Will he make a comeback in Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible franchise?

As we all saw in Mission: Impossible – Fallout, the character played by Cavill met a dreadful end, and his comeback chances seem bleak. However, Henry Cavill has resurrected himself on numerous occasions, especially as DCEU’s Superman. Hence, as per fans’ speculations, massive head trauma and disfigurement could be worked around, which can bring back the villain from the dead.

Cavil spoke on Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast on his eagerness to work in the franchise again. He said,

“When you’re working with McQ, you realize that he’s not stuck to one thing, and that’s really, really important.”

“I think it’s very important to have a framework to work from, but he is constantly evolving the story depending on how the scenes are turned out, what’s available, and any new ideas that are coming in. He and Tom [Cruise] as a duo is extraordinary because they are always coming up with creative ideas. They’ll have meetings about stuff and say, ‘What if this happened instead of that?’ and they’ll go, ‘Oh, that’s a really good idea, but that means you have to change all of this.’ And go ‘We love this. So let’s change all of that.’ It did become very much sides (new lines) the night before and sometimes the day of, which is becoming more and more usual.”
