Henry Cavill, as the symbol of hope, strength, and justice in DC, has always found himself at the center of projects with big bucks budgets. One of the highest-budget movies of DC, Justice League, had the British actor at the helm of affairs. Although the movie’s massive production of $300 million proved to be more of a shock when seen in contrast with the disappointing box office collections. But given that the movie consisted of people flying over Metropolitan city, the cost was reasonable. However, after his dismissal from DC, Henry Cavill’s upcoming project’s budget is putting Justice League to shame.

To say that the masses have been incredibly supportive of Henry Cavill since his DC exit would be an understatement. They are ready to back him up no matter what project he plans to take on next. However, after the latest update of his Argylle movie, there is a clear-cut winner from the Cavill fandom. One that is not only willing to shower him with love and support but also $1 Billion.

While it is unclear if the actor took note of this, he ended up signing mostly projects slated for a digital release. And Argylle, the intriguing spy thriller that had everyone in a chokehold with a poster featuring Henry Cavill and Dua Lipa, was going to be met with the same fate. Only for Apple TV+ to pull through with 1 Billion dollars to get it in theaters.
