His return in Justice League was delayed to the end of the film, giving him far less screen time than his counterparts. Much of that criticism fell on Cavill's shoulders as his character faced the most scrutiny in the film. The darker tone and death of the character at the end left a bad taste in the mouths of some viewers, as well as studio executives who wanted to see better numbers.

Cavill appeared in a Man of Steel watch party with Snyder on the anniversary of the film when the director announced that his cut of Justice League would be going to HBO Max, prompting many to think Cavill may don the cape yet again for the DCEU. Years later Snyder was invited back to finish and release his cut, a far superior 4-hour version to the scaled-down mixtape that is the Joss Whedon version. After a family tragedy, Snyder stepped down, allowing director Joss Whedon to reshoot and re-edit the film into an entirely different cut. This was set up to lead into a three-part Justice League film that never happened, as WB got cold feet based on the critical reception of the film, opting instead for one solo Justice League film, which had several issues. However, Cavill continues to elude any future casting announcements as Superman, even though he says he's still eager to return.Ĭavill's second turn as Superman was in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016, which also cast Affleck in the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman for the first time, as well as Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman. Affleck stepped away from his planned The Batman solo film, but has since appeared again as the character for Zack Snyder's Justice League reshoots and will return for 2022's The Flash.

Cavill starred in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel in 2013, kicking off the DCEU as it's known today, expanding the franchise to tie into all aspects of the DC universe. Ben Affleck's Batman is returning to the DCEU, but Henry Cavill's Superman is surprisingly absent from any officially announced plans to continue as the character.
