Before Black Adam , Henry Cavill’s future in the DC Cinematic Universe was a big question mark for fans. The actor has not appeared in new works of the brand for 5 years, since Justice League (2017).

According to Cinema Blend , The Rock talked about struggling to invite Cavill back to play the Man of Steel character: “If we want to confirm Black Adam as DC’s new powerful, unstoppable force, we need to bring back character with adequate strength. That is Superman with Henry Cavill’s performance. The studio once said it was impossible to bring him back. But we do not accept that answer.”

On his personal page, The Rock added: “There is no possible way to build the DC Cinematic Universe and leave out the most powerful character. You have to put Superman in the movie. And Henry Cavill is the world’s superhero.” In my opinion, he is also the greatest Superman. I want to say this in a respectful way to the other actors, especially Christopher Reeve.”

In order to have the scene where Superman and Black Adam clash at the end of the movie, The Rock tried every way to convince his colleagues to return to DC. On his personal page, Cavill said the scene was just an appetizer for the great things to come. Some rumors say DC is focusing on scripting Superman sequels. However, the company is not currently revealing the future of their most popular superhero character.

Black Adam is the 11th film of the DC cinematic universe, based on the DC Comic anti-hero of the same name. The content revolves around Teth Adam ( The Rock ) – who is given the unparalleled power of six Egyptian gods.

Nearly 5,000 years after his imprisonment, Teth Adam is rescued by Adrianna Tomaz ( Sarah Shahi ). Amanda Waller ( Viola Davis ) – director of the ARGUS organization and commander of Task Force X – founded the superhero team Justice Society of America to fight Teth Adam. However, a dangerous force appears, forcing Adam and the Justice Society of America team to work together to stop the danger.
