It’s learned Superman Henry Cavill will be appearing and promoting the Justice League movie for the first time at the Ace Comic Con.
Henry Cavill took to his Instagram to announce the news of appearing at Ace Comic Con in Long Island, which is actually from the creator of Wizard magazine, Gareb Shamus and his brother Stephen.
So, there is this little movie coming out in November called Justice League. It may have come up on your radar once or twice. It involves a group of superheroes doing super heroic stuff. Facial hair is involved.
Anyways, I’m here to let you know that you lovely people (who will undoubtedly have watched said movie at least 6 or 7 times by this point) will have an opportunity to come meet me, Jason Momoa, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Ray Fisher and Ciaran Hinds in December at ACE Comic-Con in Long Island, NY!!
Whaaaaat? I hear you say. Yes dear friends, get all your moustache related questions ready because I will be there to answer them. I can’t wait to meet you all and to also wax lyrical about DC on the big screen.
Henry Cavill also posted the following image featuring Superman with a mustache:
Henry Cavill was absent from the recent San Diego Comic-Con most likely because he was filming the new Mission Impossible 6 movie (hence the mustache) and not because Superman is dead (or was).
Regarding the Ace Comic Con, here is the official announcement:
