Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld gives his stamp of approval as the best DC movie to this Henry Cavill starrer directed by Zack Snyder.

Not Ryan Reynolds’ Green Lantern but This Henry Cavill Starrer Is &#8216;Deadpool&#8217; Creator Rob Liefeld’s Favorite DC Movie

Deadpool has become the talk of the town as of late. The character notably
famous for its mouthed antics and hilarious fourth wall breaks is returning to
the big screen with Marvel Studios’ Deadpool 3. Meanwhile the character’s
creator, Rob Liefeld, recently opined on his favorite DC movie of all time. And
let’s just say he is truly unbiased as he did not pick Ryan Reynolds
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds/] but sided with the now superhero
under-dog, Henry Cavill [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/].

It seems like Liefeld’s ability to stir a plot twist is not restricted to
larger-than-life superhero movies and also shines in his personal preferences.


WHAT IS DEADPOOL CREATOR ROB LIEFELD’S FAVORITE DC FLICK?

In a recent tweet, Rob Liefeld vetted his coveted vote for the best DC movie as
of yet for him to Zack Snyder’s 2013 movie Man Of Steel. The director’s DC
debut, which kick-started his vision for the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) was a
critical divisor. The movie featured Henry Cavill in a serious and gritty tone.
The red-caped superhero divided fans and critics in this flick as certain
sections loved the portrayal while others stated that it departed from the
light-hearted nature they were used to.

Liefeld’s tweet comes at a time when his own character, Deadpool, is touching
highs while his favorite DC movie is at a contrasting odd. At one end of the
spectrum, when Deadpool 3 is gearing up to be one of Hollywood’s biggest flicks

DC’s Superman is under reinvention. Regardless, it stands clear that the iconic
take on Superman by Henry Cavill struck a chord with Rob Liefeld, which is an
achievement in itself.

Cavill is no longer a part of the universe, much to the dismay of fans. But the
retirement of the Man of Steel actor is not the only aspect of Gunn’s Superman
that fans are against.


JAMES GUNN IS REBOOTING THE DC UNIVERSE, SIDELINING HENRY CAVILL AND MAN OF
STEEL’S ORIGINAL VISION

When it comes to comic book film-making, fans tend to idolize the actors who
bring to life their favorite characters. Such was the case with Henry Cavill.
While critics were at odds with Zack Snyder’s style of filmmaking, it was
undeniable that Cavill essayed the assigned role with perfection. That was until
James Gunn decided to pass the torch to a younger actor

 Gunn also parted ways with equally beloved Batman actor, Ben Affleck while Gal
Gadot from Zack Snyder’s original Trinity stays behind to reprise her role in an
upcoming threequel. As such, with little to no details about the future of the
franchise, fans can hardly do anything but wait.
