While comic book movie veteran Michael B. Jordan has been floated as an option, we’ve plucked out four other performers who we think would be up to the task of playing Superman on the big screen, possibly replacing Henry Cavill as the Man of Steel in the DC Extended Universe.
The DC Extended Universe now finds itself in a position that every franchise dreads.
One of its biggest stars — Superman himself, Henry Cavill — is exiting his contract, and it will soon initiate the search for a replacement.
Nowadays it’s actually kind of hard to find a popular and talented actor under 35 who doesn’t already have a superhero role/franchise — but they do exist, and it’s an interesting crop.
