ChatGPT on Why Henry Cavill’s Departure Was Not the Best Plan For DC’s Future
Being distanced from DC films for a brief period after his 2017 DC film led many to believe thatHenry Cavillwould not be returning as Superman anymore, before Dwayne Johnson’sBlack Adam.Followed by his return, rumors also stated that the studio might be planning a sequel to his 2013 film, only forJames Gunnto ruin everything with his one announcement.
ChatGPT also had some interesting points when asked if the co-CEO made a mistake by kicking out theMission Impossible star.The AI chatbox stated that the studio could have followed up on fans’ demands and maintained the“continuity and familiarity”for fans and viewers who have been following the DCEU since the release of its first film.
“Henry Cavill’s portrayal of Superman has been well-received by fans, and bringing him back for future movies would provide continuity and familiarity for viewers. This would be especially important for fans who have invested in the character and the franchise over the years.”
It also stated that the 39-year-old actor has the“physique and the charisma”to embody the superhero perfectly and it was also one of the things that made him stand out.
“Henry Cavill’s physicality and imposing presence are key aspects of his portrayal of Superman. He has the physique and the charisma to embody the superhero, and this is a significant part of what makes his performance so compelling.”
Other than these initial responses ChatGPT also reasoned with why it would have been more suitable not only for the fans but also for the studio to continue with theDawn of Justicestar in the DCU.

Fans’ Support And the Unfinished Story Arc
The fact that DC fans are still rooting for Henry Cavill’s return as Superman is not hidden from ChatGPT either. The campaigns for restoring the Snyderverse have been going on since the release of the 2017 filmJustice League. And the AI chatbox also highlighted stated that the fans have been in support of theEnola Holmesactor’s return for years.
“Fans of Henry Cavill and the Superman character have shown their overwhelming support for the actor’s return to the role. This is evident from social media campaigns and petitions that have been launched to encourage the studio to bring him back.”
Bringing him back would not only fulfill the fans’ demand but would possibly be beneficial to the studio as well. And there is no doubt thatThe Tudorsstar would have again given an incredible performance.
“Henry Cavill has proven his acting chops in a variety of roles, and his portrayal of Superman has been praised for its emotional depth and complexity. He brings a humanity to the character that makes him relatable and empathetic, which is an essential aspect of the superhero’s appeal.”
One of the most significant things would have been to give the required arc to the character. Henry Cavill portrayed his DC character in several films, includingMan of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,andJustice League.Clark Kent, aka Superman’s story, was left unfinished due to the“studio’s restructuring”and DCU’s reboot.
“Henry Cavill’s portrayal of Superman was cut short due to the studio’s restructuring and the changing direction of the franchise. Bringing him back would provide an opportunity to continue his story arc and explore the character’s development further. This would be satisfying for fans who have invested in the character and his journey.”
ChatGPT’s response does seem reasonable as to why the studio could have continued with theNight Hunteractor for future DC movies. James Gunn could finish what Zack Snyder started with the 2013 film, considering that Snyder had plans to continue the story.
