According to The Post-Geek Singularity, Cavill's manager - who also works with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson - pointed out to studio bosses that a cameo role would have served as one of the actor's contractually obligated appearances. As a result, Cavill obviously wanted to be compensated appropriately, but former Warner Bros. Chairman Toby Emmerich didn't agree. Apparently, the executive said at the time that "'Henry Cavill is now persona non grata, he’s not gonna play ball with the studio? He will never be Superman again.'"

 

That seemingly trickled down through the rest of Warner Bros., as we recently heard ex-DC Films boss Walter Hamada similarly tried to block Cavill from playing Superman in Black Adam. 

 

Now, they're both gone, and the door is open to more Man of Steel on screen. Cavill only signed a one-off deal for Black Adam's post-credits scene, so his DCEU future remains somewhat up in the air. The new regime at Warner Bros. Discovery is said to be keen on bringing him back for supporting roles and a solo outing, likely in an effort to appease fans who have grown disillusioned with the struggling franchise.

Zimmer's Superman score is unmatched in the CBM genre. Sorry, not even The Avengers theme is that good.

Certainly John Williams Superman score is more iconic?

More iconic? Probably definitely, as it's been around for 35 years longer.

Guess who's back?!

What if someone guesses, "Zack Snyder"?

Wouldn't that be something, Cavill back as Superman with Snyder back in the director's chair.

The nice part about cleaning house is that the corporate egos that were blocking certain things out of spite rather than a business case will be gone. In the end, money talks and bull sh it walks................

Even in a producer role it would be nice to see.

Yup. I don't feel the need for Snyder to direct the MoS sequel, but IMO he needs to be involved, for consistency. The aesthetic consistency between MoS, BvS, and ZSJL is extremely attractive and entertaining.

Yes, we don't need another Luthor.

We need Otis, Miss Tessmacher and Gus Gorman.
