Because Cyborg works best on a team then on his own
Iād go watch a Cyborg movie in a heartbeat, especially the version that was established in ZSJL.
Regarding the original post, very happy to see Cavill is close to a comeback.
Snyder gave Cyborg more purpose that made less a plot convenience and more like a tragic person who achieved god like abilities with Cybernetics.
If it was possible, Synder should come back now that the old guard of the DCEU is gone and write or direct a Cyborg film.
He seems to be busy with Army Of The Dead and Rebel Moon on Netflix. Iām a big fan of his DC work, but I am not a fan of the discourse surrounding it. Seems like itās either āNo one else can make a good DC movieā, or āYou donāt understand character X if you like his moviesā.
But I agree that itās that take on Cyborg that piqued my interest in the character. In the digital age we live in, having those abilities could make for some exciting and compelling stories. Also loved the characterization, āIām not broken, and Iām not aloneā was one of my low-key favorite moments in ZSJL.
Right away the new guys were clear they do not want Snyder.
Just give me Joker 2 and The Batman 2 . Thatās all Iām interested in. At this point Iāve lost all faith that these āannouncementsā turn into actual movies.
Same here.
Just give me The Batman 2 and the Joker 2.
As for the Henry Cavill news: yeah, I donāt care. I always thought that he was too short to play Superman to begin with, and never really got the appeal of him. But a lot of people online seem to like him, soā¦
What I am surprised about is that they are considering doing another movie with him.
If there was ever any doubt, I guess it goes to show that change in management means things can change.
The old bosses were done with Henry Cavill as Superman. And David Zaslav I guess is like, āLetās give it another tryā¦ maybe.ā
This is one of the things that I donāt agree with David Zaslav on.
Green lighting Joker: Folie Ć Deux I of course thought was great. Locking down Matt Reeves to do more Batman stuff I thought was great. Bringing back Henry Cavill to potentially do another Superman movie though seems kind of dopey to me. But heās the boss, soā¦
I say just reboot the whole thing and get another Superman, but whateverā¦
Anyway, a positive from the article for me is thisā¦
Superman, as well as Cavill, were not in the initial plans for Black Adam. The idea was hatched during a round of reshoots for the movie earlier this year, but the cameo was nixed by Hamada, the executive who for the last four years had tried hard to move DC beyond the era where one filmmaker, in this case Zack Snyder, had an inordinate amount of influence and could command an entire slate for years. Hamada had his own Superman plans, one of them being to introduce a Black Superman with a multidecade-spanning story by writer Ta-Nehisi Coates.
I was not aware that the Ta-Nehisi Coates Black Superman thing was a āmultidecade-spanning story.ā
Wow. Interesting.
Hopefully David Zaslav does give that the green light and the go-ahead. And just have Warner Bros. put it out like the Joker or whatever.
Have it be a one-off vanity project to get Oscar buzz; maybe even get lucky and maybe win something other than in the technical or special effects categories. And maybe if it makes some money do another one.
