A mustache that can kill Superman!

CinemaCon just keeps delivering Superman news! Henry Cavill joked about his infamous Justice League mustache during the event.

The production of Justice League was one of the most chaotic in cinema history, being the beginning of the downfall of Zack Snyder’s DC Extended Universe. One of the most joked-about parts of it is Henry Cavill’s mustache. Having been filming Mission: Impossible – Fallout during reshoots for the project, Warner Bros. had to CGI his facial hair off for his scenes as Superman, leading to hilariously uncanny results.

Henry Cavill’s mustache in Justice League has been the butt of jokes from DC fans for over half a decade at this point. Now it seems even Cavill is getting some jabs in. During a recent appearance at CinemaCon, the former Superman actor commented on his changing facial hair, reminiscing on “a controversial mustache at one stage that nearly ruined my career.”

Henry Cavill’s future as a superhero

Even though Justice League flopped and DC has officially recast David Corenswet as Superman, that doesn’t mean Henry Cavill’s days as the Man of Steel are officially over. Director Matthew Vaughn has expressed interest in making a Red Son Elseworlds film starring the actor, giving him one last shot at the iconic role.

Henry Cavill also has prospects outside of DC and Superman. Recent rumors suggest that the actor is attached to a mystery role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While fans have speculated everything from Wolverine to Captain Britain, no official word has been said about the Justice League star potentially joining the MCU.

Superman is currently scheduled to hit theaters on July 11, 2025. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding the future of the DC Universe and make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for more content!
