cavil was in as SM

  37. J Robinson

    Huge mistake….. Cavill is superman Gadot is wonder woman and Mamoa is Aquaman anything else will crash and burn.

  38. Kenny, the Wine Guy

    I believe that James Gunn’s vision of Superman might be good, especially better than Snyder’s but why go younger?? Henry Cavill is at a perfect age to play Superman. He isn’t Peter Parker! Smallville will always be considered the ultimate version of a young Clark. Return Cavill to the role. It’s truly the best for business.

  39. Jeffrey

    The reasoning of why some movies we’re box office smashes , is because they used the same
    Original actors from those movies .. when you already start up a story line and make the first movie,, Doesn’t matter who you bring in to run things you stick to the storyline, finish the story then move on, you don’t come in change everything as though the storyline didn’t exist, then it doesn’t matter who you change the movie will be a flop.and I believe Gunn’s superman will be as bad as if not worst than Ryan Reynolds ( green lantern)

  40. Dennis

    Henry Cavill is the best superman!

  41. Jess

    Keep Henry Cavill. That’s it!!!

  42. Lee

    I think Gunn is letting his ego get in the way. He wants movies he created so he can take all credit. Hopefully the continue the trend of flops coming from DC. Getting rid Henry and Gal are mistakes.

  43. Anthony

    The question should have been, does James Gunn care that the ENTIRE fan base wants to see Cavill reprise the role? Answer : NO he only cares about what HE wants to see on the screen, making the fans happy is at the bottom of his priority list

  44. Rich

    Gunn is a fool! He is trying to rehash the beginning origin story with younger cast. What he fails to realize is the demographics and the huge middle age and young people love Cavill. Compared to the very small young crowd ..which is also broke..by the way! Gunn should be Fired…..for disrespecting the hard efforts to build a great storyline and brand.

  45. Dustin

    While I do think Snyder is not a good story teller and basically crapped all over the DCU, I do love Cavill as Sup and Affleck as Batman (if we can’t have Keaton of course).
    I think Gunn should take Snyder’s already developed DCU and its characters and move them forward with better stories and zero “Maaaaaartha”s.

  46. Rick

    DC’s biggest mistake was Not making Man of Steel 2 with Henry Cavill. The fans have waited for years to see that movie but all the while DC gave us everything but MoS2!
    I don’t know anyone who’s excited to see David Cornwall(?).

  47. Kathleen

    Just saw the picture of the person that was going to play Superman. Ummmm, respectfully, nope. Henry Cavill is Superman. He nailed the part. He is the part. He simply is Superman. He could be approaching his 70’s, he’s still Superman. Cavil is one of the few redeeming qualities of the synder-verse. Unlike batman, who has been Christian Bale in my mind (although I think Ben did a commendable job), since I saw Nolan’s trilogy. Superman cannot be as easily replaced. Just like Jason Momoa is aquaman. Anyway…

  48. Caroline

    Gunn is making a mistake.
    DC not had a good run with their movies. Cavill is superman of now as Christopher Reeves was in the 80s

  49. Tom

    Big mistake. You don’t fire someone who’s just a new contract just because they don’t fit your vision of what you want to do.

  50. Maria Medina

    Henry Cavill is the right choice! Gunns making a huge mistake!!

  51. Will

    I love Henry Cavill as Superman I don’t understand the man made 1 Superman movie in 2013 That’s it with him carrying the movie alone
    Just one movie and he’s being replaced doesn’t make sense

  52. He is making a extreme mistake Henry Cavill is extremely convincing as Superman..

  53. Bro

    I rewatched Man of Steel. Henry Cavill is this generations Superman. Its a big mistake to replace him.

  54. Mike

    Gunn IS A big mistake. Hey moron dude you read what happened to Witcher when they got rid of Henry? Ratings tanked so bad they are considering not making a new season at all now. The same will happen with DC.

  55. Rhône

    In what drug induced stupor was he in when he decided to replace Henry Cavill as superman? Thats like replacing Stallone in Rocky….with Matthew Perry

  56. Michael Buie

    Henry Cavill IS Superman. Whatever you think of Black Adam not making a half billion dollars, Dwayne Johnson was right abiut who is Superman. Cavill’s Superman being shelved is a colossal failure and calls into question Gunn’s judgment… and those who retain him.

