Batman has his Batsignal, but it seems Superman favours a more modern method of communication.
Superman actor Henry Cavill took a break Wednesday from promoting comic book car crash "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" to promote the new Huawei P9 smartphone instead. At the phone's launch event in London, Cavill appeared on stage to talk up the new Android smartphone, which sports two cameras.

Speaking of A-listers shilling phones, LG this week recruited movie hard man Jason Statham to flog the LG G5.
