Warner Bros. Speculated To Replace Henry Cavill With Michael B. Jordan As Superman

Warner Bros. have been rumoured to be anticipating casting Black Panther star actor Michael J. Jordan as Superman, following the departure of Henry Cavill after talks broke down between him and the studios.
The Briton who starred in the role for the first time in 2013's Man Of Steel, had the role forfeited after falling out of contract over securing a role in upcoming superhero film Shazam! which is due to premiere next year in April which Warner failed to yield to because of dispute of scheduling.
However, the exiting actor has sealed a deal to star in Netflix series The Witcher, a role which insiders have blamed led to the breakdown in talks between his reps and DCEU.
There has not been any confirmation on casting Michael Jordan as the new actor to don the cape Cavill left off, but as reported by L.A Times, recently the Black Panther star joined the studio to launched a new policy on diversity and inclusion. That, invariably may have fuel the speculation of The Creed actor to have been shortlisted for the role.
