Talking about the Henry Cavill franchise that should have been, The Man From U.N.C.L.E is praised by people around the world. With Guy Ritchie sitting in the director’s chair, it would indeed prove to be a great decision if a sequel was truly in the works for the Mission: Impossible actor.

The Henry Cavill Franchise That Could Make Billions

With a storyline set in the 1960s that featured intense action along with the trademark Guy Ritchie comedy, The Man From U.N.C.L.E became one of the most talked about movies in 2015. With the Man of Steel actor getting removed as Superman and departing as Geralt of Rivia from Netflix’s The Witcher, Henry Cavill has quite a lot of potential for starring in sequels to hit movies that he had previously starred in.

In a YouTube video wherein Cavill’s career was assessed by creators, the discussion for The Man From U.N.C.L.E came to light.

“The Man From U.N.C.L.E. is the Henry Cavill franchise that should’ve been” the video starts saying. “Guy Ritchie’s [film] is actually a prequel to the classic T.V. series of the same name” 

The video continued about how the sequel can take place right after the first movie ends.

“There’s one plot theory that suggests that the film will take place in 1964 in Istanbul because the first part ended with the agents in Istanbul”

The video further talked about how Lionel Wigram, the screenplay artist of the original movie has already started working on a script. It is also alleged that the notable director Guy Ritchie will once again join as a director for the show.

With previous experience with the director, Henry Cavill is all set to star in an upcoming war movie called The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. The movie is currently in production and will star notable actors such as Henry Cavill and Eiza Gonzales.

With the notable director currently busy in his pursuit of releasing great movies, the people surely hope that a sequel to The Man From U.N.C.L.E. finds its way to the people. With Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania getting tied with Eternals, people fear and mistrust franchises more and more every day.
