A few years ago, there were rumors about the Marvel Cinematic Universe trying to get Henry Cavill on board when he was still associated with the DCEU. But now that James Gunn has decided not to give Cavill his Superman back, the British actor has plenty of opportunities waiting for him. Now, after being associated with Amazon to create a series based on the game, Warhammer 40,000, is MCU trying to get Cavill once again for an iconic character?

The Witcher season 3 will be the last to see Cavill as Geralt of Rivia. While he handed over his swords and medallion to Liam Hemsworth, following him, not wearing the Superman cape ever. Now, there will be more opportunities for the British actor to grab and move on from these iconic roles. As fans are extremely happy with the actor living his nerdy dream with Amazon, would they like to see him bringing life to the Marvel character?

There is a possibility for Cavill to make his debut in the Marvel Universe as Captain Britain in the 2024 Captain America: New World Order.
