One of the most prominent actors of the current generation, Henry Cavill, was an integral part of the DC Universe in the past. It was his character Clark Kent in the 2013 Man of Steel that helped him earn recognition worldwide. Cavill again collaborated with Warner Bros Discovery for movies including 2016 Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice and 2017 Justice League

However, post the 2017 movie, there has been no collaboration between the 39-year-old and DC. Often there have been speculations regarding Henry Cavill being a part of DC Extended Universe again, but things haven’t materialized yet. Meanwhile, the rumors of the actor collaborating with the Marvel team are also floating in the industry. There was a strong buzz among the fans about Henry attending the D23 expo, but the news didn’t have any truth to them.

Just the thought of seeing Henry Cavill in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is enough to excite the fans.
