Johnson said he had been campaigning for the return of Cavill as Superman for years. When the filmmakers were planning to bring Superman back in Black Adam, the former chairman of Warner Bros. Pictures was against it. However, Dwayne Johnson went over his head to the Warner Bros. Pictures CEOs, who ultimately approved the return. Since then, The Rock has been hyping about Cavill’s return. He even teased the idea of Black Adam and Superman’s inevitable face-off in the future.

And this is the reason the DC management is not happy with the Black Adam star. Reportedly, Cavill has shot a cameo for The Flash movie as well. But the authorities are not sure whether or not to keep the cut in the film. If they would keep it, it might suggest they would plan something bigger for Superman. Well, the new plan has kept many movies and sequels aside, including, Man of Steel 2. Therefore, there is a lot of uncertainty going on in the DC Universe.
