Cavill’s Epic Switch: From Superman to Wolverine Shows His Range and DCEU’s Missed Potential

You wouldn’t believe it, butHenry Cavill, who wowed us as Superman for a decade, almost had us gagging with his Wolverine transformation. TheMan of Steelswapped his red briefs for adamantium claws, and let’s just say, he absolutely crushed it.

In a candid conversation withJosh Horowitz, directorShawn Levyrevealed how committed Henry Cavill was to hisDeadpool & Wolverinecharacter ‘Cavillrine’. The 41-year-old actor went all-in—from physical strain to smoking cigars for hours. Talking about the English actor’s full-on method acting, Levy revealed:

I remember he was so committed I mean he was jacked up and he had that disgusting cigar in his mouth for hours, and he was fully in it. I think he might have gotten sick to his stomach.

Cavill’s switch from Superman to Wolverine is a wild showcase of his versatility and passion, showing he’s a true comic book chameleon. But it’s a mixed feeling because many believe the DCEU and DCU studios wasted Cavill’s potential.

Cavill’s caption?“To be safe, I shaved the mustache off for this one. Just the mustache.”Mic drop. That’s a not-so-subtle dig at DC, where his Superman look was always clean-shaven. With this cameo, Cavill officially joined the Marvel family.

After getting the boot as Superman, this Wolverine role is a major win. Whether he’ll stick around in the MCU remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure: Hollywood’s biggest players are lining up to work with this guy.
