What’s even left to say about this? Dwayne Johnson spent so much time fighting top Warner Bros. brass to allow Henry Cavill to re-don those blue tights and stop by as Superman to “reframe the structure of DC universe” or some such. His Man of Steel finally returned to movie screens when Black Adam premiered on October 21. On October 24, Cavill confirmed he’d be reprising the role again soon. On October 25, James Gunn and Peter Safran were put in charge of DC movie and TV entertainment. And on December 14, Gunn announced that Cavill’s days as Superman were done. Sorry, Henry. Whenever we think about Superman murdering thousands of people, we’ll always think of you.
