Could the Man of Steel be trading in his cape for a cowboy hat? According to a resurfaced interview, Henry Cavill is more than ready to saddle up for the Wild West.
In a conversation with GameReactor, Cavill was asked what video game adaptation he’d love to be part of. His answer? Rockstar Games’ iconic Western saga, Red Dead Redemption.
Cavill said
“Something like that I think would be fun to turn into a movie,”
While he didn’t officially confirm any role or project, his response quickly reignited fan buzz online especially after a viral fan-made poster imagined Cavill as Arthur Morgan, the beloved protagonist from Red Dead Redemption 2. With his rugged looks, stoic charm, and a track record of bringing gaming icons to life (looking at you, Geralt of Rivia), Cavill as Arthur Morgan doesn’t feel far-fetched it feels right.
Fans are already speculating: If a movie adaptation ever happens, would Henry be first in line? And honestly… who better?
From Superman to swordsman to gunslinger Cavill seems ready for his next great adventure.
