More quotes by Henry Cavill
If I spend all my time being upset about having lost a job, then the next however many auditions I have are going to be useless.
Henry Cavill
Certainly, for younger guys, Superman is this mythological character that they've thought about and explored in their imaginations... But one thing I really like about Superman fans is that they're so open-minded and excited and honest. There's something beautiful about their enjoyment of it - something very Superman-like.
Henry Cavill
I'm training two-and-a-half hours a day, pushing my body beyond its normal limits, putting on a lot of muscle mass and just making myself look like Superman.
Henry Cavill
My version of Superman is essentially of a guy who has spent his whole life alone.
Henry Cavill
I still don't have any crushes on actresses or models. It's always been one of those things with girlfriends. They say, Who's on your list? What do you call it, the Get Out of Jail Free card?
Henry Cavill
I hate to say found himself - it sounds so ridiculous.
Henry Cavill
Finding the physical aspect is important to me because that is often how we read people in everyday life.
Henry Cavill
People have this belief that actors are able to go out there and say, 'Oh I choose this job,' but most of the time we're just taking the job we can get. We don't just get offered thousands of jobs we might earn one job a year and that's the one we'll take because we've got to pay the rent.
Henry Cavill
Why can men no longer be best friends? This is so stupid. Today if you show two guys being best friends they end up giving out an image that they’re gay. But guys don’t always need to be drinking beer, fighting in pubs or pulling women by the hair. They may have a deep affection.
Henry Cavill
As much as I do love real-life stories they can often make you hurt in a way I'd rather not hurt. . . . For some reason, it's always the pain that gets you.
Henry Cavill
I often find during a day of shooting I will speak in an American accent all day long when I'm doing dialogue. At the end of the day, it often takes an effort when I'm talking to my fiancee to bring my English back just because you're so used to speaking that way.
Henry Cavill
A lot of the stuff you do as an actor - or I do, because I can't speak for everyone - is not always consciously thought out. A lot of the time, for me, it's actually just feeling stuff, and it happens all in the moment and your body reacts.
Henry Cavill
Playing an icon [superman], you don't try to be an icon because that defeats the purpose. The responsibility attached is enormous, and the realization that it actually really, really matters meant that I wanted to put the most amount of work into representing the character properly.
Henry Cavill
People say, Age is just a number. A lot of times it's not just a number. It's actually a real and true sign of someone's maturity. But in this case, she's fantastic.
Henry Cavill
There is a story that you have to tell within a certain amount of time, and you can only show so much of the character. So as much as the script is born from the source material, there are certain limitations.
Henry Cavill
Everyone doubts themselves. It's just a matter of admitting it or not.
Henry Cavill
To play Bond, though, and then for the world to perceive you in a certain way, is very different from playing Superman. Bond is not this ideal figure.
Henry Cavill
Superman isn't moody or brooding or aggressive.
Henry Cavill
I wouldn't say Bond is an ideal figure, no. The character has been performed in so many different ways that people go, Oh, that's an interesting take on Bond.
Henry Cavill
Regrets are something you can't really have as an actor, because ultimately you'll end up destroying yourself there's a lot of disappointment in this business.
Henry Cavill
