Oh, Bella Ramsey, at it again, stirring the pot with the finesse of a toddler wielding a sledgehammer. The 21-year-old actress, still reeling from the The Last of Us Part II film’s lukewarm reception, decided to wade into the treacherous waters of superhero fandom by sharing her unsolicited “sentimientos” on the two Supermen of our time: Henry Cavill and David Corenswet. In a recent Instagram Live on June 1, 2025, Ramsey opined on the transition from Cavill’s brooding Man of Steel to Corenswet’s upcoming caped crusader in James Gunn’s Superman, set to hit theaters in July. Her comments, meant to sound insightful, instead ignited a firestorm on X, where fans tore her apart for what they called “clueless grandstanding.” Just when you thought Ramsey couldn’t dig her career hole any deeper, she’s back with a shovel, and the internet is loving every self-inflicted wound.

Ramsey’s remarks came during a casual Q&A with fans, where she was asked about the DC Universe’s reboot. With all the confidence of someone who’s never heard of “read the room,” she declared Cavill’s Superman “too dark and mopey” while praising Corenswet’s yet-to-be-seen version as “probably more fun, like the comics.” She went on to say Cavill’s portrayal “felt like it was trying too hard to be edgy,” while Corenswet’s seemed “more authentic.” Never mind that Superman hasn’t even premiered, and all we have is a trailer showing Corenswet soaring with a hopeful grin. The audacity of Ramsey, barely a blip in Hollywood’s radar, to critique a beloved icon like Cavill while hyping an untested newcomer sent X into a frenzy. “Who asked Bella Ramsey to weigh in on Superman?” one user posted, racking up 150,000 likes. Another quipped, “She’s out here acting like she’s Scorsese, but her last film flopped harder than a fish on dry land.”

The backlash is no surprise, given Ramsey’s knack for alienating fans. Her The Last of Us Part II film, released in April 2025, grossed a decent $350 million but earned a middling 62% on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics noting its narrative stumbles. Fans, already prickly from the game’s divisive story, turned Ramsey’s emotional performance into meme fodder, dubbing her “Dadpool” for her tearful scenes. Her response? A now-infamous outburst in May, where she snapped, “Fuck the community,” during a Twitch stream, followed by a June Instagram Live where she groaned, “I can’t stand social media anymore.” Each tantrum has only fueled the internet’s glee in tearing her down, with X users now branding her “the queen of bad takes.” Her Superman comments are just the latest log on the fire, proving she’s as tone-deaf as a kazoo in a symphony.

The Cavill-Corenswet debate is a sore spot for DC fans. Cavill’s Superman, introduced in 2013’s Man of Steel, was praised for its gritty depth, though some criticized its somber tone, per FandomWire. Corenswet, set to star in Gunn’s brighter, more comic-faithful Superman, has sparked cautious optimism, with his costume reveal earning nods from former Superman actors like Brandon Routh. But fans remain fiercely loyal to Cavill, with hashtags like #HenryCavillSuperman trending after Gunn’s trailer dropped in December 2024. Ramsey’s decision to dunk on Cavill while boosting Corenswet, sight unseen, feels like a deliberate jab at a fandom still raw from his exit. “Bella Ramsey calling Cavill’s Superman ‘mopey’ is rich coming from someone who cries in every scene,” one X post sneered, summing up the sentiment.

Ramsey’s defenders—those few still standing—argue she’s just being honest, a young actress navigating a ruthless online landscape. But even they can’t deny her penchant for self-sabotage. Her Instagram Live, meant to connect with fans, instead showcased her inability to dodge controversy. Industry whispers suggest her outbursts are spooking studios, with Deadline reporting hesitancy around her role in A Court of Thorns and Roses. The #CancelBella hashtag, though fleeting, keeps resurfacing, fueled by fans who see her as ungrateful. “She’s got a Golden Globe nomination, but acts like she’s above criticism,” one X user scoffed. As Ramsey continues to spar with the internet, her career teeters on the edge. Her Superman hot take might just be the final kryptonite for a star who seems determined to crash and burn, one ill-advised comment at a time.
