Cavill doesn't have the clout not to do interviews. He has to do them because it's a part of his job. Nothing wrong with that but saying he's "willing" to do them is stretching it and if Immortals bombs hard (which it very well might) that would actually make him less marketable than Routh. Because a huge budget movie with his face and name front and centered failed. Not to mention, they're going to make it known their movie has the new Superman.

But even if it does flop, it's 100% Grade-A irrelevant to The Man of Steel.

Batman Begins and The Incredible Hulk were both specifically brought up because they were comic-book movies with a big-name cast. And it didn't matter to their bottom line. And like them The Man of Steel is coming off a movie that wasn't met with the best reception.
