Doom Patrol actor Matt Bomer suits up as Superman to replace Henry Cavill in the DC Extended Universe in a brand new piece of concept art.
The Superman artwork from Instagram user “Skull101ify” shows Matt Bomer in Henry Cavill’s Superman suit as seen in the DCEU films Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League. You can check out the fan art of Matt Bomer as Henry Cavill’s Superman successor below.
The cinematic future of Superman in the DCEU is currently in limbo, especially after last year’s report that Henry Cavill was unlikely to reprise his role as the Last Son of Krypton due to scheduling conflicts as well as Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Films looking to focus on solo outings for other characters like Supergirl. With Henry Cavill potentially out as Superman, many fans are looking for other actors to take over the role, and some believe that Matt Bomer would be a good fit.

Matt Bomer can be seen in the first season of Doom Patrol, which is avalable on the DC Universe streaming service. The series has been renewed for a second season, which is expected to premiere sometime in 2020.
Henry Cavill was last seen as Superman in Zack Snyder’s Justice League. Here’s the official synopsis for the movie:
Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Directed by Zack Snyder, Justice League stars Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Jason Momoa, Ray Fisher, Jeremy Irons, Diane Lane, Connie Nielsen, J. K. Simmons, and Ciarán Hinds.
Justice League is now available on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding Matt Bomer, Henry Cavill, Superman and the future of the DC Extended Universe.
