SIKE! Henry Cavill Is OUT as Superman Just 2 Months After Confirming His Return

ICYMI, let me get you up to speed with some headlines. 

Cavill's last IG post coincided with the release of 'Black Adam' and his cameo as Superman in the post credits. 

If you weren't aware, James Gunn took over as co-CEO of DC back in late October and has been shaking up a ton of stuff. But this has just been disaster this has been for a great dude in Henry Cavill. He's out, he's in, he's out, he's in. It's just not fair for easily the best actor and portrayal among the DCEU justice league. Honestly, I blame the Rock. Allegedly, he strongarmed DC into not only including Cavill's superman cameo at the end of his movie, but into singing Cavill to a new deal. 

This is my takeaway from the situation: This is good for both sides. The DCEU as we know it is a sinking ship and the only way to right it is by starting fresh. James Gunn is there to do just that! He is gonna reboot this universe, give it a semblance of cohesion which DC never had, and finally have a good rival product to Marvel. 

For Cavill, he gets the sympathy points from the public AND he frees himself up to do any number of other blockbusters. That includes becoming a Marvel hero if he wants a good payday. 

If you're reading this, Gunn, don't stop here. Axe Gal Gadot, Momoa, Miller and the rest. It's time for a fresh start.
