The rumors of Henry Cavill returning

Ever since the studio decided to discontinue the Snyderverse after Zack Snyder’s Justice League, fans have been inundated with rumors of The Witcher actor returning as Superman. Even though Zack Snyder himself seems to have moved on, Henry Cavill seems to be interested in returning.

Then came Dwayne Johnson, who has been teasing the clash between Black Adam and Superman for quite some time. He already confessed to being a fan of the Snyderverse and hinted at making it canon through his film.

Leaks from the Black Adam screenings

As Dwayne Johnson assured many fans, he always listens to what they want and hinted at Henry Cavill’s Superman making a cameo appearance in his film. The cameo appearance was more or less confirmed through the leaks, and this is what Black Adam producer Hiram Garcia had to say about it:

“Oh my God, it is so frustrating. You work so hard, but look, we understand that this ending and this dream, this family dream that we had to bring to life, we knew that it was going to have an effect on the fans that were just like, ‘Oh my God!’ We heard them begging for it for so long. We’ve been wanting it for so long. It’s disappointing that it leaks”
