Henry Cavill is rumoured to reappear in Black Adam. But it seems like Black Adam is not the best choice for Superman to return in. Here&#039;s why

Henry Cavill Should Return to DCEU but Not With Black Adam

While Henry Cavill gathered a massive fan following for his iconic roles in
various movies and shows, the start of it was his role as Clark Kent in Man of
Steel. Over the years, Cavill has starred in several popular series and shows on
Netflix, like The Witcher and Enola Holmes. Moreover, these shows and movies
have new sequels on the way. Therefore, the audience will see more of Cavill as
Geralt of Rivia or Sherlock Holmes. However, Cavill’s return as the Man Of Steel
is one of the most anticipated comebacks. Recently rumors of the Mission
impossible: Fallout actor returning in his red cape for Black Adam have been
floating around. But is it the right movie for Henry Cavill’s Superman to make a
comeback in?

Clark Kent, a.k.a. Superman, is one of the most iconic superheroes in the DC
extended universe. Through all the controversies and news, Cavill’s return as
the Man of Steel has become crucial. And, Black Adam might not be the perfect
film for Cavil to put on his Superman suit again, here’s why.


WHY SHOULD HENRY CAVILL NOT RETURN TO DCEU THROUGH BLACK ADAM?

It has been almost five years since we last saw Henry Cavill in the Kryptonian
suit, and now Cavill is rumored to return for a cameo scene in the upcoming DCEU
film Black Adam starring Dwayne Johnson. While Cavill’s return is undoubtedly a
piece of news to be excited about, it takes away the attention from Black Adam.
Notably, Black Adam is one of the greatest villains in the DC comics. At the
same time, it diverts the story from the comics as Superman is not the original
hero that fights Black Adam. Furthermore, only a cameo scene would not do
justice to the much-anticipated return of Superman. A mere cameo would give
Cavill’s Superman a brief focus rather than the celebrated affair it should be.



Cavill previously appeared as the Man of Steel in Zack Snyder
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-zack-snyder-almost-brought-back-ryan-reynolds-green-lantern-had-his-dceu-plans-sustained/]‘s
2017 film Justice League. Apart from the 2013 film Man of Steel, Superman, one
of the greatest DCEU superheroes, has not had a proper defining film. However,
the future of Cavill as Superman in movies and in general remains uncertain.


WHAT DC FILM SHOULD SUPERMAN MAKE A COMEBACK IN?

Shazam! Fury of the Gods could be the perfect choice for Cavill to draw on his
Kryptonian suit. One reason Cavill’s comeback in Shazam is apt as it will give
the fans more hope for DCEU’s future films. In the trailer
[https://youtu.be/Zi88i4CpHe4] of Shazam 2, Billy Batson is in self-doubt about
his relevance as a superhero which is something the Man of Steel
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-how-henry-cavill-was-a-walking-distraction-for-amy-adams-on-the-sets-of-man-of-steel/]
could help him with. Moreover, it will also be the perfect way to pay tribute to
the long shared comic book history between Billy Batson and Superman. However,
another Man of Steel movie would not hurt either.
