A fan page dropped an AI-generated poster, imagining Cavill as Arthur in a potential Red Dead Redemption movie.

On top of that, Cavill’s 2019 photo with a horse, Hector, resurfaced, adding more fuel to the flames. As a result, fans continue to demand the video game adaptation with Cavill’s casting.
In addition, a YouTube page named Smasher dropped a concept trailer last year, which also garnered significant attention. It compiled clips from various movies and AI-generated footage, making it appear real. It has received over 700,000k views to date.
Will Henry Cavill play Arthur Morgan in a Red Dead Redemption movie?
Henry Cavill hasn’t been cast in any potential Red Dead Redemption movie.
Earlier, Cavill had spoken about being part of a movie or series based on a video game featuring himself in an interview with Gamereactor. He said, “I’ve actually started playing Red Dead Redemption 2 — I know I’m a little bit late to that party — but I started playing it and I’m really enjoying it. And so, something like that I think would be fun to turn into a movie.”
While the film isn’t in development currently, its growing fan popularity might lead to the idea materializing in the future. Cavill is reportedly set to appear next in In the Grey and Voltron.
