Soo happy about this! Cavill was born to play Superman, and i absolutely love his and Ben's chemistry on screen. BatFlek is the closest we've ever gotten to a live adaptation of Batman. I love having these guys back. Now if we can just get somebody to write their characters true to the comic adaptation.
Actually, there was animosity. WB wanted Henry out, we won't know why, they even announced Sasha Calle as Supergirl on his birthday. WB hated Henry so much that they even turned down a script by Christopher McQuarrie. Since Henry had 1 movie left, they tried to trick him into a Shazam cameo, however Danny Garcia caught this and told Henry to sit this out They started spreading rumors that Henry was a Diva and was difficult to work with, even though Netflix, Paramount and Apple are happy to work with him
correction: they announce a black superman reboot by jj abrams on his birthday. The Sasha Calle's Supergirl casting was announce way before that (if I remembered correctly, I think it was sometime after 2020 DC Fandome)
We can still remember what they did with Zack Snyder, if it wasn't the Twitter fighting for release that cut, that masterpiece would still residing in the graveyard. WB dissociated from its own audience
"You will give WB an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you. They will stumble. They will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun, Cavill." -- Dwayne Johnson
Man of Steel is amazing. The director cut of Batman v Superman is awesome. And Zack Snyder’s Justice League is incredible. The movies were never the problem. WB getting in the way was the problem.
Old Warner brothers wanted avengers money out of justice league without putting in the work marvel did and threw their dummy out when they didn’t get it
What we long suspected is finally revealed as true: the old management at WB were too hasty to keep rebooting and get rid of everything. Cavill was incredible with what he was given. Good on the Rock for pushing ahead
Man of Steal was a wonderful movie!! They took my child hood hero and made a movie about his home, cast A actors to be his parents but blame the movie for under preforming which is crazy!! I get emotional just watching that movie!! Both dads pass down wisdom and love to this character.. Growing up without a father this movie touched my soul.
Man of Steel didn't get lots of money because it was ahead of its time. Now, when people get a chance to see it for the first time (or re-watch it), the more people actually love it and appreciate it.
The other week Dwayne Johnson liked a comment I made a year ago on Facebook about Zack Snyders Justice League and a potential sequel. Not a fake account or an account ran by someone else. The Rock was reading old comments about the Snydercut.
The Rock has ALWAYS been great at putting on a good show. He knows exactly what he’s doing. After all..he was at one point “The Most Electrifying Man in Sport Entertainment” ….The Great One.
It was a waste of time only having 1 solo Superman movie in almost 10 years. Could have done so much Superman movies while he was in his 30s. But kudos for Cavill staying in shape while doing other movies and doing his personal hobbies.
The main reason the old WB executives didn’t want Cavil back is because Cavil signed a contract for 5films as Superman. WB see cameos as a full film which is BS. Old WB executives don’t want to fulfill there contracts and pay there actor’s fair wages as per there own contracts. Hopefully the new WB executives wake up and listen to the fans. So far so good but future projects with the flash and aqua-man look like crap. Get ride of Ezra and Amber. WB would be gold.
They shouldn't have killed him in the following movie and he basically wasn't even on the poster of the one after that. The MCU builds up each character and gives you the time to love them, that's how they built up their fan base. Everyone keeps saying Superman is the greatest superhero in the world, but the younger generations still need to get to know him. It's not like batman or Spiderman, there have already been so many movies about them in the recent past. Superman was basically starting from scratch, he needed a few more solo movies to grow his fan base. And I know Toby's Spiderman did amazing with the first movie, but that was before the market was saturated with superhero movies, the climate is different now.
5:07 let’s blame someone. Yeah, WB liked to blame someone for their underperformances other than themselves. Kinda tells you how it was under the old leadership there
The Rock is all about pleasing the fans. When he was booed at Comic-Con, that really got to him. It wasn’t a heel boo, it was a legit boo. He was probably like why the freak am I getting booed? It’s not my fault. So he went back to the new leadership and got the ok. Thank you Rock and new leadership!
