With the recent news that Henry Cavill will unfortunately no longer be playing Superman, on top of his exit from The Witcher, I started thinking about the Mass Effect “script” he posted awhile ago; as well as when he said he would love to be in a project involving the IP.
Henry Cavill has played the original trilogy before, and could bring a lot of passion to the role that many others would not have. I think if the post he shared was true, and he has looked at a Mass Effect script, this could be a perfect opportunity for him to jump into the project. Only this time, I would pray to the Heavens that this man doesn’t get dragged through the mud by corporate suits the way he did with DC and The Witcher. Give the dude a break and let him bring an adaptation to life that doesn’t turn into a dumpster fire.
What do you think? Would you like to see Henry as Shepard in a Mass Effect adaptation of some sort? Or if they do go through with an adaptation, would you prefer someone else?
