Henry Cavill is the New Superman – PHOTOS

Superman is an epic fail compared to the Batman revamps. Let’s hope this attempt to breathe new life into the new films works.

Henry Cavill will star in the redo Superman movies. Zack Snyder announced that Henry will be the next to squeeze into blue tights and a cape.

“In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognized and revered character of all time, and I am honored to be a part of his return to the big screen. I also join Warner Bros., Legendary and the producers in saying how excited we are about the casting of Henry. He is the perfect choice to don the cape and S shield.”

You might recognize him from ‘The Hotness Hour with Jonathan Rhys Meyers’ aka ‘The Tudors.’ (I have no idea what happens in that show. All I hear are words, words, words, hotness, more words.) Warner Brothers is hoping that their choice will be a fresh start and less like their failed attempt at casting a Christopher Reeve lookalike in the first remake.

Via Deadline:

“He’s got an amazing quality. He doesn’t look too much like Reeve and Routh but he’s big and strong and he has a very modern feel to him,” a Warner Bros exec just told us. “We’re really going to try and make Superman as contemporary as possible.”
