Henry Cavill returns to the much-awaited movie sequel
Although the film didn’t do well at the Box Office, The Man from U.N.C.L.E made Cavill a star. As the actor gained much popularity after the film, because of the poor Box Office collection, the filmmakers didn’t consider making a sequel to it. But now that the English actor has left two major franchises, Guy Ritchie is going to bring back Napoleon Solo, reported by GIANT FREAKIN ROBOT.
However, the writer and director of the film, Guy Ritchie, will have to recast Solo’s partner, Illya Kuryakin. The actor, Armie Hammer, who portrayed the character will not return because of his legal issues. While The Danish Girl star, Alicia Vikander, might also return to reprise her role in the sequel.
