Henry Cavill Agrees That The DC Movies Haven't Really Worked

In the DC Cinematic Universe, before there was Batman, Wonder Woman, a Suicide Squad or a Justice League, there was Superman. And now even he admits that mistakes have been made with the current slate of DC films. Image: Warner Bros.

By Superman, of course, we mean actor Henry Cavill. Cavill played Superman in Man on Steel, Batman v Superman and will also be in November's Justice League. He's as big a part of the DC Universe as anyone. And in an interview with The Rake (which isn't online but we independently verified), Cavill says the following about it:


That shouldn't be controversial, since Cavill is just stating some fairly obvious facts about the difference between how much money they have made versus how well they have been reviewed. It's always good to know that the people involved in these movies haven't buried their heads in the sand about the reaction to them. And yet, given the polarising reaction pretty much every film in the current DC movie universe save Wonder Woman has engendered, he might be facing some blow back, despite being entitled to his own opinion.

He then points to the most recent film, Wonder Woman, as a film that gives that sensation.


Cavill then wraps up his thoughts on DC:


Cavill isn't the only person in the universe to criticise it. Don't forget Gal Gadot's recent comments about Batman v Superman. We'll see soon enough if Wonder Woman really was the first in of many steps in the right direction when Justice League is released.
