Along with becoming Geralt of Rivia, Henry Cavill earned a name as Superman as well. His die-hard fans had been waiting to see more of Man of Steel only to get their hearts broken by James Gunn’s decision. However, amidst the search for the new Man of Steel, fans revisited the British actor’s Superman to discuss a surprising aspect.

James Gunn has eyes on a few actors to play Clark Kent in his upcoming DC movie. In the meantime, some fans cannot keep themselves from speaking about how Cavill’s Superman never actually made them believe Clark Kent and Superman were completely distinct entities.

Jonathan and Martha Kent raised Clark among humans. Although from his early childhood days, Clark noticed the differences that made him different from the humans. However, after fully recognizing his abilities and knowing his truth, Clark managed to stay hidden in the world of humans. These two personalities of an individual were extremely opposed to each other.

Fans noticed how the Enola Holmes actor could not distinguish the difference between these two. Recently, a picture of Cavill as Clark Kent resurfaced, and the discussion reignited. Fans have their own opinions about it.

Fans think Henry Cavill could not portray the difference between Clark Kent and Superman

Obviously, it was Kent’s alter ego who was extremely different from his human-like self. Therefore, to be able to distinguish between the two distinct personalities should have been on the screen quite visibly, as fans discussed. However, while discussing the differences, some fans blamed it on Zack Snyder and his take on the DC superhero. Others shared how Christopher Reeve portrayed Superman and Clark Kent with merely his body language and his voice only.

Fans also talked about how the 40-year-old could have done it if he had a powerful script. While some people also argued that it was never a focal point for the film. Fans also appreciated Christopher Reeve’s portrayal of the DC hero. And others expressed their hope for a better adaptation of the Kryptonian in the upcoming DC movie as well.

While most fans were pointing out the discrepancy in Cavill’s portrayal in Clark Kent, one user explained why there was this difference.

Although this discussion took place years after the release of Man of Steel, and the English actor got a lot of recognition for his portrayal in the film.
