Will there be a Man of Steel 2?

Henry Cavill does not directly reference the upcoming sequel Man of Steel, but there is little question that it is a part of the plans he is teasing.
The time may have come for Warner Bros. to provide fans with more of Henry Cavill’s Superman. Cavill’s enthusiasm for returning to the role bodes well for a speedy production of the sequel and a bright future for Superman.
