Henry Cavill’s uncertain future in the DCEU has been a subject of controversy for some time.

Christopher Reeve has taken up the torch of Superman in 1978. Since then, the people have been attached to his heroic and emblematic role. Fans of the Superman fandom have recently been criticized for their hypocrisy since the modern Superman i.e. Henry Cavill is not allowed to evolve properly as fans are hungover from the old Superman.

A Twitter user by the name of SincerelyBats pointed out that the blatantly hypocritical fans of the DC fandom had their thoughts regarding Henry Cavill as the new Superman.
Superman will never be allowed to evolve or change due to the inability of grown men to outgrow Superman ’78. https://t.co/4z6lQOBdml
