    Probably sigh, shrug, watch it, hope he's better than last time, probably be disappointed when he once more turns in a divisive not iconic Superman performance.
    He's just not a good Superman, never will be, but he won't keep people away from the theater...probably.

    It's not like WB would ever let the like of Randolph, Walsh or place like 4chan or Reddit ruining such reveal.

    Surprise or not, either way, after BA in Oct., WBD or the people that made the movie will address the who's playing SM thing one way or another.

    Just wait their official statement.
    I had heard that it was either Supes there physically or a logo. If he’s there physically that’s something that has to be addressed. A logo they could always retcon to actually be referring to Supergirl despite it obviously intended to be Superman. But to have him there physically? Unless you want yet another DC post credit scene that goes nowhere, and if the Rock was able to get that in he intends to follow it up, then WB will have to address Superman’s status explicitly.

    I disagree but that is ok. I think Cavill was not given the right script and the right direction back then. I am no fan of Snyder for this reason.

    SM's logo is on his chest. I guess it referred to that.

    Btw, a male chest is different from a female's one, you know.

    Right, the logo was supposedly a holographic projection which is much more ambiguous. But you can’t mistake a Cavill stand in for Calle lol.

    There are multiple reports on this scene. It got lost after being shared around. It happens with these screening leaks.

    The one I mentioned was shared with me and it seems originated straight from someone that went to the screening. Hence why I used it as reference.

    The Rock is also starting teasing a SM's cameo not a logo's cameo. This would be bad.

    You’re a bonafide leaker now! Time to start plugging your NFTs ? Well I hope your source is right because a logo alone wouldn’t get me very excited.

    I'm not interested in selling NFTs or trolling people.

    You'd be more excited to see a logo... on SM's chest?

    Remember when people were saying that the Black Panther rumor of Namor appearing and being Mexican/Aztec was BS?

    Yeah, turns out it was true.

    I hope your joking. Namor looks awful and this may be the true ruin of an amazing comic character on screen. I hope I am wrong.

    Momoa's Aquaman has company? LOL. I actually like Jason, he seems very likeable and he is a good Aquaman. May not be the same Aquaman I grew up with but he has portrayed the character pretty good so far.

    I am not over here to talk Namor (believe me there are many other places for that right now). I am worried about that whole film.

    Now Aquaman 2 I am excited about no matter if that Mera is in it or not.

    So should DC have grafted Polynesian culture onto Atlantis and tried to spin that as diversity?

    Atlantis in the film was still pretty much Greek inspired despite Momoa being Hawaiian. Which brings a rather interesting question, when Momoa eventually leaves the role one day, do you think they’ll find another Polynesian actor to play Arthur or will they go back to the typically Caucasian portrayal?

    Neither - calling it now, next Aquaman is going to be Kaldur/Jackson Hyde.
