Krypton Loaded Up an Excellent Nod at Superman Actor Henry Cavill

It was one of the most talked about moments of last summer. The unnecessary, but undeniably cool, moment in Mission: Impossible - Fallout where Henry Cavill reloads his fists during a fight. Why? No reason. It’s just badass.

Long before that, of course, Cavill became a star playing Superman for DC Films. And this week a Superman-themed Syfy show paid homage to the moment.

In episode two of the second season of Krypton, Seg-El pulls a Kal-El and reloads his fists.

Here’s the full clip followed by a GIF created of the two side by side.
