IF you haven’t seen Shazam! yet, then we suggest you watch it first before you start reading further into this. But for those who’ve seen it, then you may already know which cameo we’re talking about. And just in case you’re wondering who was actually under that suit, then we’ve got some news for you.

WARNING: Spoilers incoming beyond this video.

Yes, we’re here to address the superhero elephant in the room: Superman. If you’ve watched the movie, then you know what we’re talking about. Obviously, the question on everyone’s minds is whether or not Henry Cavill was the one in the suit. Well, eagle-eyed viewers (not us) were quick to conclude that it wasn’t him in the suit. So that leaves the question as to who actually wore it.

Well, German movie site Film Starts decided to reach out to Warner Bros. for the information. The answer they got was a man by the name of Ryan Handley. But who is he?

According to his IMDB page, he’s a stunt actor and has already done quite a lot of stunt work for DC projects including Suicide Squad. Most recently, he also actually plays as the stunt double for Zachary Levi in Shazam!

We know, everyone would have preferred Henry Cavill to have appeared in the suit, but somehow it just didn’t work out for whatever reason. Some people said it was conflicting schedules. Some said it was an issue over contracts. We may just never know for sure. But for now, we couldn’t be more grateful for Handley for putting on the super suit and giving us a fun cameo that we didn’t actually see coming.
