Cavill's performance as the Man of Steel has been praised by both critics and fans, solidifying his status as a leading actor in Hollywood, in addition to his work in the DC Extended Universe, he is also known for his role as Geralt of Rivia in the Netflix series The Witcher in my opinion a more complicated role to play.

Eiza González also joins the cast as Marjorie Stewart, González is a Mexican actress and singer who first gained recognition for her role in the horror series From Dusk till Dawn: The Series in 2014, not so popular production but at least remind me some of the original movies from the 90s, since then she has appeared in a number of movies, including Baby Driver and others, not the most hype about her role but looks like a good addition that will be an easy fit.
Closing out the cast is Babs Olusanmokun, who plays the role of Heron, Olusanmokun is a Nigerian-American actor who is best known for her role as Dr. Joseph M'Benga in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and as Jamis in the acclaimed film Dune and its upcoming sequel Dune: Part Two, he has a very powerful presence and commanding performance make her a standout in the cast.
