DC Studios co-CEO/filmmaker James Gunn debunks Henry Cavill returning to the new DC Universe following reports about him playing a non-Superman role.
James Gunn debunks Henry Cavill joining the new DC Universe following reports about him playing a non-Superman role. Following the launch of DC Studios, a new DC Universe is being created by James Gunn and Peter Safran. While the DCEU still has a few movies left to release, the franchise is essentially coming to an end in favor of the DC Universe. In January of this year, the duo announced the first batch of TV shows and movies in Chapter 1, "Gods and Monsters.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Most of the announced DC Studios movies and TV shows that have been announced haven't begun filming. However, one project that has come a long way is Creature Commandos, an upcoming HBO Max show with Gunn as the writer. While Creature Commandos is further along than other DC Universe projects, James Gunn recently had to debunk another rumor. Reports were claiming that Cavill was joining Creature Commandos to voice Frankenstein. Gunn made it clear that they have already tapped an actor for Frankenstein, and it's not Cavill. In fact, Cavill was never even approached to play Frankenstein in the animated series.
Not long after The Authority was announced, fans were already fan-casting Cavill as Apollo, who is a Superman-esque character. While it would be ironic, it would also be a funny casting move if Cavill was tapped to portray Apollo in the DC Universe. There have also been fun casting suggestions that Cavill could play Jor-El in the new Superman: Legacy movie. There are obviously always other DC characters he could play outside of those roles.
While Cavill's Superman exit had mixed reactions, Gunn stressed that there was never any bad blood between them. Despite the numerous rumors that Gunn debunks, it will keep happening as there will always be fake scoops out there looking to get attention. But as the DC Universe goes forward, there will hopefully be a role for Cavill down the line.