    Young Superman is ok… but not as a reboot that benches Cavill Superman.

  57. Robert Allen

    Henry Cavill is the best Superman I’ve seen in years.

    1. Jim

      I respect James Gunn and the work he did with Gaurdians of the Galaxy.
      However, he is Wrong to replace Henry Cavill as Superman. I have been reading DC comics since they were 8 cents an issue and Henry is the BEST and Most accurate Superman Ever!!!
      I won’t be attending any of the new Superman movies with anyone else.

  58. Joe

    Henry is Superman, Grant is the Flash. If Grant played the Flash in the movie I would have watched it. If Henry plays Superman, I’ll watch it.

  59. Malcolm Martin

    Big Mistake, Big Mistake, Big Mistake, I can’t say it enough, in my opinion Henry Cavil is the best Superman that I have seen period

  60. Kip

    Gunn will blow it. He wants to do it all by himself, write, direct and produce and i know it will bomb. You should listen to the fans James. After all it what we want not what you want

  61. Eric

    #firejamesgunn
    WB has made a huge mistake. If Snyderverse was as bad as they claim, then why is it that the minute they let Snyder go, every movie tanked? Funnier part is if they had just let Snyderverse finish properly, it would’ve been done by now and WB could’ve done whatever they wanted and had money. Instead they’re going broke and the so called “small” fanbase of the Snyderverse has made a huge impact on all the latest outcomes of the movies. That impact will continue and wb will continue to fail

  62. Lee

    Henry Cavill as Superman, hands down. Just give the fans what they want, not what Gunn wants.

  63. David

    Henry needs to play superman,it like telling Robert Downey jr.not to play iron man,cause that role was meant for him

  64. Dan Ishman

    Dear James Gunn if you read this post please reconsider replacing Henry Caval.

    1. Christy

      Bottom line is that Henry Cavill is Superman/Witcher just like Keanu Reeves is John Wick/Neo. Once you start changing up the actors is doesn’t matter how good the storyline is. These directors need to remember who pays their bills and stop alienating the fan base, especially hard core comic fans. We want authenticity to the original creators of these comics and actors who can achieve the essence of the characters and bring them to life. Henry Cavill does that better than any other actor who has been passed the torch by Christopher Reeves, the true and original Superman!!

  66. PDS

    Cavill will always be the superman that all others attempt to be. Such a foolish mistake replacing him.

  67. Andrei

    I swear If they do not bring Henry Cavill back as Superman but bring David Corenswet, I swear I will start watching all the MCU

  68. Terri

    Henry Cavill is Superman! Don’t mess Superman up by changing the person playing him a dozen times like Batman! Henry Cavill IS and always will be Superman in most Superman fan’s eyes!

    Henry Cavill IS Superman just like Gal Gadot IS Wonder Woman. Replacing him with someone else will just make the movie plummet. You can reboot DCEU, but just keep the characters.

    1. *Actors*, not characters 😜

      I must politely disagree. Superman has been played by many actors over-the-years and most were big successes (not the “Superman Returns” iteration) and respectable in their own right. A huge number of people actually regard Christopher Reeve as the quintessential Superman, for instance, but plenty of people do indeed think it’s Henry Cavill.

    Henry Cavill is Superman just like Gal Gadot is Wonder Woman. You can reboot DCEU without replacing the characters who were meant to portray them.

    1. Correction: *actors* who were meant to portray them 😜

  71. No, thank you. Part of the appeal of Blue Beetle is *supposed* to be that it *isn’t connected to the DCEU/Snyderverse*. That’s what we were promised, and that’s why this “might” – as James Gunn says – fit in to the new DCU continuity, “if the film does well”. If it has Henry Cavill in it, then it can’t really be in the new continuity, can it?

