Dwayne Johnson Says is Took 6 Years To Get Henry Cavill Back as Superman Because WB Did Not Want Him
As we previously heard, Dwayne Johnson demanded from Warner Bros. that Henry Cavill return to the role of Superman for Black Adam. Apparently, this wasn’t an easy task for Johnson because according to him, the studio did not want to bring Cavill back as Superman! Which is insane!
Anyway, it took Johnson six years to get Cavill back in the role of Superman, which not only included his return to Black Adam, but also a solo film. In a recent interview, Johnson talks about his journey of getting Cavill back as the Man of Steel, saying:
"I feel that this serves not only Black Adam but the entire DC Universe. More importantly than that, it takes care of the fans. And that's what you want your lead foot to be. So, yes, phone calls, meetings…But, man this was years man. Six years to get that done. I'm going to say that again, six years we kept talking about this and they kept saying no. Now, that leadership isn't there anymore and we usher in a new era of the DC Universe."
This just shows you how blind some studio executives are when it comes to making movies. How do these people actually get these jobs!? It’s certainly not for their brains or lack of common sense.
Luckily, a new team came on board that finally embraced the idea of bringing Cavill back as Superman. I’m super stocked about seeing him back in action!
