Henry Cavill has left the realm of superheroes and monsters months ago. Still, if anyone says the word Superman his image instantly flashes in front of the eyes.

About six months ago, Cavill sat down with Cinemablend’s Sean O’Connell to promote Enola Holmes 2. During the conversation, the host asked about his feeling about the John Williams’ score playing in the background during his cameo in Black Adam. In his response, the actor stated that it is of utmost significance to the character because it resonated with him.
“A large portion of the world who hears that will recognize it immediately as Superman and feel a certain way about it,” he said. While he was all praises for Williams’ score, the Immortals star also praised Hans Zimmer’s Man of Steel and how exhilarated he felt watching the first trailer.
Moving onto his cameo, the 39-year-old said it was an amazing experience to wear the suit again for his cameo in Black Adam. Alas, nobody knew that his return as Superman in Black Adam was the last time he wore that suit. At this time, fans might be thinking that there is nothing left to see from his superhero. However, the never-seen-before pictures shared by Zack Snyder might just prove many people wrong.
