Henry Cavill Wants to Focus on the ‘Future of Superman’
In a recent press tour for Netflix's The Witcher series, Henry Cavill revealed that he hasn't seen the Snyder Cut and doesn't know if one exists. He further elaborated that he'd love to see the cut if there is one, but would rather focus on the future of Superman instead of the past.
During his interview with Kevin McCarthy, Cavill said, "I have not seen any Snyder Cut – I don't know if there is anything that exists that is a Snyder Cut. I'm sure there is footage out there which has probably been pieced together over the years. I'm always interested to see how that stuff turns out, but that is very much a chapter of my past. I would rather talk about what is going to happen in the future – the future of Superman, how I can express that character from the comic books. Which, ties in nicely to Man of Steel, I really like that movie, and I'd like to be able to tell the story where it was left at that point."

Unreleased Spider-Man Game Discovered On Debug Wii Console
An unreleased prototype of Eurocom’s Spider-Man 4 game has been discovered on a debug Wii development kit, showing us what might have served as a tie-in game adaptation for Sam Raimi’s canceled 4th Spider-Man film.
In a YouTube video from Hard4Games, first reported by GamingAlexandria, the prototype shows off a number of unfinished environments and sequences from the game.
These include some inner city and downtown streets, some of which were used as areas to showcase special effects (gunshots, some sort of green ooze) while others show off Spider-Man’s swinging and wall-climbing abilities.
