According to Deadline, Cavill will star in a new film by director McG, known for "Terminator Salvation" and "Charlie's Angels." His co-star will be Kevin Hart, one of Hollywood's most famous comedians.
The plot will follow two rival agents who unexpectedly become friends after meeting at a parenting class. Their partners quickly hit it off, forcing the protagonists to spend more and more time together, leading to a series of comical situations.
The project is being developed by producers associated with major Netflix hits, including Shawn Levy and Ryan Reynolds. The title and premiere date have not yet been disclosed.
This is an atypical move for Cavill: he is known for roles in projects like "The Witcher" and "Superman," and is also preparing to participate in the Warhammer 40,000 adaptation for Prime Video. Comedy will be an opportunity for him to show himself in a new light.
