Superman's 'tache is causing trouble on Justice League
Henry Cavill's facial hair is apparently causing problems on Justice League as it undergoes reshoots.
Reshoots on major movies aren't exactly uncommon, but Variety reports that the timing of these ones has caused scheduling issues, especially with Cavill and Ezra Miller working on other movies currently.
Miller is shooting Fantastic Beasts 2 which is also a Warner Bros movie, so isn't as much of an issue. But apparently Cavill's work on Mission: Impossible 6 has added extra work in post-production on Justice League.

Mainly the fact that his Mission: Impossible character has a moustache.
As a result, Variety claims that Warner Bros will have to digitally remove Cavill's 'tache as he can't shave it since he's still shooting the spy sequel.
And people on Twitter have been having a lot of fun with the fact that Superman could have had a moustache.

It’s a pretty dramatic irony if the crew of #MissionImpossible can’t make a convincing fake mustache.#imf #henrycavill #justiceleague pic.twitter.com/sRqQPW6dkl

Imagining Paramount and Warners execs screaming at each other about Henry Cavill's mustache is my favorite part of Justice League. https://t.co/SZIzWegkOD

In other Justice League news, it was reported over the weekend during Comic-Con – where the new trailer was unveiled – that Joss Whedon will receive a co-directing credit as Warner Bros were apparently marketing it as a film by Zack Snyder and Joss Whedon.
Whedon stepped in to oversee the final months of production on Justice League after Snyder stopping working on the movie due to the tragic loss of his daughter.
Justice League is released in cinemas on November 17.
