Is Henry Cavill Going To Appear As Superman In The Rock’s ‘Black Adam’?


Both Johnson and Cavill are represented By Dany Garcia who is also a Producer Chances are High

Cavill looks like he moved on and enjoying his Witcher role tremendously. If he really doing Superman again I'd guess it just for the check and he'll be phoning it. Not looking forward to that.

Look what happened to No Time To Die when producers dragged a not interested actor into a role they don't want to do but just for the moneyz.

it would blow my mind

That'd be great. But I don't know if it's happening. WB seems to blame Cavill for all the DCEU problems.

A lot of speculation going around now is that Superman will show up. (whether Cavill or a faceless cameo is unknown)

reply

Might be the same "cameo" they did at the end of Shazam.

Cuz that's what the fans want. If it's not Cavill or even his stand-in from Peacemaker, the Rock is gonna have egg on his face after hyping up a 'Black Adam vs Superman' brawl. Which I would be cool with if it happens.

reply

Well apparently the Rock wants a movie where Black Adam fights the Justice League AND the Justice Society. Plus maybe the Suicide Squad. Honestly, if they revive the aborted 'Legion of Doom' thing with Lex Zuckerberg but just made Black Adam the leader, I could get behind that.

Dwayne Johnson confirms the studio did not want Cavill back as Superman:

"We have to bring back the most powerful, unstoppable force of all time in any universe. You guys know who I'm talking about, it's Superman. That's Henry Cavill. At the end of the day, the studio wasn't bringing Henry back, inexplicably and inexcusably but we weren't going to take no for an answer, This has been years in the making, bringing Henry Cavill back with strategic conversations and we were not going to take no for an answer. For us, there's no viable logical way to build out the DC Universe without the most powerful force and the greatest superhero of all time sitting on the sidelines, it's impossible to do. You can Venn diagram this thing 90 times but it all comes back to, 'Where's Superman?' You have to have Superman in the mix, so that's why we fought hard to bring Superman back."
