Henry Cavill’s return to the bandwagon of DCEU has been a hot topic of discussion for the past few months. An active force fueling this wildfire has been Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson who is all set for his electrifying debut in the universe of DC. Since it was announced that The Rock would set foot in DCEU with Black Adam, almost everyone wanted the character to go against the Kryptonian. Now it seems that the Red Notice actor has fulfilled the wishes of his fans.

Dwayne Johnson has been actively dropping hints at every step about the possibility of Henry Cavill’s return. Now appearing in a recent interview, the actor almost confirmed that Warner Bros. Discovery does have bigger plans for our beloved Superman.

Henry Cavill is going to have a colossal comeback

Despite his known importance in the world of DC, the last time Henry Cavill‘s Superman was seen doing action was in 2017’s Justice League. Although we also spotted Superman after that in the 2019 Shazam movie still it was a headless cameo and Cavill didn’t even play it. But DC is reportedly going to repay its debts to the fans as now more Henry Cavill projects seem to be under development.

Speaking in a recent interview with Emmy-Winning Entertainment Anchor Jake Hamilton when the Rampage star was asked about his vision of the faceoff scene with Superman, he replied very interestingly. According to him, he is so clear with his vision that he can also visualize what the upcoming three films would look like. This provided a major hint that we can get more of the Kryptonian than expected.

“I can see things so clearly on how that scene looks like, what the film looks like, what the next three films looks like…”

Following this, Dwayne Johnson also dropped another bomb. While explaining the importance of listening to his fans, he addressed how the most powerful force in the universe has been sidelined for so long.

“So, for the past 10 years, as I was pushing Black Adam up this hill to get made, for the past five, six, seven years, I was also listening to the fans at the same time, where you have Black Adam– we would create Black Adam for him to be the most powerful and unstoppable force on this planet. The most powerful and unstoppable force in the entire universe has been on the sidelines for too long,”

Almost every other word of the Black Adam star is pointing toward Henry Cavill and his potential grand reappearance. Take a look at the interview here:

Various events hinting toward Superman’s return in Black Adam

From posting a picture with the Witcher actor long back in 2016, the former WWE star has been routinely hinting towards the mega event. Some of the more recent inclusions to the list just before a few weeks of its release include a mysterious post by The Rock himself.

In a recent Instagram post, Dwayne Johnson promoted the background score of the upcoming movie and said:

“I just saw the movie again last night. I can’t wait for you guys to see Black Adam. He is the most powerful — here’s the third act — he is the most powerful and unstoppable force on this planet.”

The additional wink at the end while mentioning “on this planet” created a buzz on the internet as the fandom was assured that all the rumors are true. On top of it, some screening reports suggest that the Man of Steel appears with the classic John Williams background score in the post-credits scene of Black Adam. But we have to wait for a few days now to find out how much reality is there in these reports.

The famous organization from the comics is also going to be played by an ensemble star cast having names such as Pierce Brosnan as Dr. Fate, Aldis Hodge, and Noah Centineo.

Black Adam is going to hit the theaters on October 21, 2022