I love Henry Cavill's Superman. Old WB is out of touch of the people. Will support the new WB management. Thanks, Dwayne Johnson for bringing Superman back home.
@@leadhead7338 He’s not wrong tho. Stop overhyping BvS please. A good movie but terribly Superman and Batman movie bcuz neither character acted like. Batman and Superman should act
Agree with all of this. I know Zazlav is ruffling feathers in Hollywood, but for the DCEU I think he is the best thing. MoS although not the superman film I wanted had some great things in it, Cavill being one of them, so to throw it all out with the bath water seemed very premature. I'm glad he is getting a second shot, hopefully in a solo movie. 🤞
I am glad that Henry Cavill is back as Superman 👍 He was the best interpretation of Superman I had ever seen with his sense of power and speed. Yes he is Superman like Robert Downey Jr is Iron Man! Sorry Michael B Jordan 😢you are a great actor especially as Killmonger, but your version of Superman would probably end your career. Henry Cavill did you a favor so you don’t have to deal with the backlash.
I'll say it again man.....Dwayne as Black Adam is slowly becoming the face if DC, he's (communicating!) everything with the fans(one thing the old WB REFUSED to do), answering the right questions hell he's even the reason DC was at the expo this year(they were gonna pass on it Initially but Dwayne wanted to go and thought it would be good for the movie) I mean this man wanted to play this character so bad and he's is making every moment count and making sure this character gets to his full potential and making sure they remember and KNOW who Black Adam is
Hamada was successful making cheap/highly profitable horror movies and wanted to use the same formula for super heroes: shazam, batgirl, blue Beatle, etc
I think that what Dwayne did was really great. That he fought for something he believes will benefit the rest of the upcoming DC movie in the right direction, and he really should be proud. I also agree with you that when precious DC movies under performed were because of the previous leader ship and the vision the had. And the actors did the best they could with the material they were given. I am so happy that Henry is back as Superman and could not wait to more )
Just to clear things up, the old regime was Kevin tsujihara(responsible for joss your league and joss whedon) Diane Nelson, and Toby Emmerich. Main three people that kept films stagnant and gave Cavill issues. Hamada came later and could do nothing about changing their stance on Cavill. He instead opted to help Zack get his completed film on hbo max, as well as bring shows (doom patrol titans etc) to television and film. Lumping him into this old WB regime is a huge disservice as most of this stuff happened when Geoff johns was head of DC and Zack Snyder was away. Way before Walter got there. Making him a scapegoat here isn’t cool.
For all the haters out there against Henry Cavill Superman returning because he killed General Zod... Remember Christopher Reeves Superman also killed General Zod in his movie... Go fact check it. WELCOME BACK HENRY!!!!!!!
Henry did other projects he didn’t sit around and wait on wb. I think they wanted ti cut him after h the mission impossible Justice league situation. Wb exec we’re ego driven
The DCEU's biggest problem was trying to keep up with the success of Marvel instead of taking the time to build good characters and good movies. Have faith and trust the process. The great Stan Lee was a master at building a characters brand!💪💯
We have to give credit to The Rock for not giving up and pushing for Black Adam more than 15 years. Now for the last 6 years he brought Henry Cavil The best Superman
now that the MCU "Juggernaut" of movies has come to a close I think DC should look back and realize they need to SLOW DOWN .... character development and story continuity is important and should be the forefront .. the DCU came late to the party and just rushed to get to Justice League - they need to pick their own pace and do the movies right ....
The old WB boss wanted Henry to do a cameo in Shazam, he asked for money and they ended up disagreement and a headless stand in. So the WB boss burned him in coming back as Superman.
It was more nuanced, Cavills contract stipulated a certain amount of movie appearances, he had a feeling that if he “used up” one movie with a single cameo WB would not do another movie with him starring
This pretty definitively answers something that we've speculated for a while now about the old regime. Hopefully now though, Black Adam can mean bigger and better things for the future of Superman with Cavill back in the role
Johnson's ex-wife and business partner is Cavils manager. That's a big factor here that should be mentioned. It's in their best interest for him to still be Superman.
