Henry Cavill’s Superman is no more.

Judging from the way Henry Cavill left The Witcher and made a rather momentous cameo appearance in Black Adam, it very much seemed like the Man of Steel actor was getting ready to get back to playing Superman for Warner Bros. Discovery.

But according to a post on Cavill’s Instagram, those plans have been unexpectedly canceled as the studio’s moving forward with a new Superman film written by DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn. There’s currently no director attached, but Gunn tweeted that the movie will focus on a younger version of the character, and added that Cavill might still appear in future DC Studios projects.

Warner Bros. reportedly canceled an unannounced Batman Beyond movie.

First Batgirl and now this? According to The Hollywood Reporter, the live-action Batman Beyond spin-off would’ve had Michael Keaton reprise his role as an elderly Bruce Wayne and might’ve even featured an appearance by Catwoman.

It’s been a rough year for Batfans, but at least the directors of the rumored film didn’t get the chance to start filming (although Christina Hodson reportedly did start writing the screenplay).

Here’s the first movie poster for Blue Beetle.

While we still haven’t gotten an official look at Xolo Maridueña as Blue Beetle, the film’s first poster gives us an idea of what to expect.

It shows off the bright-colored (and very shiny) alien scarab that attaches to Blue Beetle (aka Jaime Reyes), granting him ultra-strong armor and a set of superhuman abilities, such as strength, speed, and flight.
