" Justice League, on the other hand? Well, he pointed out that "It didn’t work."

@knocturnalzen10 - I think Cavill meant that Justice League "the film didn't work". Whedon's revival of Superman was the best thing out of that film.

I didn't think JL was terrible, just nothing special. It made more sense than BVS and was shorter so that's a plus

Let him produce! This guy gets it. Let him fix it.

@FleischerSupes - Nah.
I noticed he's the only JLer who hasn't issued a clarion call to #ReleasetheSnyderCut.

He has said that he and Whedon saw eye to eye on Superman more than any other director.

@Battabing - well he smiled in JL more than bvs & mos so .. maybe .. just maybe whedon gets superman better... i always wanted snyder to do a batman movie not superman ..

@Battabing - I could definitely see that (aside from the obvious). Supes (and maybe Cyborg to a certain extent) were the only characters I liked in Justice League.

He deserves better and wants to do the character justice. I think wasting Cavill's potential is the biggest mistake WBs and Snyder did among this whole fiasco. at this point will mamoa, gadot, and cavill be seen alongside Pattinson? what a mess
demery
demery - 11/19/2019, 10:26 AM
@Tony93 - Gadot and Momoa definitely. I want Cavill to get a true shot with a better writer and director who know how to make Superman interesting while still being his typical self.

It's irritating as hell when you can see he understands the character so well but has no position of power to do it right.
Battabing
Battabing - 11/19/2019, 10:06 AM
@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - In what way has he demonstrated that he understands Superman? I didn't see anything that indicates much knowledge of the character at all.

@Battabing
Everyone knows that Henry is a bigass nerd.
And clearly you've missed every single moment when he showed -very casually i must say- his ACTUAL comicbook knowledge of the character.

Stuff that even fake ass users here don't know about, from Red Son to Superman: Lois & Clark and even the Rebirth era.
He loves the character, and he's not like some Joe Manganiello that posts some funko pop or random comics here and there just to show the fans how "in the character" he is.
He doesn't have to do that.

@Doomsday8888 - I don't follow Cavill on social media, but I certainly don't recall this fabled Superman wisdom in any interviews he's done, including this one.

LongMayHeReign - 11/19/2019, 10:28 AM
@Doomsday8888 - Henry Cavill is more like Superman in real life than he ever was under the direction of Snyder, and I feel Joss realized this and finally let Henry be Henry on screen.

These 2 were perfectly cast for their roles, but sadly only one of them was given the chance to truly shine.

Doomsday8888 - 11/19/2019, 10:29 AM
@Battabing
The last thing i remember was Henry talking about the black suit, probably around the JL promotion, and not only he talked about the Death of Superman but he also mentioned Jurgens' maxi with a bearded Superman and all.
It's difficult for me to forget that because that shit caught me off guard.
Because it's one thing to read popular stuff like Red Son, Death of Superman etc... but to actually try to keep up with the current ongoings etc? Shieeet.

Battabing - 11/19/2019, 10:34 AM
@Doomsday8888 - Oh, Henry knows particulars about the most famous Superman story of all time?
Doomsday8888
Doomsday8888 - 11/19/2019, 10:45 AM
@Battabing
Read again.
I said it's one thing to know particulars about popular stuff like Death of Superman and Red Son, and another knowing plot point about a maxi like Superman: Lois & Clark/Rebirth era, something that happened...3 or 4 years ago.

Of course, unless you're implying that Superman: Lois & Clark is one of the most famous Superman stories of all time.
Which is...cute i guess, but it ain't the truth. :)

Huh, could it be that YOU don't know WHO wrote that maxi and therefore got mixed up with aaaall those comics? Heh, gotcha bitch! :P

@Doomsday8888 - I'm not claiming to be a Superman expert. If you ask me, David F. Sandberg and his writer, Henry Gayden, got Superman better than Cavill or anyone else at WB in Shazam!.

@Battabing - he revealed. "I’ve not given up the role. There’s a lot I have to give for Superman yet. A lot of storytelling to do. A lot of real, true depths to the honesty of the character I want to get into. I want to reflect the comic books. That’s important to me...."

I mean it was right here in this very article lol. Of course it doesn't say verbatim "I Henry Cavill have read a lot of Superman comics and know everything about him." but clearly he has SOME knowledge of the character he's playing, enough to know when the director is going in the wrong direction or not.

@TRexx21 -
C'mon, now, we all have SOME knowledge of of these characters. Nearly all of us know that Superman and Batman don't kill. We all know where they come from and how they came to be, and what their general philosophies are. He's no more an expert on Superman than you or I. None of these actors are experts on the characters they portray.

In any case, he's done with the Superman. Let him focus on his Witcher job.