When I was a kid, Superman was without any competition, the most recognizable and popular superhero in the world. It's ridiculous for WB to ever have not built the whole DCEU around him. Sure, not everyone loved Man of Steel the way John did, but it was the first film. Imagine if all we had of Captain America was the first movie? You have to keep building his mythology and character. Superman stands at he center of any DC lineup of heroes.
The old regime wasted talent and time. Look at cast of people in not just Man of Steel but entire universe. Henryy Cavill, Amy Adams, Lawrence Fishbourne, Ben Afflect, Jeremy Irons, and they mess it up. Actually the only miscasting was Jesse Eisenburg as Luthor. That was an insanely terrible idea
I hope they stay with cavil for the longest bc I’m not a fan of the role being changed all the time like Batman. They should stick to one actor like the wolverine until he gives it up then pass the torch onto the next
I cannot be more excited about Henry Cavill return as Superman. I can’t profess to be the biggest DC or DCEU fan…make mine Marvel 😎, however, one of the biggest draws for me has been Henry Cavill as Superman and now Dwayne Johnson as Black Adam. I also need to inform Mr. Campea, that Henry Cavill has confirmed our “bromance”, so he has no room for you😂😂😂. One could only dream. Anyway, can’t wait for the collaboration between those 2. I thought “Man from U.N.C.L.E.” was a wonderful film and definitely underrated👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☺️😎
I can see why the old regime at WB would look at the failures of Man Of Steel, Batman V Superman and Justice League (2017) and think that logically it means that Henry’s Superman isn’t working and so they should replace him but I feel like the things that caused his Superman to be so divisive were more because of Zack Snyder than Henry Cavill, because the common complaints were about how he was too broody, the fact that he killed Zod yadda yadda yadda, all things that were done like that because they were a part of *Zack Snyder’s* movie, Henry Cavill was simply doing what he was hired to do, and I think over the years people have begun to realize that, which is why I think that although maybe the Snyderverse as a whole hasn’t become like this Henry Cavill’s Superman is starting to become a lot more respected in the movie fan world, and I think The Rock saw that long before everyone else did, he knew right from the start that “No I can tell, this guy is definitely Superman, a lot of people just haven’t learned how to truly see it yet” And it seems like all these years later people are
Henry Cavill did an ICONIC Superman ❕ C'mon, let's admit it finally....I loved Christopher Reeve and I am truly sorry about his accident and death, BUT Cavill IS Superman ! And in general Hollywood wants to destroy EVERYTHING iconic in the cinema art. More quantity over quality for the consumers.
While I like Henry Cavil, I don't feel like they have written anything worth a crap since he started playing Supes. Non of the movies he was in felt like Superman.
@@pweddy1 You didn't understand what I meant,but it's because of my bad english unfortunately. I am not saying at all,that someone wrote a crapy script involving Henry Cavill. Cavill created an iconic Superman and Hollywood don't like that at all. But of course it's my personal opinion !
Good move! Like in sports being a good GM means understanding what talent you do have and don't have. The worst moves are often letting go of a player who ends up being a star on another team. And everyone knew had they given them a better atmosphere they could have thrived.
I loved Man of Steel, it made me really look forward to the DCEU, unfortunately everything went downhill from there. As for Superman killing Zod, I thought it was important for this movie and for the character building of Superman/Kal-El/Clark. By far the best movie in the DCEU.
