According to a lot of published reports the WB might be done with Henry Cavill as Superman. Some reports have stated that instead of a sequel to Man of Steel, the WB might bring Supergirl to the big screen.
Just for the record, I didn’t like Man of Steel or BvS ... however, I never had a issue with Cavill as Superman. Truth be told, he did everything that was asked of him, and despite the fact that the material he had to work with was horrible, he gave a good performance.
Also, Cavill fulfilled the terms of his contract, and wants a pay increase to continue playing Superman ... and the WB has basically decided to scrap the next Superman movie because they don’t want to pay him. Totally predictable and pathetic.
So, to recap, Ben Affleck, who should have never been cast Batman because I knew he was never going to commit to a multi movie deal, and Henry Cavill are both out of the DCEU. In other words, the Justice League is pretty much done, and all we are going to get from the WB is a bunch of movies that nobody is asking for or want.
I know it will never happen, but I would love to see the rights to DC comics go the Marvel Studios.
