The major speculations started in September 2018 after it was reported that Warner Bros. wants to end Cavill’s time as Superman. But after this, Superman made a cameo in Shazam!. In Shazam!, a body double was used to showcase Superman in the movie. In the cameo scene, we cannot see the face of Superman and we just see the symbol S, which stands for hope. This added to the rumours that Henry Cavill will not be returning as Superman. Later, the producer of Shazam, Peter Safran, clarified that Cavill didn’t do the Superman cameo because of a scheduling conflict.
