Henry Cavill posted a cryptic video on his Instagram Wednesday evening following the multiple reports of he and Warner Bros. parting ways for any future Superman installments or cameos.
The video on Cavill’s Instagram shows him in front of the camera wearing a shirt that reads “Krypton Lifting Team” with music in the background while he slowly lifts up a Superman figure to the beat of the music, and then lowers it back down as the video ends.
Warning: FULL SPOILERS follow for the Castle Rock Season 1 finale, titled “Romans.”
Hulu’s Castle Rock had a difficult task in its first season to create a compelling new narrative, while also adhering to the worldbuilding guidelines laid out by Stephen King’s numerous bestselling novels. If you’re telling a story in the Kingverse, it had better feel like one of author’s stories, and for most of the season, creators Sam Shaw and Dustin Thomason accomplished their mission with few missteps. Sadly, the show doesn’t stick the landing in the Season 1 finale, titled “Romans.”
Castle Rock was at its best this season when it found ways to balance its excellent character development with all of the Kingian jargon about schismas, the Voice of God and alternate realities. Episode 7, “The Queen,” was a prime example of everything neatly coming together, as the writers crafted a poignant story about a time-traveling superhero named Ruth (Sissy Spacek). For a deeper look into the finale and what it all means, check out the video below.

At today’s Apple Special Event, Apple announced the Apple Watch Series 4.
The Series 4 watch will come in two sizes, 40mm and 44mm, that both feature screens that are “over 30 percent larger” than previous Apple Watches, with the screen now going completely to the edges of the watch. There have been minimal changes to the overall case size, but it’s thinner and has less total volume than the Series 3.
It includes a digital crown that is reenginered with haptic feedback that gives physical clicking sensations while scrolling and a speaker that is 50 percent louder than previous watches.
Apple Watch Series 4 will begin at $399 US for the GPS model, and $499 US for the cellular equipped model. The Series 3 line will now start at $279. Orders for the Apple Watch Series 4 begin this Friday, and shipping starts on September 21. The Series 4 GPS will be available in 26 markets at launch, and cellular in 16 markets with 34 carriers. WatchOS 5 will become available on September 17.
We’re just a few delicate days away from WWE’s Hell in Cell “Pay Per View Event Streaming Exclusively on the WWE Network” and while everyone’s buzzing about Braun Strowman’s new stable, the Dogs of War (*chef kiss*), and his use of the entire RAW heel roster (his “Pack?”), and the fact that newly-permed Mick Foley will be the special guest ref for Braun’s Cell match with Roman Reigns, it’s easy to forget that there’s a second Cell match on the card.
Ideally, Hell in a Cell would only feature one Cell match, but with the brand split you can understand the need for other folks (from the over-shadowed Blue Brand) to get a chance to air their grievances inside Ol’ Celly. Having one Cell match, though, allows for it to feel a teensy bit more special while relieving some of the pressure to out-do and out-wow not only previous years, but also the other big Cell match on the same card.
Following today’s news that Henry Cavill is reportedly done with the role of Superman, Deadline reports that Warner Bros. has considered casting Michael B. Jordan in the role for future installments down the road.
Sources have reported that future Superman movies are several years out, but that Warner Bros. has been looking at different angles to take with future films, as they are aware the current DC universe has not seen the level of success with fans as they would like.
