10 More Movies We Desperately Wanted To Happen (But Never Will)
1. Another Henry Cavill Man Of Steel Flick
It was so close.
After years of wondering whether the Man of Steel himself Henry Cavill would officially return to the DCEU and finally get his long-awaited solo sequel, the Brit rocked up opposite Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam at the end of that otherwise unremarkable October 2022 feature.
And the world rejoiced... for about ten minutes.
Not long after it was reported by The Hollywood Reporter (via Collider) that a Man of Steel 2 was in development, December brought with it the disappointing update of Cavill actually not being a part of James Gunn and Peter Safran's plans for their DC movie universe going forward.
Instead of that Cavill-starring Man of Steel picture, the Suicide Squad director is moving forward with his own Superman: Legacy project; one that will focus on the titular icon at an earlier point in his life.
So, Cavill was soon left on the outside looking in. And those who spent a decade holding out hope that they'd once again see this version of the Big Blue Boy Scout soar in a hotly anticipated sequel were just left wondering what could've been and playing his ten-second comeback cameo on repeat.
