Apparently Henry Cavill has admitted to feeling a bit "jealous" over having to leave the Mission: Impossible franchise. Some celebrities have become more widely-known after their work on successful franchises. However, others have regretted working on franchises for different reasons. There are also some who really enjoyed working on certain franchises.
One celebrity who has worked on more than one franchise is Henry Cavill. However, he seems to regret leaving one famous action franchise after appearing in only one film. It seems he enjoyed his time on Mission: Impossible - Fallout so much, it appears he wishes he could have continued working on more films. Henry Cavill seems to be feeling "jealousy" over not being able to remain in the Mission: Impossible franchise.
Henry Cavill Admits Feeling 'Jealous' Over Having To Leave The 'Mission: Impossible' Franchise
Numerous celebrities have worked on the many franchises that have been featured on-screen throughout the years. Some franchises have started and revived some celebrities' careers. However, there are other celebrities who haven't always enjoyed working on franchises for several reasons.
Other celebrities seem to have truly enjoyed their time working on certain franchises. Although Henry Cavill was only involved in one movie from the Mission: Impossible franchise, Mission: Impossible - Fallout, it seems actor would be excited to work on others in the action film franchise in the future, if possible.
According to FandomWire, Cavill even admitted feeling "jealous" for not remaining in the franchise. He was asked by Empire Podcast "if he missed" working on the films.
Cavill, who played August Walker in the film, stated, "I was extremely jealous. Extremely jealous. I want to be there, I want to be parachuting off a motorbike into a canyon. Why can't I be there?"
The Man of Steel actor also discussed why he enjoyed working on the film on the Happy Sad Confused podcast.
"When you're working with McQ, you realize that he's not stuck to one thing, and that's really, really important. I think it's very important to have a framework to work from, but he is constantly evolving the story depending on how the scenes are turned out, what's available, and any new ideas that are coming in."
He added, "He and Tom [Cruise] as a duo are extraordinary because they are always coming up with creative ideas."
Could Henry Cavill Return To The Franchise?
In some franchises, there have been certain characters who have been brought back, even after they were thought gone, through a variety of creative ways. Some characters have famously been brought back more than once.
Henry Cavill is an actor who is no stranger to franchises, on the small or large screen. He has also played a character (Superman) in a franchise who has been brought back to life before.
If he ever happens to return to the Mission: Impossible franchise, it wouldn't be the first time Cavill played a character who was previously considered gone.
According to Koimoi, while speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, at one point director Christopher McQuarrie didn't seem to rule out bringing Cavill back.
He stated, "I'm in the process of rewriting Mission: Impossible 8 right now, this afternoon I could turn a page, and any actor from the past could come back. There is no such thing as death in movies, only unavailability."
Perhaps if Cavill truly wanted to return to the Mission: Impossible franchise in the future, he could somehow return to the same role or even play a different role, such as his former character's twin. It wouldn't be the first time an actor has played their own twin.
What Has Henry Cavill Said About Working On 'Mission: Impossible' And Tom Cruise?

The Mission: Impossible franchise has been known for not only including incredible actors, but also many of the risky, daredevil stunts included within the films.
It seems Henry Cavill truly had fun while working on the seventh film in the franchise. According to Entertainment Weekly, the Enola Holmes actor discussed being thrilled to work on the film.
Cavill said, "I was very excited to finally get the chance to work with Tom." Discussing Cruise in action on-set, Cavill stated, "Tom's tirelessness is definitely encouraging."
Continuing, the Justice League actor added, "I have never come across someone who can live in both the space of an actor and the space of a producer at the same time. In the middle of a take, he'll be producing the movie in his head as he's performing - he'll just suddenly stop and repeat something because in his head, he knows that thing isn't gonna cut well with what he wants to cut with in a scene later."
According to Variety, Cavill also stated, "For me, when it comes to stunts, I've always enjoyed doing the physical stuff. Working with Tom Cruise [On Mission: Impossible - Fallout] really helped - or maybe, in the eyes of the producers, made worse my enjoyment for stunts. I really want to do them now, and I think it's an essential piece to the character."
He added, "If an audience is watching Geralt (his character in The Witcher) on-screen, they must believe that it is me. If it's not me, I feel like I've betrayed the character in some way".
Considering how much Cavill seemed to enjoy taking on the challenges of his role in Mission: Impossible - Fallout, hopefully he might be invited back to appear in a future film in the franchise, in some way.
