Henry Cavill clears the air on the Superman rumors

It’s been back and forth in the entertainment news outlets about whether or not Henry Cavill will reprise the role of Superman in the DC Cinematic Universe. Cavill reportedly had a falling out with the studio behind the films, Warner Bros when he had to return to the set of ‘Justice League’ for reshoots which conflicted with his work on ‘Mission Impossible: Fallout’. Yeah, remember the weird CGI on his face to hide the mustache? Apparently he was not happy about that either, and since 2018 it seems he was no longer the big screen Superman but recently with director Zack Snyder getting to redo his ‘Justice League’ movie for HBO Max, Cavill has publicly stated his desire to play the character again.

Cavill cleared the air recently with Variety. 

“The amount of speculation, the stuff I read on the Internet, is extraordinary and sometimes frustrating,” Cavill said. “It’s when you see people stating stuff as fact. Like, ‘No, that’s not the case. That hasn’t happened, and that conversation isn’t happening.’”

“But the important thing is that people are excited about it, and I think it’s important to be excited about a character like Superman. Superman is a fantastic character. If people are chatting about it, and even if they’re making stuff up, it’s okay, because that means they want to see the character again. And in an ideal world, I would absolutely love to play the character again.”

So there is still hope he’ll dawn the red and blue a few more times, but it’s just confirmed or certain when that could happen.

 

Cult hit ‘Clone High’ is returning to MTV

MTV has been reviving a lot of it’s past recently with throwback content, Bevies & Butthead getting a reboot on a different channel, and today comes the news that an animated series from 2003 that developed a cult following is getting new life. ‘Clone High’, a wickedly funny show that saw famous names and historical figures cloned as horny emotional teenagers. AV Club confirmed Abraham Lincoln, Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, and John F. Kennedy will be in the resurrected show. 

Clone High’s creators Phil Lord, Chris Miller, and Bill Lawrence went on to success after the show’s single original season, working the ‘Lego’ films’ and the recent smash hit ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider Verse’. They come into 2020 with a greater acceptance of out-there animated shows like ‘Rick & Morty’, so we got to expect some real fun with this reboot. 

Nicktendo did an a retrospective video about ‘Clone High’ and how it left such an enduring mark on people who wanted see the common coming-of-age tale thrown into a blender with history. Oh, also if you are fan of ‘Scrubs’ watch this to see how it weaves in Easter eggs from CH.

Rooftops back in business for Cubs games

When baseball returns to Wrigley, the rooftops around the park will be open, though at 25% capacity. The Chicago Tribune quoted the GM of a rooftop venue as saying the city has greenlit operations, but with safety restrictions in place.

Mayor Lightfoot said in a statement, “As the rooftop patios overlooking Wrigley Field are also restaurants and taverns, they are included in this overarching guidance and must operate within the guidelines established by the city in coordination with public health guidance.”

Rooftop tickets will likely go on sale once the Cubs schedule is released, which is expected soon. The Ricketts family owns the majority of the area rooftops.
