Over the years, Warner Bros. has taken a number of innovative approaches to the DCEU film franchise. Examples include Shazam!, The Suicide Squad, and the Peacemaker television series, all of which have spent considerable effort developing their characters. Due to the fact that Michael Keaton will be taking over as Batman in the next flicks The Flash and Batgirl, we will see less of Ben Affleck‘s Batman. As a result, many DC Comics fans are wondering what may happen to other legendary characters, such as Superman.
The Kara Danvers version of the character, played by recently cast Supergirl actress Sasha Calle, will take over for Superman actor Henry Cavill as the DCEU’s only survivor of Krypton, according to our sources. In the new rebooted chronology, the Kryptonian villain Zod assassinates Cavill’s Superman while he is a baby.
What Warner Bros has in store for these characters in the future is still kept under wraps, but it seems that Henry Cavill will no longer be engaged with the DC Film Universe in any capacity as Superman. As such, fans should brace themselves for Sasha Calle’s ascension to the Supergirl mantle. The actress is due to star in the upcoming film The Flash, which will also return Michael Keaton as Batman for the first time in 20 years. The film will investigate the notion of other timelines, and as a consequence, it will “reboot” the DC Film Universe as a whole.
In the wake of this and Michael Keaton‘s return to the role of Batman, Warner Bros. seems to be taking a novel approach to the future of the Batman film franchise. Additionally, they’ve been working on other projects, like The Batman starring Robert Pattinson, in between these DCEU chapters. There’s a good chance we’ll see another Superman in the future, but Henry Cavill doesn’t seem like the most probable candidate. The Flash, due out next year, has the potential to provide all the answers we’ve been waiting for.
The Flash is slated to arrive on June 23, 2023
