James Gunn had the tough job of telling Henry Cavill he wouldn't be playing Superman in the new DC movie.
This was a tricky situation because there were prior agreements for a new Superman with a different actor in the lead role.
Cavill handled the news with maturity, requesting to make the announcement himself instead of Gunn doing it.
Gunn admitted it was a regrettable situation because of the unfairness to Cavill, but expressed a strong interest in future collaboration.
