- There's an unfortunate update to the Henry Cavill news I posted back in Entertainment News #12. Back then I reported that he left his role as Geralt from the Netflix TV series The Witcher to return to his role as Superman. Well bad news for us Superman fans, Cavill posted a statement (below) on his Instagram account stating that he will no longer be playing Superman. I guess he doesn't fit the new Warner Bros. Discovery executives' plans for their vision of the DC Comics movies. They really should have let him know they changed their minds about his involvement before he quit his job based on what they had initially told him.
It's disappointing because although I had issues with his performance in Man of Steel (it felt like he was told or directed to be as wooden as possible), but it was so much better in Batman v Superman and Justice League. Here's hoping that the next role Cavill gets will be something that's really amazing.
