DC’s loss is about to become Marvel’s gain. After parting ways with Henry Cavill in favor of casting a new Superman to lead the DC Universe, Marvel Studios has swept in and is about to bring the former Man of Steel into the MCU — just not in the role that the internet might have had you believing at first.
Over the weekend, rumors began swirling online that Cavill was set to take on the role of the iconic supervillain Victor Von Doom, aka Doctor Doom. According to the rumors that were circulating online, Cavill was said to be set to make his debut as Doctor Doom in the upcoming Fantastic Four movie. One false report even went as far as citing Variety as a source for the news in a tweet that went viral and had Marvel fans in a frenzy. — Source: Bam Smack Pow
