After Henry Cavill's exit, James Norton, Matt Bomer & other actors who could play Superman

English actor Ben Barnes is not only devastatingly handsome, he has given some intense performances in various genres of TV shows and movies over the years. In 'The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian', early on in his career, he was a good-looking classic Disney-ish prince, but he has since then branched out with dramatic performances in ' The Punisher', 'Westworld', and so on. He can easily explore the different facets of Superman.
 

Not only is Matt Bomer a fiercely talented actor who has the perfect look (and jawline) for Supes, he also bears a strong resemblance to Henry Cavill. Add to all that, he did play the titular role of Superman in 'Superman: Unbound', an animated film.
 

Madden has silenced even his worst critics with performances in complex roles, after gaining limelight by playing Robb Stark in 'Game of Thrones'. He also played an um, Superman-clone, called Ikaris. So this should come easy to him.
 

Wolfgang Novogratz has the advantage of being somebody who shares a striking resemblance to Christopher Reeve, the greatest onscreen Superman of them all. He is also young, and can easily carry a whole franchise on his shoulders.
 

Racists will hate this casting if it happens, but Golding has the charm, the looks and the personality to truly be a modern Superman. 
 

Yes, this would be an unconventional choice, but Jonathan Groff has the acting chops to portray a Superman we are not used to. 
 

A superb actor, Sam Claflin is as comfortable with "good" characters as he is at playing villains. In case, Gunn and Safran's DCU also has an evil Superman or Bizarro, Claflin can easily switch gears.
 

An underrated (and underseen outside UK, I'd wager) actor, James Norton is my personal choice here. He may instead be the next James Bond, but I believe he will be more perfect as the Last Son of Krypton. Again, like Claflin, he has played truly despicable characters and will nail that Superman-goes-evil storyline.