At this point... WB should REALLY start listening 👀 doing it their way is what destroyed it, Zack Snyder & Dwayne Johnson along with other huge talents and well know figures are saving the DCEU right now the fans didn't want this to end and it should continue after Zack's JL cut was released as it fixed everything and right now fans just want the flash movie out and to continue as the potential for the DCEU is high right now given how much love has gone into trying to restore and make it better
Yeah. It still doesn't make any sense of why they.. if the script was bad to them fine. Find or hire another script writers and directors but not keeping Henry as Superman knowing fans are saying "wtf are they doing?" Them not letting him nor the other cast back was the issue. They didn't want Snyder's cast which to me were a great cast. I still don't understand it. You all really didn't clarify. Maybe the concept of DC comics and what's it's truly about, that have alot of people uncomfortable may have to do with the fact of religious beliefs. WB tried to water it down as much as possible. The old wanted to appease the children when reality it's really for mature audiences. DC is dark and gritty gods involvement with humanity. These characters are taken from culture of religion and I believe that's the reason. They didn't want nothing to do with it. That's why we kept getting Batman and joker films to last for decades those were bearable. Marvel is more acceptable because my opinion it's more of genetic mutation, birth defects, chemical accidents, and science experimentation. That's why they kept pumping Marvel movies down our throats. They're more flexible, and acceptable to deal with. They can spin it unlike DC characters. That's my opinion.
Ugh. Old regime at WB was being narrow minded and it sounds like in their rush to get away from snyderverse they tried to bin a solid actor in a great role. Cavill has been really strong in the Snyder films, but I think that we haven’t yet sen his best performance in this role.
one of the problems DC did was they didn't make it perfectly clear that lex luthor in that movie was lex luthor Jr. I knew it from the get-go but tremendous amount of people kept thinking it's the original lex luthor Superman's main nemesis. but it wasn't it was his kid which Jesse played a perfect version of Alexander Luther Jr
@@freddiemac327 absolutely, what did they think he meant when the senator said that his name is on the Marquee. And Junior said no that's my father he's the lex before the corp. If you're a fan everybody know lex's father is Lionel. Not to mention a newspaper at the end of the movie that Perry white reads says that lex luthor senior is presumed dead due to a accident.
Imagine being one of the geniuses at Warner Bros that thought "lets ditch of Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck, but lets keep Amber Heard and Ezra Miller".
Exactly!!
The gospel truth!
Sounds like a WEINSTEIN pay to play.
Lmao 🤣😂 true
Real morons. They gotta bring batfleck back. He was great
Excellent points. Cavill is the best live-action Superman we've ever had. I have so much more respect and appreciation for Dwayne "The Rock"!

I also need to inform Mr. Campea, that Henry Cavill has confirmed our “bromance”, so he has no room for you😂😂😂. One could only dream. Anyway, can’t wait for the collaboration between those 2. I thought “Man from U.N.C.L.E.” was a wonderful film and definitely underrated👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☺️😎
I can see why the old regime at WB would look at the failures of Man Of Steel, Batman V Superman and Justice League (2017) and think that logically it means that Henry’s Superman isn’t working and so they should replace him but I feel like the things that caused his Superman to be so divisive were more because of Zack Snyder than Henry Cavill, because the common complaints were about how he was too broody, the fact that he killed Zod yadda yadda yadda, all things that were done like that because they were a part of *Zack Snyder’s* movie, Henry Cavill was simply doing what he was hired to do, and I think over the years people have begun to realize that, which is why I think that although maybe the Snyderverse as a whole hasn’t become like this Henry Cavill’s Superman is starting to become a lot more respected in the movie fan world, and I think The Rock saw that long before everyone else did, he knew right from the start that “No I can tell, this guy is definitely Superman, a lot of people just haven’t learned how to truly see it yet” And it seems like all these years later people are
Someone needs to make a movie about all the drama in making a WB superhero movie.
It might make more money at the box office than joshtice league.
I can't believe Hamada kept his job after Birds of Prey, Batgirl...etc. Cavill personifies Superman, and that is why fans refuse to let him go
Henry Cavill is SUPERMAN PERIODDTTT
Henry Cavill did an ICONIC Superman ❕
C'mon, let's admit it finally....I loved Christopher Reeve and I am truly sorry about his accident and death, BUT Cavill IS Superman !
And in general Hollywood wants to destroy EVERYTHING iconic in the cinema art.
More quantity over quality for the consumers.
While I like Henry Cavil, I don't feel like they have written anything worth a crap since he started playing Supes.
