It was announced last week that J.J. Abrams working on reboot “Superman“(Superman), and everything goes to the fact that Of a man of steel played by a black actor. However, the chief editor of the portal Geekosity Mikey Sutton advises not to bury the actor Henry Cavill ahead of time.
Man of black steel
how reported edition Deadline, J.J. Abrams and Hannah Minghella will produce a new film about the Man of Steel under their label Bad robot… Working on the script for the film Ta-Nahasi Coates, who is notorious for his racist statements about “white supremacism” and so on.
Reporters stressed that Henry Cavill is still interested in retaining his role as an alien from Krypton. But Coates’ appointment to the screenwriting and the fact that Abrams did not fill the director’s chair suggest that the new Superman will be played by a black actor. Sources of The hollywood reporter only confirmed the interest of WarnerMedia management in such a development of events.
It is interesting that the main hero of the new film may not be at all Clark Kent… According to preliminary data, in the reboot from Abrams will appear Black Superman from Earth-23 – President of the United States Calvin Ellisthat the writer came up with Grant Morrison and artist Doug Munke (they were inspired Barack Obama).
The main candidate is considered Michael B. Jordan, who promoted a similar project back in 2019. Then the initiative was not implemented, but now everything has changed, given the latest socio-political trends in the United States. Portal source Giant Freakin Robot said that Jordan is considered the main candidate for the role of Superman. But the editor-in-chief Small Screen Edward Lauder writes that John Boyega called an alternative…
Jordan remains a highly sought after actor. Recently, a trailer for the film with his participation was presented “Without pity“(Without remorse), which is based on the works Tom Clancy… Additionally, Michael B. Jordan is gearing up to direct his film. “Creed 3” (Creed 3).
John Boyega recently received “Golden globe“. Apparently, he also got along with JJ Abrams, who previously worked on”Star Wars“(Star Wars). However, the actor had previously complained about racial discrimination on the set of the new trilogy from Disney…
Cavill Schrödinger’s
Henry Cavill’s status cinematic universe dc is still questionable. Writer and Blogger Grace Randolph, which was one of the first to report on the resurrection “Justice League Zach Snyder“(Zack Snyder’s Justice League) revealed that actor Henry Cavill would no longer return to the role of Superman. She stated about the conflict between the studio and the actor, who allegedly does not understand the modern rules of the game in Hollywood.
Randolph also mentioned problems on the set of the movie “Shazam!“(Shazam!), in which a stunt double in a Superman costume appeared instead of Cavill. Allegedly, the actor asked for too much money for his appearance, and after the incident, WarnerMedia thought about rebooting the Man of Steel.
A different opinion was voiced by the chief editor of Geekosity Mikey Sutton. His sources said that Henry Cavill may still return to the role of Superman. The main problem lies in the leadership of WarnerMedia, which has never been able to create a competitive analogue. cinematic universe…
Many people rightly blame the failure of the MCU Zach Snyder, serving as an architect. However, most of the responsibility lies with the studio, which puts pressure on the director.
Suffice it to say that initially Snyder planned to make five films, but he was forced to abandon the sequel. “Of a man of steel“(Man of steel), resulting in a chaotic “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice“(Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice). AND “Justice League“(Justice league) were planned to be divided into two parts. How it all ended, everyone knows very well: Zack Snyder, broken by the death of his daughter, resigned, and the revised version of the League from Joss Widan turned out to be a disastrous nightmare.
Now at WarnerMedia they try to stick to the old approach, when superhero films are not related to each other. And the concept of the multiverse, which will be presented in the upcoming film about “Flash“(The flash) is a handy tool for any kind of crossover, allowing two versions of the Man of Steel to coexist.
Henry Cavill’s career is currently at its peak. He also has strong support from a good friend. Dwayne “The Rocks” Johnson… The latter allegedly agreed to star in the film “Black Adam“(Black adam) in the expectation that his character in the future will enter into confrontation with the Man of Steel performed by Cavill. The interests of the two actors are represented by the producer Dani Garcia, who is a business partner and ex-wife of The Rock.
Snyder factor
The long-awaited release of “Justice League of Zach Snyder”, which is considered the flagship exclusive of the streaming service, will take place on March 18 HBO Max… The plight of the project is known to many fans of the DC Cinematic Universe, although you need to understand that the director had a lot of opponents.
The decision to resurrect Snyder Cut came from the management of the conglomerate. AT&Twho owns Warner Bros. Pictures… Many of the studio’s top managers dreamed of burying the original version of Snyder, which is proof of their blatant incompetence. As for the opinion of fans, Hollywood studios have not been interested in it for a long time, which cannot be said about the bigwigs from AT&T, who are guided by the requests of a wide audience, hoping to make money.
In the past few months, strange gestures have been observed around the project. It looks like WarnerMedia is trying to pull some of the attention away from Justice League as HBO Max is also slated to premiere late March. “Godzilla vs. Kong“(Godzilla vs. Kong)… And the news about the Superman reboot and the search for a new actor was published by the media extremely “successfully” in order to send a signal to fans that Snyder’s vision was finally sent to the trash heap.
There is also an alternative opinion, according to which the company is not very confident that a single project will be able to attract sufficient attention from the outside. HBO Max is losing streaming war and single release in late December “Wonder Women: 1984“(Wonder Woman 1984) many consider it a failure, because in cinemas the tape Patty Jenkins raised only about $ 35 million. It is possible that the management of WanerMedia is simply trying to maintain a constant level of interest in their streaming service.
According to Mikey Sutton, if Zach Snyder’s Justice League is successful, the director will be allowed to take on new projects. Two projects are named: “Killing joke“(The killing joke), wherein Jared Leto will play Joker, and even “Man of Steel 2“, in which Henry Cavill will return to the role of Superman. But insiders warn that both projects could be exclusively exclusive to HBO Max.
We should also mention the project “World elite“(World’s finest), in which Cavill’s company should be Batman performed by Ben Affleck… Cavill is also ready for episodic appearances in other superhero films, which is exactly what Dwayne Johnson, who dreams of an epic battle between Superman and Black Adam, needs.
For his “Justice League” Zach Snyder will not receive a cent, although the completion of the tape had to spend about $ 70 million. But she may well launch a new wave of hype, because the film, instead of a full-fledged ending, will offer viewers … a cliffhanger.
Therefore, one should not unequivocally put an end to Henry Cavill’s prospects in the DC MCU. However, his prospects are directly related to the success of Zach Snyder’s magnum opus.
The Zach Snyder Justice League movie will be released on March 18 via HBO Max. In Russia it will be possible to watch it on the day of the premiere on the streaming service “Kinopoisk HD“.
