Extended Universe as Superman as the reason behind his exit from the Netflix
[https://www.netflix.com/browse] show. There are also strong rumors about the
actor having creative differences from the producers and the director.
Meanwhile, his interview from last month is going viral on social media. It is
believed that in the segment that aired before the major announcement, Henry
Cavill [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/] subtly hinted at his exit.

HENRY CAVILL WAS NOT HAPPY WITH HIS ROLE

Speaking to Josh Horowitz, Henry Cavill discussed his work ethic and mindset
about different projects. The Man of Steel actor reckoned that it is important
to have a belief in the work you are doing as an actor. 



“If you believe what you’re doing is the right thing then you’ll be able to keep
on doing it. It’s also important to know that if you realize you’re doing the
wrong thing, that’s when you stop doing the wrong thing. You don’t just keep
going just because that leads down a dark path,” Cavill said in the YouTube
video.

The Witcher fans are linking this statement by Cavill to the rumors of him
having creative differences with the team. It is believed that the 39-year-old
was not happy with how the show was progressing. He was not seeing eye-to-eye
with the producer regarding the future development of his character Geralt of
Rivia.

the show following the second season. The actor felt that the Geralt of Rivia
was drifting away from what was written in the books.