Non of the movies he was in felt like Superman.
@@pweddy1 You didn't understand what I meant,but it's because of my bad english unfortunately.
I am not saying at all,that someone wrote a crapy script involving Henry Cavill.
Cavill created an iconic Superman and Hollywood don't like that at all.
But of course it's my personal opinion !
Good move! Like in sports being a good GM means understanding what talent you do have and don't have. The worst moves are often letting go of a player who ends up being a star on another team. And everyone knew had they given them a better atmosphere they could have thrived.
I loved Man of Steel, it made me really look forward to the DCEU, unfortunately everything went downhill from there. As for Superman killing Zod, I thought it was important for this movie and for the character building of Superman/Kal-El/Clark. By far the best movie in the DCEU.
the man from uncle was really good. super underrated.
I’m excited. Henry Cavil is my Superman, just like I have a James Bond…
Ok now get Ray Fisher, and Zack Snyder back. At that point just make the Rock the studio head!
Snyder fans been telling this for years but everyone told them to shut up lmao they just keep getting right
Henry cavill will never be beaten for superman he's the best
At this point... WB should REALLY start listening 👀 doing it their way is what destroyed it, Zack Snyder & Dwayne Johnson along with other huge talents and well know figures are saving the DCEU right now the fans didn't want this to end and it should continue after Zack's JL cut was released as it fixed everything and right now fans just want the flash movie out and to continue as the potential for the DCEU is high right now given how much love has gone into trying to restore and make it better
I would give anyother director a chance other than Snyder 👀 since he has been there and done that for better or for worse it didn't workout.
@@Khader1093 what are you talking about it did so much better and set up greater things going forward
Yeah. It still doesn't make any sense of why they.. if the script was bad to them fine. Find or hire another script writers and directors but not keeping Henry as Superman knowing fans are saying "wtf are they doing?" Them not letting him nor the other cast back was the issue. They didn't want Snyder's cast which to me were a great cast. I still don't understand it. You all really didn't clarify. Maybe the concept of DC comics and what's it's truly about, that have alot of people uncomfortable may have to do with the fact of religious beliefs. WB tried to water it down as much as possible. The old wanted to appease the children when reality it's really for mature audiences. DC is dark and gritty gods involvement with humanity. These characters are taken from culture of religion and I believe that's the reason. They didn't want nothing to do with it. That's why we kept getting Batman and joker films to last for decades those were bearable. Marvel is more acceptable because my opinion it's more of genetic mutation, birth defects, chemical accidents, and science experimentation. That's why they kept pumping Marvel movies down our throats. They're more flexible, and acceptable to deal with. They can spin it unlike DC characters. That's my opinion.
Another thing that confuses me is the DC animated movies are really good so why aren’t those writers not writing the scripts for the DCEU?
very good point. Take good story lines from the comics and adapt them. That's it. That's what you do.
old WB leaders were morons for dumping Cavil, and for making shitty DC movie variants.
Completely agreed. Blaming the actors for their own greed and stupidity.
It's about time they get past the red tape and listen to the people. We are the ones who buy the tickets
Ugh. Old regime at WB was being narrow minded and it sounds like in their rush to get away from snyderverse they tried to bin a solid actor in a great role. Cavill has been really strong in the Snyder films, but I think that we haven’t yet sen his best performance in this role.
one of the problems DC did was they didn't make it perfectly clear that lex luthor in that movie was lex luthor Jr. I knew it from the get-go but tremendous amount of people kept thinking it's the original lex luthor Superman's main nemesis. but it wasn't it was his kid which Jesse played a perfect version of Alexander Luther Jr
@@freddiemac327 absolutely, what did they think he meant when the senator said that his name is on the Marquee. And Junior said no that's my father he's the lex before the corp. If you're a fan everybody know lex's father is Lionel. Not to mention a newspaper at the end of the movie that Perry white reads says that lex luthor senior is presumed dead due to a accident.
You know what? For me the one and only reason that I love the entire DC just because of Henry Cavill.
