2022 was undoubtedly a vortex of chaos for DC Studios, but it was even more tumultuous for Henry Cavill. After DC let him go as the all-time favorite Superman and Cavill bid farewell toThe Witcheras Geralt of Rivia, the British actor’s future had started to swim toward murky waters, or so it seemed. But it looks like there is absolutely no shortage of billion-dollar franchises that Cavill could join as rumors state his next big-studio role might just be alongside Dwayne Johnson in aHobbs & Shawsequel.
While the 2019 buddy cop action film received average reviews, it did make positive enough numbers at the box office, earning over $760 million worldwide, thereby balancing the scale. The movie saw the formidable US agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) put his long-time rivalry with the British mercenary Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) aside to join forces against a common threat. So the sequel is naturally believed to bring back the iconic pair of frenemies once again to share the screen, only this time, there could be a surprising yet welcoming new addition to the plot.

Henry Cavill is Reportedly Set to Appear inHobbs & Shaw 2
According to new reports, DC’s former Clark Kent is in talks to join the star cast of theFast & Furiousspin-off sequelHobbs & Shaw 2.
While the said rumors remain unsubstantiated so far, fans suspect it could very well be possible for theMan of Steelstar to share the screen with The Rock since he had a cameo inBlack Adam, a DC film starring the latter. What’s more, the two have also been good friends off the screen and Johnson had a major role in reinstatingHenry Cavillas Superman, even if it was transient. So it wouldn’t be totally shocking to see Cavill join theFast & Furiousfamily if he does so in the future.
