Henry Cavill’s return as Superman in Man of Steel 2 was doing the rounds for a long time. But the rumours were denied by the makers with no planning to develop the sequel. Now, the actor’s comeback is said to be in some other DCEU movie. Shazam 2, Black Adam, The Flash and Aquaman 2 are speculated to be the potential films.

Superman made a cameo appearance in Shazam! (2019) but it was played by a stand-in and not Henry Cavill. However, Shazam sequel could feature Cavill as Superman for a longer period. Dwayne Johnson will essay the titular role in Black Adam. The Rock has teased his brawl with Henry Cavill as Superman which opens the chances of a possible return. Other upcoming DCEU movies are Wonder Woman 1984, The Suicide Squad and The Batman. However, it is unlikely for Cavill's comeback in those films as they are either under filming or post-production stage.
