Henry Cavill has been getting fancast in potential MCU roles ever since he hung his cape as Superman. Fans have been looking for any character he could play, and interestingly enough, his versatility has brought several strong contenders. While many have wanted him to play characters like Doctor Doom and Cyclops, he has revealed that he wants to play Captain Britain. Regardless, his entrance into the MCU would be welcomed, to say the least.
However, there is one character who could not be a better fit for The Witcher actor; Wolverine. Although the role has exclusively been played in live-action by Hugh Jackman for more than two decades, a lot can change when Deadpool and his third film enter the picture.
With the vastness of the Multiverse entering the scene, fan art of Cavill in the role is already being made and a specific one looks too good to not mention.
Henry Cavill Could Have Already Made An Appearance In Deadpool 3 Trailer
Deadpool 3 is introducing a concept that the MCU has only been playing with in the past few Marvel projects. Diving headfirst into the world of the Multiverse, the film will introduce and bring back a lot of iconic characters with several different faces. One character who has been speculated to make an entry is Patch, a variant of Wolverine who operates in the lawless city of Madripoor.
There was a scene in the teaser of the film that showed Wolverine sitting in a casino-like setting, wearing a white suit, which is the signature of Patch. While there is a lot of proof to back the theory, fans also believe that the character will not be wearing the face of Hugh Jackman. The possibility of him playing all versions of the character is not something fans can count on.
This has prompted many to believe that Henry Cavill will be putting on the eyepatch and making his MCU debut.
Fan Art Shows How Good Henry Cavill Will Look As Wolverine
With the theory of Henry Cavill being a part of Deadpool 3 making its rounds around the internet, many fans have started to wonder what he would look like in such a role. While his look in his upcoming film, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, helps give us a vague understanding of it, fans want more. 21XFOUR on Instagram recently made some beautiful art that shows what the hypothetical casting could look like.
Adorning a beard and his metal claws in full display, Cavill as Wolverine is a sight to behold. On top of the character’s iconic hairstyle, he also has a look of anger in his eyes, something that has become just as signature to him as his yellow suit. It is safe to say that the fan art does justice to what fans had in mind.
