Henry Cavill’s Former Fling Kaley Cuoco Chooses Batman Over Superman

DC Entertainment has put out a new video promoting Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice in which stars from The Flash, Supergirl, The Big Bang Theory, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, iZombie, Supernatural and Lucifer weigh in on who will win: The Dark Knight or the Man of Steel?

When the clip gets to Kaley Cuoco, she surprisingly responds, “I think Batman would win.”

Of course, there is nothing wrong with Cuoco believing Batman could best Superman in a fight, but one has to wonder if that choice was at least partially influenced by her past relationship with Henry Cavill. They only briefly dated in the summer of 2013, but the media attention they received in those 10 days was extraordinary.

“I had no one following me until I met Superman,” Cuoco told Cosmopolitan magazine in 2014. “I’ve been in this business for 20 years, and my whole life, I could go anywhere, do anything. There had not been one paparazzi photo of me until like several months ago. The recognition was crazy.”

In Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice opens March 25, 2016.
