July 2, 2020: Henry Cavill Talks About All Those Superman Rumors

On today's episode of the Variety and iHeart podcast "The Big Ticket," Henry Cavill spoke about his life in lockdown due to COVID-19, his role as Geralt on "The Witcher," and all those rumors surrounding his return to the role of Superman.

Will you go back to playing Superman again? I googled right before we talked, because I needed the latest rumor. It is just rumor, after rumor, after rumor. What's the wildest one you've heard about you and Superman?

They get wilder and wilder by the day. The amount of speculation, the stuff I read on the Internet, is extraordinary and sometimes frustrating. It's when you see people stating stuff as fact. Like, "No, that's not the case. That hasn't happened, and that conversation isn't happening." But the important thing is that people are excited about it, and I think it's important to be excited about a character like Superman. Superman is a fantastic character. If people are chatting about it, and even if they're making stuff up, it's okay, because that means they want to see the character again. And in an ideal world, I would absolutely love to play the character again.

Do you ever leave a comment on a rumor online using an alias?

I'm not going to lie; I've been very tempted, but there's something about that, that feels deeply immoral. When it's about Superman, and if I'm representing Superman, it just feels like the wrong thing to do. I'm just going to let this all play out. Me saying something isn't going to make a difference. What does it really matter? One day, people will know the truth, and if they don't know it now, it's okay.
