On March 6, 2023, @homeofdcu on Twitter came to James Gunn for some clarification. They sent along a link to a story claiming that Henry Cavill has spoken with Gunn and Peter Safran about returning to the world of DC in the role of Frankenstein. Shortly after this tweet went live, Gunn replied by handily shooting the rumor down. “Completely false. We have our Frankenstein – our first choice – & it’s not Henry. Was never discussed with him,” he wrote, mentioning that the role is not only cast, but the person assigned to it was Gunn and Safran’s top pick.
Naturally, with Cavill ruled out, fans went ahead and started tossing out names in response to Gunn’s tweet. Some of these Frankenstein guesses include Clancy Brown, Ron Perlman, and “Game of Thrones” alum Rory McCann. While these are all solid choices, they’re based purely on speculation and hope. There’s no way to know who landed the role of Frankenstein until the folks at DC Studios release such information — just like how we won’t know if and when Cavill will return to DC and as which character. After all, Gunn has spoken with Cavill about potentially joining the DCU, so it seems possible that he could appear down the line.
Time will tell how much longer we have to wait to find out what the full “Creature Commandos” cast will look like. For now, know that according to one of the foremost authorities on the matter, Henry Cavill will not portray Frankenstein.
