The British actor is reportedly in talks to return as Clark Kent in an upcoming DC Comics movie.

Henry Cavill made his first appearance as Superman in 2013's Man Of Steel. He later reprised his role in DC's Superman V Batman (2016) and Justice League (2017).

A DC fan's idea of justice: "If there's any justice in this world, Henry Cavill will return as Superman in the DCEU."

The 37-year-old actor, in an interview with Men's Health magazine in December, revealed that he isn't done with Superman duties yet. "The cape is still in the closet. It's still mine. I'm not going to sit quietly in the dark as all the stuff is going on. I've not given up the role. There's a lot I have to give for Superman yet. A lot of storytelling to do. A lot of real, true depths to the honesty of the character I want to get into. I want to reflect the comic books. That's important to me. There's a lot of justice to be done for Superman. The status is - you'll see," said Henry Cavill.
Fans also have Henry Cavill to thank for helping get Man Of Steel director Zack Snyder to finally release the long-awaited and clamoured for Snyder Cut of the movie.
Before Henry Cavill, the Superman cape has been worn by actors such as Christopher Reeve, Brandon Routh and Tom Welling.
DC Universe's films aside, Henry Cavill famously starred in Mission: Impossible - Fallout alongside franchise veteran Tom Cruise. He also featured in Netflix fantasy drama The Witcher.
