More quotes by Henry Cavill
I was overweight when I went to school. In fact, I was overweight when I left, just taller. Fatty Cavill was the nickname. I mean, no one wants to be Fatty Cavill.
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
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
My version of Superman is essentially of a guy who has spent his whole life alone.

A large amount of constant activity will get things going. For example, training in the morning will have everything, all the juices flowing by the time you actually get to work. So, when you're at work, you've been already up for an hour or so or two hours, and you're raring to go where everyone else is still wiping sleep out of their eyes.

I don't think Americans look bad in spandex.

Henry Cavill
The point of acting is to pretend you're someone else and sell a story.
Henry Cavill
I never thought of myself as unlucky. When you aim high, it's tough to get there unless something really fortunate happens.
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
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
No matter what era we're in, we need hope.
Henry Cavill
I like to go full bore into something. If you have a backup plan, then you've already admitted defeat.
Henry Cavill
I work out two, two and a half hours a day. For 'Immortals,' it was body-weight stuff: crunches, pullups, and martial arts-based cardio.
Henry Cavill
When I first met my girlfriend, I was super intimidated. I wanted to impress her. I was thinking, Don't mess this up, man. You've gotta play your cards exactly right.
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
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.

I didn't see a lot of comic books growing up.
