“I Mean That Respectfully..”: Dwayne Johnson Puts Henry Cavill Up on the Pedestal Ahead of Iconic Superman Actor

Standing amongst the world’s highest-paid actors, Dwayne Johnson is one of the greatest entertainers ever. He found early success as a pro wrestler in WWE and used it to his advantage for a head-start in WWE.

Soon, he was soaring high in Hollywood and starring in several highly successful movies. Johnson is also known for his impressive physique, which he carved with extreme dedication and hard work. However, he always did not have such a physique; after joining Hollywood, he started building his physique. Several Hollywood stars have impressive physiques, such as Henry Cavill, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, and many more.

Similar to Johnson, fellow DC Star, Henry Cavill also has one of the most aesthetically pleasing physiques. The Rock starred in Black Adam, which had released last month. It saw the eventual return of Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel.

Although Black Adam did not receive positive reviews from the critics, it was loved by the fans, who were excited to see Superman return. Dwayne Johnson took to Twitter to speak on how they established the power hierarchy in DC, and how much they fought for bringing back Henry Cavill as Superman.
