Over the years, Henry Cavill has starred in various iconic roles. And now fans might get to see him in another classic role.

Henry Cavill to Return to the Big Screen, but Not in a DCEU or a MCU Project

Henry Cavill has played more iconic roles over these years than some actors do
in their lifetimes. The way he dilutes himself into every character he plays on
screen is why every director wants him in their films. So it is no surprise that
most lead roles come his way now and then. And now it seems like Cavill has won
himself the part of another iconic character from a renowned franchise.

Apparently, the Man of Steel is in talks with Universal Pictures to take the
role of one of the most classic characters. Here is what we know so far.


HENRY CAVILL TO STAR IN THE UPCOMING FRANKENSTEIN MOVIE?

As per certain proven and trusted sources
[https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/henry-cavill-frankenstein-talks-exclusive.html],
Henry Cavill might be the lead choice for the role of Frankenstein, the
scientist who creates a gruesome monster assembled from body parts and brings it
to life. Based on a novel by English novelist Mary Shelley, the first
Frankenstein movie dates back to 1931.

Directed by James Whale, Sci-fi/ horror film Frankenstein (1931) was a
commercial success upon its release. It also gave segue to several sequels and
spinoffs. Moreover, the film has had a substantial impact on pop culture too.
The Enola Holmes

actor is currently negotiating with Universal Pictures for the role in a new
reboot of the film.



Cavill is no stranger to taking on classic roles and iconifying them. From
Superman in Man of Steel to Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher], the Mission Impossible actor has not
limited himself to being associated with only one role. Universal Pictures has
been looking for a way to modernize classic monsters, and casting Henry Cavill
in one of the films would be a significant step.


WHAT ROLE WOULD CAVILL PLAY IN THE MOVIE?

Starring Cavill [http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill] in Frankenstein
raises another doubt: What role would Cavill be a fit for? Over the years, the
actor has starred in various muscular roles. Furthermore, his muscular physique
will perfectly complement him if he takes the part of the monster.

On the other hand, it will be fun to witness Cavill play Doctor Henry
Frankenstein, the main protagonist and a driven man of science. However, Cavill
as Igor, the hunch-backed lab assistant to Doctor Frankenstein, is not out of
the equation either.
