There’s been so much speculation over Henry Cavill’s future that the actor was forced to make a rare social media post to politely ask his fans to stop making such wild claims over his personal and professional life, but ever since the news broke that J.J. Abrams was rebooting Superman without him, insider Daniel Richtman has named the 38 year-old as either being interested or in talks for a massive number of projects.
This includes, but is by no means limited to, the Fast & Furious franchise, 6 Underground 2, a sequel to The Man from U.N.C.L.E., the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Hercules via a cameo in Thor: Love and Thunder, a Disney prince, a Netflix superhero, multiple video game adaptations and even an alternate version of Batman from a different reality. At no point did Highlander ever come up, but despite Cavill entering talks to headline the reboot, Richtman is nonetheless linking him with another outside venture.
The tipster claims that The Witcher star is asking to board the John Wick series, which at least does boast a somewhat tenuous connection to the Highlander role given that director Chad Stahelski is overseeing both. While Cavill is well-versed in blockbuster action cinema, he almost certainly won’t be involved in Chapter 4, with Keanu Reeves throwing on the finely-tailored suit of the master assassin in just a couple of weeks when production kicks off in Berlin.
Having maintained radio silence for months, Cavill has now signed on to Enola Holmes 2 and set his sights on Highlander in space of a week. Stahelski admitted last summer that he wants to make the fantasy reboot his next feature after John Wick: Chapter 4, but given that it was originally set to be shot back-to-back with Chapter 5 before those plans were nixed, we can at least guarantee that one of the director’s next three movies should feature Cavill in some form.
