Dwayne Johnson has become the apple of the eye of people ever since he brought back Henry Cavill once again in the DC Universe. The Man of Steel actor was last seen donning the cape of Superman in Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021) followed by months of absence.
With the people clamoring to bring Henry Cavill once again as Superman in the DCEU, Dwayne Johnson became a real-life hero as he brought the actor back in his upcoming DC film Black Adam (2022).
Dwayne Johnson Listens To The Fans
A video shared recently on Twitter features Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson being interviewed by CinemaBlend. The video showcases The Rock’s declaration that the demand of the fans has not been getting ignored. After referencing much about the appearance of Superman in Black Adam, the Jumanji actor came straight to the point of talking about his decision to bring back Henry Cavill again due to heavy demand from fans.
The video starts with the interviewer asking about making a movie based on the teaser at the end credits (referencing Superman’s appearance). Here’s what Dwayne Johnson had to say about the matter.
“Absolutely. That is the whole point of this man. Thank you for asking that and I…um, I have been saying for some time. There’s this new era in the DC Universe that’s about to begin. What I really meant by the ‘this is a new era in the DC Universe’ was listening to the fans, listening to the fans!”
The Red Notice actor further continued,
“Now, I do my best to give to the fans what they want and maybe sometimes down the road, I went through this in pro-wrestling is you can’t always give them what you want but you’ll always know that we are listening.”
He further continued to incorporate the talk of Henry Cavill once again joining the DCEU as Superman in his upcoming film Black Adam,
“And in this case with what you and I are talking about, I have been listening and i’ve been wanting to address fans for years. So finally after um…many months turned into many years. We ended up with what we ended up at”
By the talks, it can be confirmed that the rumors of Henry Cavill appearing once again in the DCEU had been true all along. The fans will be able to see once again Henry Cavill donning the Blue/Black cape of Superman as he fights it out with Dwayne Johnson starrer and DC’s anti-hero Black Adam.
