After his shocking exit from the DC Studios despite making a long-awaited cameo in Black Adam, fans were hoping Henry Cavill would do the good old switcheroo and jump ship to the Marvel Studios. However, there haven’t been many updates about his arrival at the Studios until now. According to recent reports, Henry Cavill will soon be seen playing a character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
From Doctor Doom to Captain Britain to Cyclops, fans have been lobbying for characters they think Henry Cavill would be perfect for. While there have been no official updates regarding the actor’s involvement in the MCU, a recent report might have the positive update fans have been looking for.
Henry Cavill’s Apparent MCU Role Gets an Update
If you have been keeping your eyes peeled open for updates about what’s next for Henry Cavill, you must know that there is a buzz going around that states the actor has apparently already been cast in the MCU. Just a little while ago, a report stated that Cavill will be playing a Wolverine variant in the upcoming film, Deadpool & Wolverine. As for how much truth there is to the report, we cannot say.
Recently, insider Alex Perez took to Discord for a Q&A session about the upcoming Marvel Studios projects and he had something to say about Cavill’s alleged MCU role. When a member asked him about the Man of Steel actor playing a Wolverine variant, Perez replied, “There is credence to this rumor.”
Next, a curious fan asked, “The Henry Cavill rumors, is there a timetable of when we will find out who he will be portraying in the MCU?” Without going into the details, Perez simply stated, “This year.” Well, it looks like fans will soon know if Cavill will be playing Wolverine in Deadpool & Wolverine or not since the film comes out in July this year.
Fans React to Henry Cavill’s MCU Update

They soon took to X to express their excitement about seeing their favorite actor becoming a part of the superhero universe. It doesn’t really matter if he plays Doctor Doom or Cyclops, however, the fans seem to have one major concern.

Whether Cavill becomes a part of the MCU or not is a question no one can answer with absolute certainty, at least for now. All we have to do is wait patiently and hope the rumors are true! After all, who wouldn’t want Cavill to don a super-suit once again!?
Deadpool and Wolverine will be released in theatres on July 26, 2024.
