January 5, 2016: Henry Cavill on Going From "Man of Steel" to "Batman v Superman"

Cineplex Magazine In an interview featured within the January 2016 edition of Cineplex Magazine, Henry Cavill discusses the process of taking Superman from where he left off in "Man of Steel" to where we find him in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice".

    "The reception of my first Superman movie, from what I've read, was fairly mixed," the English actor says via phone from New York. "Everyone I've spoken to enjoyed the movie, but [not] unlike if you're going to meet a stranger in the street, they're not going to badmouth you to your face. There's no intentional move, I don't think, in Batman v Superman to address any issues that people had with Man of Steel. It's just a continuation of that storyline and they continue to develop that world and introduce new characters." Cavill adds that, perhaps more than world-building, he's excited to explore new aspects of his brooding, conflicted, Earth-saving alien.

    "I think maybe people may look down on some popular culture stuff, but they're actually very complicated and interesting characters," he says. "Superman especially, he's just wonderfully rich and one of those things, for me, that's just enjoyable to play. There's so far you can go with it; if you really, really delve deep into the character, there's so much you can do. It's just about exploring it within the vehicles and finding what you want to do. He's going to have some very interesting character development in this one."
