I'm guessing they'll announce that the Flash movie will be cancelled soon.
Cavill out. Affleck likely out. Gal Gadot's agent needs to bend WB/DC over since she is their only saving grace.

Hopefully Gadot can step in
She can't act to save her life.

It's a Shazam! movie. It's not King Lear.

Henry Cavill Out as Superman Amid Warner Bros.' DC Universe Shake-Up
Henry Cavill, who has played Superman in three films, is parting ways with Warner Bros., sources tell The Hollywood Reporter. Though neither side is confirming, the British actor, who first donned the blue suit for 2013's Man of Steel, and then starred in 2016's Batman v. Superman and last year's Justice League, is said to be hanging up the red cape.
That's because the studio has shifted its focus to a Supergirl movie, which will be an origin story featuring a teen superheroine. This effectively removes an actor of Cavill's age from the storyline's equation given that Superman, aka Kal-El, would be an infant, according to DC lore.
This is an odd decision. Oh a Supergirl movie should be fine. The CW series gets decent enough ratings for that type of show. And a teen-aged Supergirl would at least let them cast an actress that won't be ready to apply for Social Security after a couple of movies.
Its the Superman would be an infant that surprises me. Supergirl has always been either his younger cousin (original origin) from the bottle city of Kandor, or, though a mix up, was supposed to be his guardian/baby sitter when he arrived on Earth but her pod was delayed and she wound up arriving (in suspended animation) decades after Supes had gotten here.
Supergirl works a lot better if you acknowledge her more famous cousin and have him show up... even if it is for a brief cameo. I think they are looking for a soft reboot of the entire shared Universe and are hoping to recast as many of the roles as they can get away with.

Next James Bond
With the next Bond movie having production problems and Craig having other commitments, I'm all aboard Craig exiting the role, pushing the release back a year, and rebooting with Cavill.

Affleck and Cavill were both fine picks for their respective characters, but WB/DC is retarded and decided to make everything dark and gritty due to Snyder.

Cavill is underused and underrated in almost everything that he does. He was money in Man from U.N.C.L.E.
I 100% agree with all of this.

DC is gonna be the female superhero series going forward. Wonder Woman will be the big star. Supergirl and Birds of Prey are in development now. Harley will likely take on a bigger role in Suicide Squad 2.

That was one of the things they got right; Cavill has great for the part.
He looked the part to a tee IMO. But I don't think he's a very good actor. I know a lot here do think that, but he kinda sucks IMO. Or he at least certainly did in Man of Steel, BvS, and the last M:I movie.

Closest we’ll get to a live action Archer

None of that officially confirms his departure so I will wait for an official press release from Warner Bros. or for him to outright come out and say it before I take this as anything more than speculation. The article itself says neither have done so as of yet, and the rest of it just says that there were supposedly scheduling conflicts (due to his work on The Witcher) keeping him from a cameo in Shazam, and that his character likely wouldn't appear in their planned Supergirl movie. Just sounds like blind assumptions.

He should have a nice reunion with his lip.

WB may now be looking to cast Michael B Jordan as next Superman

Sounds like Flash is going to run too fast and make Superman black.
