So sure, Henry Cavill’s Superman is again in motion, as previously reported. Rocking a model of his Man of Metal swimsuit and with somewhat curl on his brow, Superman reveals up in Kahndaq telling Black Adam (Dwayne Johnson) that they should have a chat now that the latter has smugly declared that nobody on the planet is able to going on-one-on towards him. Johnson was beforehand stated to have fought laborious for that scene to occur—so laborious that when then-head of DC Movies Walter Hamada stated “no,” the wrestler/actor went over him to get it authorized—and a latest story from the Hollywood Reporter actually underlines how near the wire it was.
Adam’s cinematographer Lawrence Sher instructed THR that director Jaume Collet-Serra basically pitched the scene to him as “one thing for Dwayne to stroll into … And we’re going to shoot it in like 10 minutes.” Johnson’s half of the scene was shot on the ultimate day of reshoots, with the staff doing the Superman half through a physique double and a model of John Williams’ basic Superman theme they discovered on Google.

Of seeing Cavill carry out the scene, he stated: “There are specific folks which can be iconic because the characters that they play, and he’s actually one in all them.”
