During a fan meet and greet during the promotions of Justice League, the British actor asked the fans who they thought would win in a DC and Marvel showdown. While Marvel fans’ cheers were faint, the room burst into cheers when he said, “Make some noise if you think DC will win.” Dressed in a simple red shirt and jeans and wearing a baseball cap Henry Cavill looked pleased with the reaction. He nodded and slapped his thigh clearly in approval. Meanwhile, beside him, his fellow costar, Aquaman’s Jason Momoa, got a little carried with the cheers!

The rumors first started when Marvel revealed their plans for Phase 6, which involved Fantastic Four. Many believed that Marvel approached the actor to play Reed Richards, although John Krasinski had already made an appearance as Reed in the Doctor Strange sequel. According to the latest rumor, he is set to enter the MCU as the villain. Apparently, Marvel has cast the actor as Hyperion, the evil Superman of Marvel in Loki season 2! 

These are still rumors until the official announcement, but would you feel betrayed by the actor’s changing loyalties if this were to be true?
