Henry Cavill is a British actor best known for playing the titular superhero Superman in the movie ‘Man of Steel.’ Once dubbed the unluckiest man in Hollywood after losing out roles in the Batman series, Superman series, and the James Bond series to Christian Bale, Brandon Routh, and Daniel Craig respectively, Cavill has come a long way. Born in Jersey, UK, Cavill was raised with four brothers, all of whom possessed good acting skills. As a teenager, he was bullied in school for being fat. He started taking care of his physique once he landed a major role in a movie in 2001. Now renowned for his well-built body and sexy physique, the actor has even done several shirtless scenes in some of his popular films. After making his acting debut, he went on to star in quite a number of movies such as ‘Hellraiser’, ‘Red Riding Hood’, ‘Blood Creek,’ and ‘Stardust,’ but it was his role as a dashing duke in the TV series ‘The Tudors’ which made him a household name. Post ‘The Tudors’, he proceeded to feature in a number of movies including ‘The Immortals’, ‘The Man From U.N.C.L.E’ and the highest grossing Superman movie of all time, ‘The Man Of Steel.’
