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.

More quotes by 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
Getting the role like this is such awonderful opportunity... I remember looking in the mirror and going 'I'm superman'.
Henry Cavill
As much as everyone says that Superman is good, a lot of other people might say that that's why they find him boring A lot of Batman fans might say that.
Henry Cavill
I prefer more of the modern stuff - just because I can associate with the imagery more.
Henry Cavill
I work out two, two and a half hours a day.
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
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 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
Nature is a definite thing. But nurture is just as powerful. It can really mess with you.
Henry Cavill
I remember going, I'm really excited about this - I really want it to happen. It would be a wonderful opportunity. But if something doesn't happen, then it doesn't happen. My mother and father sort of raised me to look at things that way.
Henry Cavill
If I'm talking to someone and they're feeling a certain way, I will definitely tie into that very quickly. You have to learn to read emotions and feelings when you grow up in a family with four brothers - especially if three of them are a lot bigger than 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
I don't think Americans look bad in spandex.
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
I didn't see a lot of comic books growing up.
Henry Cavill
I go to work, I do a job, I play a role, and then I go home. I don't wear a cape at home. I'm not an invulnerable alien at home.
Henry Cavill
The point of acting is to pretend you're someone else and sell a story.
Henry Cavill
The hardest part of acting is not being guaranteed work. Every job could be your last.
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
My version of Superman is essentially of a guy who has spent his whole life alone.