    Henry Cavil in my opinion was the best Superman ever in the movies. Why take this role from him. He is a great actor. Why are you trying to fix or replace when things are going extremely and amazingly well. Please whatever you do do not replace Henry. God bless you Henry

  73. LEEE777

    Brandon Routh was an awesome Superman, just saying…hey well im looking forward to seeing Guy Gardner in live action a favorite DC character in Legacy! Still would of loved to see Cavill Against the Rock in a Black Adam or Superman sequel!

  74. Dana

    Yes! Henry Cavill is our Superman.

  75. Theresa Froese

    Henry Cavill is the ONLY Superman. I will not see ANY Gunn movies because he gave the role of Superman to ANYONE else

  76. Nick

    Snyderverse was the rage, good or bad it was definitive to the genre. Rebooting and rebooting and rebooting is making the film industry redundant and insecure. How many times can you change the logo of Charmin toilet paper. It’s still toilet paper in the end. Don’t play with something that works. Stick with one product ” Snyderverse” and build it and people will come.

    1. Trae

      You really expect Gunn of all people to build the “snyderverse”?? Lol do you know who Gunn is? They have two VERY different and distinct styles that would never work together. Do yall even think before you type? Doesn’t seem like it. Lol

  77. Ryan

    If you don’t like Snyder that’s fine. Saying his universe was chaotic is absurd. Warner should have continued with Zack and let him do another JL. The reason we got Cavill
    Was because of Snyder and that is worth it all by itself.

  78. Anita

    They are making a huge mistake. I won’t see it. Why change prob bc it won’t costd as much to get a newbie.

  79. Omar

    Henry Cavill isn’t the reason why the DCEU hasn’t been able to compete with Marvel. Warner Brothers either doesn’t know how to make a cohesive DC movie or they just don’t care. The rights needs to be sold to a studio that knows what they’re doing and actually cares about the end product. Bring back Henry Cavill as Superman.

  80. Tom EL

    Why hire a lookalike when you can have this generation’s Superman revisit the role in your new universe.

    Remember how Batman was cheapened for a little?

    Don’t do it again.

  81. Seng lee

    Henry carvil is the best superman, Christopher reeves pass away. He look exactly 💯 percent what we always dream iconic superman… Changing the cast is the most biggest mistake…we want Henry carvil back in superman

  82. Seng lee

    Henry carvil is the best superman, after Christopher reeves pass away. He look exactly 💯 percent what we always dream iconic superman… Changing the cast is the most biggest mistake…we want Henry carvil back in superman

    1. Wil

      Agree with you a 💯 percent

  83. Dfella504

    I don’t understand why try starting over? All the dceu needed was to let the vision play out then find better writers and directors.. the actor’s were fine via (miller’s) Barry ( Levi’s) shazam ,but I can live with it.. Gunn version I just don’t see it getting any better

  84. Dave

    Big mistake. Caviezel was the best superman by far. Very disappointed.

  85. Ari

    I m Done with DC the good actors are out

  86. Drew

    Gunn is a bisexual cuckold hoping to get his way with Ezra Miller after Cavill and Johnson rejected his advances. #FireJamesGunn….

  87. Wil

    There’s only one true Superman and that’s Cavill no one else compares with the work and how he portrayed Superman in the big screen lately!!!

  88. Jacob

    James Gunn making a big mistake by getting rid of Henry Cavill,he is the best superman.

  89. Brad

    Hope gunn gets the sack I won’t go to cinema to watch his new super boy films. I want the snyderverse.

  90. Rebecca Meece

    Henry Cavill is the best Superman I’ve seen in about 40 years! The only one better is the one and only Christopher Reeves. Common people! Please don’t ruin DCU more than it already is. People like consistency!!!

  91. Michael G.

    Big Mistake trying to get rid of the best Actor in my lifetime who ever played Superman!

  92. Tiffany

    He is making a big mistake he will probably get fired I was done with DC soon as they said Cavill not superman WHAT the battle with him and the Rock would’ve been epic

  93. General zod

    James gunn should have just kept cavill as superman also join with the Snyderverse so we all can at least see more of the Olympians in action and just get rid of ezra and use the original flash from the series ps gunn and saffron is on a path to mess things up!!!!

