Whether or not Henry Cavill is really done playing Superman (and it seems all but confirmed that he is), it’s obviously a guarantee that eventually, he’ll be replaced. Ever since Kirk Alyn first ran with the torch back in the 1940s, a very select club made up of some very talented actors have had the privilege of bringing the iconic hero to life, but who will be next after Cavill?
