5 Signs DC Is Secretly Developing A Superman TV Show

5. Henry Cavill Is Trapped In The Phantom Zone

There are no current plans for the DCEU film version played by Henry Cavill to appear again. His representatives have expressed his interest in returning, but WB’s official response adhered to CIA level vagueness neither confirming or denying anything. So for now he is sentenced to the same cinema Purgatory as Ben Affleck's Batman; unlikely to ever be seen again, but not allowed to officially retire.

The lengthy time frame for making films means with nothing in the works, even if WB did negotiate with Cavill, it will be at least several years before Superman flies into cinemas. That is too long to bench their flagship character.