  94. BATMAN

    Henry Cavill was the best Superman Ever He had a good run He was amazing in the Witcher He’ll do great in Warhammer He should Abandon DC that ship already sunk They used lied fired and humiliated him Know need him because the movies are lost to much money And they might get Fired

  95. Just Sad

    James Gunn making a HUGE mistake by getting rid of Henry Cavill!! He is the one true Superman. I will not watch another DC movie. Sad for all involved.

  96. Andrew

    I can see most of you here are Cavill lovers so let me put this in a that you might be able to sympathize and understand. Sure Henry Cavill had the Superman look, but he was way too dark and gritty as Superman . Superman has always been the Boy Scout of the justice league. Making him dark and gritty messes with the dynamic of the justice league. Batman is supposed to be the dark and gritty character. Not Superman. I sympathize with you guys for wanting a fair and just send off for your beloved Henry Cavill, and It would’ve have been a bittersweet moment with that too. But what’s in the past is in the past and there’s no reason to dwell on it and hate whatever is to come next without any second thoughts. I guess my point is just give it a chance. And go watch MAWS, you’ll see what I’m talking about. Clark is a goofy guy, and Superman is a Boy Scout.

    1. TheSwede

      Cavill wasn’t the reason for the darker portrayal. That was all Snyder. He’s more than capable at portraying a kinder, gentler Superman and doing it better than anyone else.
      However, I think that would be a mistake. It’s been done ad-nauseam. I loved the darker portrayal.

      Most people are upset because other Snyder cast were being brought back for this supposed reboot but not Cavill. It was pretty clear that there was some type of agenda behind Cavill being let go. I think if it was a complete reboot, then there wouldn’t be as big of an uproar as there is.

  97. Jorge

    I will not say that Gunn is right or wrong, but he wants to remain in the 60’s, we comic fans went through the transition of Super niceman to a more dark hero afrter his death and come back. CAVILL, beside Reeve, i s the best Superman perfomance i has seen, phisically and acting wise. Hope hi comes back!

  98. Teddy

    This new DC characters u are working on is bad they’ve spoiled the dceu …. I prefer the old DC characters and find a way to improve ur CGI, it’s very bad especially with the latest flash movie dropped……so to whoever is in charge of running the DC studio pls listen to fans ……
    I prefer the Snyder verse……

  99. Mike

    Gunn is making a huge potentially financially devastating mistake. WB Heads could have collaborated with Zack Synder and have Snyder complete his vision and give a warm hand off to James Gunn. But to call full stop at the beginning of what would have Bern a financial windfall for Warner Brothers films, is not only financially reckless but a firm slap to the face of the Fandom! People are not even giving Superman Legacy a chance.

  100. Jay

    Huge mistake

  101. Tony M

    Henry Cavill is the best Superman. Big mistake letting him go.

  102. Steve

    HE SHOULDN’T JUST GET RID OF HENERY AS SUPERMAN. HE WAS A GREAT SUPERMAN.

  103. Imran

    We finally got some DC heroes on screen and they decided to reboot all unbelievable. Henry cavill is Superman after Christopher Reeve not comparing but Henry was the Superman for the new generation he was finally coming back and they decided to reboot.

  104. Samir

    Esta cometiendo un error muy grande al despedir a Henry Cavill como Superman

  105. Yoyo

    Gunns childish vision isn’t suited for the darker DC universe. I absolutely hate his movies.

  106. Robert

    What a mistake!

    Nothing else to say apart a boycott of the next “Not” Superman

  107. Tim

    Im done with Warner bros. Unless they bring back Henry Cavill period! Someone needs to finish Zack Snyder’s vision!

    I loved Reeves Superman and never dreamed someone could fill his shoes and along came Cavill and made it better in my opinion!! Bring I’m back!!!!

  108. J

    I agree…….Snyder verse was really good…….look at what they’ve done to the Avengers series…….it’s a joke now……

    I think Christian Bale was the best Batman……though I don’t dislike Ben Affleck……he works…..

    Henry Cavill is a great superman….replacing him is a huge mistake…..
    I find it so interesting how movie producers have totally lost touch with great formulas…….for movie making……..
