Henry Cavill Superman

Henry Cavill is the most recent – and of course the current – movie incarnation of Superman. The British actor first took on the role of the Kryptonian hero in 2013’s Man of Steel.
He is set to reprise the role this year in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice when, as the title would suggest, he will face off against Batman – played by Ben Affleck – before joining forces with the Dark Knight and other heroes to face a common foe and form the Justice League.
Cavill looks like being the cinematic Superman for years to come, as the people behind the DC Extended Universe have plans up to at least 2020. He will need to up his game after his first performance if he wants to become anywhere near as iconic as Christopher Reeve in the role, however.
