Stephen Colbert invited Henry Cavill to speak about The Witcher, but he went on to talk about Superman. There has been speculation about whether or not Cavill will reprise the role, but he is in limbo as far as anyone is aware. An interesting point made during the discussion was the costume.

Would you change Superman's costume if you could? You bet I would. He looks awesome, but he looks so alien.
