Superman
Out of all the actors in the DCEU, oddly enough, pretty much the only one that I feel wasn't miscast is Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman.
Not that his portrayal of the uplifting hero is perfect, but I chalk that up to direction, not acting. He looks the part and he seems dedicated and talented, but if Warner Bros. actually did go through with a much needed reboot, then it would probably be strange to keep Cavill in the role.
I kinda struggled for a little while trying to think of an actor that could be as good as, if not better, than Cavill at filling Superman's iconic boots.
I finally thought of Matt Bomer. He's not quite as big as Cavill physically, but I think he fits the bill well enough.
He's a talented actor as demonstrated in great shows such as White Collar and American Horror Story and movies like The Normal Heart.
He's quite likeable with comedic sensibilities and could pull off both Superman and Clark Kent.
Not to mention, he's portrayed Superman before, lending his voice to the character in Superman: Unbound.
Plus, it would be interesting to have a gay actor portray the American icon himself on the big screen. I'm sure there would be noooooo unnecessary backlash whatsoever...
