Supposedly, a sequel to the 2015 movie version of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. is in development, according to a website called Giant Freakin Robot. (Giant Freakin Robot?)
Cavill, who turns 40 in June, has departed various film franchises. He was once Superman but is no longer. He was once the star of the streaming series The Witcher but is no longer.
U.N.C.L.E. didn’t catch on when it was released in August 2015. Normally, that would be it.
Yet, this is an excerpt from the latest article:
Through our trusted and proven sources, we can report that The Man from U.N.C.L.E 2 is being developed with Henry Cavill returning in the main role. Guy Ritchie is also returning to write and direct the sequel, though we are sure Armie Hammer will not be in it.
Armie Hammer, who played Illya Kuryakin in the 2015 movie, has endured, shall we say, various controversies that have stalled his acting career.
For now, color the blog skeptical. Maybe something will happen. Then again, it may be another chapter in The Man From U.N.C.L.E. curse.

Giant Freaking Robot is click bait. They post wild speculation that has little basis in reality. Their credibility is questionable.
Well, let’s not make that a phrase.
Everything is always a rumor at first. Maybe it’s about testing enthusiasm by conversation. Because if nobody reacts (good or bad) why would they bother. Fans should say what they want. And what was terrible. Oh, and check out the Series, itself.
Another case of the sequel that ABSOLUTELY NOBODY ASKED FOR!!!
I am taking this with a dump truck full of salt.
I think Henry’s birthday is May 5th?
