The old DC Universe is breathing its last breaths. It has been decided for some time that the days of the series characterized by Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot are numbered. Only one more film from the era opens in cinemas and then it’s over.
Man of Steel is on TV at an almost poetic time. The reinvention of Superman (director Zack Snyder, actor Henry Cavill) began in 2013 – almost exactly 10 years ago! – everything. Find out in this article where you can watch Man of Steel and who will bring the end of the “DC Extended Universe” (DCEU).
Where it all began: That’s what Man of Steel with Henry Cavill is about
Man of Steel is still Henry Cavill’s to this day only pure solo film as Superman, which made his departure last year all the more painful. His first article reopens the story of Superman from the beginning: placed in an escape capsule by his biological parents on the planet Krypton, the interplanetary refugee spends his youth with his surrogate parents Martha (Diane Lane) and Jonathan (Kevin Costner) in the US. Kansas State. But when General Zod (Michael Shannon) wants to subjugate the Earth, his past catches up with the Man of Steel.
Everything ends in 5 days with this DC film
14 real DCEU films have been made since 2013. The last one will be Aquaman: Lost Kingdom. When Jason Momoa’s second adventure ends in cinemas, the new era under James Gunn begins. The director of The Suicide Squad should give the superhero universe a more stringent line – and at the same time promote directing voices.

So Jason Momoa turns out the lights in the DCEU: His blockbuster will be released in cinemas on December 21, 2023. It’s almost a tradition: the film was made in a chaotic production. Its launch was postponed several times. The unexpected result: In the future it can call itself the “last DCEU film”. The quality almost doesn’t matter again.
