But the gates have been reopened for DC fans to finally enjoy a standalone Superman movie, and they’ve got Henry Cavill back!

Warner Bros. Are Finally Starting Work On Man Of Steel 2

It took Warner Bros. nine-long years to finally confirm a sequel to the much-awaited sequel to Zack Snyder’sMan of Steel.

While questions have been raised over Zaslav’s tenure as President of Warner Bros. Discovery, its no doubt that a move to bring back Superman, and that too with Henry Cavill reprising his role, is also an attempt to gain some redemption for all the problems and controversies surrounding WB for the last few months.
