American magazine The Hollywood Reporter wrote, “The sunsetting of Cavill’s time as Superman was the clearest indication yet that Gunn and Safran are mounting a substantial overhaul of DC, a reboot that will cut significant, if not most, ties to the previous regimes that handled DC movies for Warner Bros.”
The American magazine also added, “Cavill also shot a cameo in The Flash, one of four DC movies set to release in 2023, but sources say that cameo, along with that of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, is now being cut given that the studio chose to not go forward with director Patty Jenkins’ version of Wonder Woman 3.”
Rumors of Cavill’s cameo started to spread even before James Gunn’s announcement after the same was not included in a recent test screening.
The Flash is meant to be The DC Extended Universe’s 13th film. The initial date of the release of the film The Flash was on March 23, 2018. But, after multiple delays caused due to the setbacks of post-production, the change of directors, and the pandemic COVID-19, the film is finally set to be released in the theatres of the United States on June 16, 2023.
