- Henry Cavill at Sony… and Marvel
Spider-Man in Her Majesty’s Service
This is the rumor that makes you seriously want: Henry Cavill could well put on the costume of a superhero again with the potential role of Spider-Man. Or rather Spider-UK. We forget Peter Parker to find a 100% British character, the so-called William Braddock.
Unlike his American counterpart from Earth-616, William Braddock comes from version 833. The character is relatively young compared to Marvel executives, with his first appearance only dating back to 2014.
Eager to continue expanding its Spider-Verse, Sony may well offer the role to Henry Cavill, sources say. GFK. Nothing official for the moment, but the idea seems credible enough given the roadmap of Sony Pictures Entertainment.
Henry Cavill at Sony… and Marvel
In addition to this role, Henry Cavill should also recover another from the side of Marvel. This time, the former interpreter of Superman should lend his features to Captain Britain, who is… another version of William Braddock (it quickly becomes complex).
On Earth-833, William Braddock is Spider-UK. On Earth-616, the main dimension of the comics and the MCU, he is Captain Britain and is called Brian. In fact, Henry Cavill could embody both versions of his characters, both for Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures. As usual, this information should be taken with a grain of salt. But they could quickly materialize and become much more exciting. Henry Cavill could even become the standard bearer for a new long-term collaboration between the two houses. What to leave dreamer.
