Superman is also among the candidates. In the early stages, our story focuses on the early parts of Superman’s life, so this character will not be played by Henry Cavill.
However, we just had a great meeting with Henry, we are big fans, and we discussed many exciting possibilities for working together in the future.
And here are Kabir’s social media reactions to Gunn’s meeting with Safran.
