Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, explains how long it took him and his team to convince DC Studios/Warner Bros. to bring Henry Cavill back as Superman. The Rock states that Henry Cavill is this generation’s #Superman, and that it’d be impossible to kickstart a new hierarchy in the DC Universe with #BlackAdam without the most powerful man in DC, i.e. Superman. Warner Bros. could’ve obviously recast the role, but to be honest it wouldn’t make any sense to do so if we have an actor already established in the role and willing to return to portray the character. In other news, shifting gears to talk about the upcoming Twisted Metal series, season one will apparently be like the movie Zombieland, in nature. And finally, Harrison Ford is satisfied with the way the fifth Indiana Jones film turned out.
