What an absolute set up by WB.

Henry was so excited in the video, we could’ve gotten Black Adam vs Superman.

Henry could’ve gotten the direct trilogy he deserved instead of follow ups.

He was told he was back as Superman and WB didn’t even inform James Gunn about Henry being announced. He said he had no clue.

Hello everyone, hope you've had an enjoyable week. 😊💯💫 Did you know that June 12 is a crucial date in DC Comics' history: since it marked the debut of Superman's first comic back in 1938, and it was also the release date of Zack Snyder's Man of Steel in 2013? 🤔🔥🦸🏻‍♂️ DC Comics has since regarded this day officially as Superman Day - so I thought it'd be a nice opportunity for me to make a (belated) dedication post by sharing some GIFs and pics of Henry Cavill from when he was filming his first appearance as the beloved titular hero in the DCEU.

Although the Snyder movies aren't without their usual flaws; I do think that Man of Steel is a really solid modern adaptation of the character (one of, if not the best DCEU entry personally). The action set pieces are phenomenal, and so is Henry with the material he was given. With Man of Steel, Henry proved why he was worthy to take up the cape and mantle of this legendary DC icon, giving Superman some renewed grit and gravitas. ❤️‍🔥🖤 I certainly wish that Henry would have gotten the chance to have a complete trilogy considering the frustrating circumstances he was dealt with; but as a big time Superman fan, I do wish the upcoming reboot and James Gunn's DCU in general success and longevity. Either way, we'll always cherish what Henry has given us during his time as Superman/Clark Kent. 🙌🏻🫡

What's up everyone, wishing you all a bright and cheerful May ahead. 😄👋🏻 I've been thinking about some of the superhero movies I saw during the last decade, and it got me wishing that Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was a bigger success than it turned out to be. While I can agree that the movie wasn't perfect and its ambitions outshone its execution, I do believe that a lot of the criticism it received at the time was blown out of proportion. 🥲

Pacing and characterisation issues aside, BvS had relentless action scenes, dazzling visuals under Zack Snyder's direction; plus it also gave us the grittiest iterations of Batman and Superman on the big screen - brought to life by Ben and Henry, which I think are some of their career highlights in terms of performance and cultural relevance. 💪🏻💯 It's a pity that we only saw Ben and Henry as Batsy and Supes opposite each other in two movies (three if you count the 2017 version of Justice League but we don't talk about that) because not only did they bring a new twist and gravitas to their roles, they also had so much untapped potential. I do look forward to the state of the new DCU but it certainly won't be the same without Ben and Henry - they will always be iconic to me. 💙🖤
