Henry Cavill's Superman return plans are reportedly on hold amid DC Studios' changes, as James Gunn and Peter Safran figure out the DCU's future
Henry Cavill's Superman return has slowed down, as what could be Man of Steel 2 appears to be on hold as James Gunn and Peter Safran figure out the DC Universe's future. DC fans were treated to a surprise last month when Henry Cavill returned as Superman in Black Adam's post-credits scene. The actor followed up the appearance with a social media post promising that he would continue to be Superman in the DCU and that exciting plans were in motion.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY It now appears that Henry Cavill's Superman return will take a bit longer than some may have expected. Previous reports revealed that Cavill did not have a contract for more DC appearances and that no creative team was in place for Man of Steel 2. These details have once again been corroborated by The Wrap, but the outlet adds that the momentum behind the project has slowed down.
Whereas the previous regime at DC Films seemed to have no interest in using Henry Cavill's Superman, that has not been an indication from DC Studios. James Gunn and Peter Safran confirmed that they are eager to use Superman in future stories. Henry Cavill has not been confirmed to be part of these plans, but it would seem logical given the nature of Black Adam's post-credits scene and the fan excitement to see more of Cavill.
Henry Cavill's Superman Return Must Be Part Of DC's Future The hold on Man of Steel 2's development should not be too worrying either considering how important Henry Cavill's Superman will be for the DCU. As James Gunn and Peter Safran look to rebuild the DCU, it would be strange to do so without Superman. Even if they would prefer to recast the character, Black Adam's post-credits scene potentially forced their hand.
