ET’s Rachel Smith spoke with the actor at the “Enola Holmes 2” premiere in New York City on Thursday, where he dished a tiny bit on his recently confirmed return as the Man of Steel.
“Right now I can’t really talk about anything,” Cavill admitted. “What I do want is hope, optimism and joy. Those three things are essential in a character.” As for his return as another iconic character, Sherlock Holmes, in the “Enola Holmes” sequel, Cavill said he’s glad to be back in the “feel-good” franchise.as the titular sleuth, Sherlock’s mischievous younger sister. “It feels good to watch the movie, even though there is a very real and important message which is within the story. The story itself is fun to watch and Enola is enormous fun to watch, and that’s easy to connect to.
It’s a great character, he added of playing Sherlock. So, would he be down for a third? “Only time will tell,” he said.
