Henry Cavill has given the saddest news to his fans, since he has confirmed what many feared; The British actor will not play Superman again.
Through a statement published by Cavill on his official Instagram account, confirming what James Gunn had already advanced on his Twitter account, the acclaimed actor has been removed from his leading role in Superman.
“I have just had a meeting with James Gunn and Petter Safran and it’s sad news, everyone. I will, after all, not be returning as Superman. After being told by the studio to announce my return back in October, prior to their hire , this news isn’t the easiest , but tha’s life. The changing of the guard is something that happens. I respect that. James and Peter has a universe to build. I wish then and all involved with the new universe the best of luck , and the happiest of fortunes.
For those who have been by my side through the years…..we can mourn for a bit, but then we must remember…. Superman is still around. Everything he stands for still exists, and the examples he sets for us are still there! My turn to wear the cape has passed, but what superman stands for never will. It’s been a fun ride with you all, onwards and upwards“.
