It is no secret that comedian ebook initiatives are in all places, with a variety of shared universes competing on the field workplace. The DCEU (which is streaming with a Max subscription) has ended, however actors like Henry Cavill stay synonymous with their roles. Whereas there’s been a longstanding rivalry between DC and Marvel, Shang-Chi actor Simu Liu recalled assembly Cavill on trip in Las Vegas, and his story is touching
A number of the finest Henry Cavill films come from his time as Superman, and followers have been bummed that he will not be again for the creating DCU’s first chapter Gods and Monsters. Regardless, it is good to listen to what a stand-up man Cavill is, together with Liu’s candy story about assembly him. In a video from Fan Expo Canada’s Instagram, the Kim’s Comfort star shared his expertise, providing:
I obtained up and I type of went over and I used to be like ‘Hello. I do not know if you already know who I’m however I simply wished to say I am an enormous fan of you.’ And it is like a type of issues, he wraps me up in a bear hug. He is like ‘Dude after all I do know who you might be. You are the very best!’ Possibly I am embellishing at this level. He stated quite a lot of good issues. After which he came to visit and launched himself to the entire desk, so all of my mates.
How candy is that? Whereas Simu Liu was initially nervous to interrupt Henry Cavill’s dinner, maybe the Vegas cocktails gave him some braveness. And ultimately, the previous Witcher actor was type not solely to his fellow superhero, however to Liu’s mates as nicely.
Getting any such love and compliments from Henry Cavill was little doubt affirming for Liu, who was clearly an enormous fan of the 41 year-old actor. However that is not the one method that Cavill made his day. As Shang-Chi himself continued:
After our meal I went to ask for the examine and the waiter was like ‘Mr. Cavill has taken are of your invoice.’ In order that’s my very true Henry Cavill story.
Discuss a category act. Clearly Liu did not want his invoice picked up, however that is simply one other candy gesture that Cavill prolonged to his fellow actor. And whereas his time as Superman is completed, he is nonetheless a hero to many.
Ever since seeing Shang-Chi‘s credit scenes, followers have been questioning when Simu Liu would possibly pop up in an upcoming Marvel film. There’s been no actual information on that entrance, though followers are assuming he’ll issue into Avengers: Doomsday. And because the Barbie actor’s star energy continues to develop, I ponder if the roles will reverse and he’ll make the day of one other up-and-coming actor similar to Cavill did.
The subsequent MCU film hitting theaters is Captain America: Courageous New World on February 14th. For now, examine the 2025 film launch dates.
