Some people are bothered by some of that manly chest hair popping out of the suit...As a man who prides himself in having chest hair...It's good to see him bring it back :)
 
The chest hair thing is the most hilarious topic ever. I don't have a problem with no chest hair but it was nice to see chest hair.

What age would that be? Middle school means nothing to me. :)

Yahoo Movies' photo editor Giana Mucci:

Superman walked my dog. Twice. How many people can say that?
Back in 2005 I became friends with an extremely handsome restaurant host named Henry. Little did I know it was Henry Cavill, on the cusp of fame.

I used to walk my rescued malamute, Buddy, by the new neighborhood tapas restaurant in West Hollywood, California, each night.

Buddy immediately took to Henry. And I must admit, so did I, almost immediately giving him the moniker "Hot Henry." He was, without a doubt, the most handsome person I'd ever seen in real life and also, quite possibly, the nicest. The British accent didn't hurt either.

[...]
Henry and Buddy adored each other. I was simply the lucky bystander of their friendship. Buddy had a huge personality, and when he really liked someone he would howl and give the warmest of bear hugs. Henry got this type of greeting nightly. It was incredible to see how kind he was with this big 100-plus pound, wolf-like dog that intimidated most people. After Henry offered a few times to walk Buddy if I ever needed help, I finally took him up on it. Henry just wanted to do this as a favor, but I insisted on paying him. After all, he was a struggling actor, right?

The next time I called Henry to see if he could walk Buddy, I didn't hear back, which seemed a little strange. A couple weeks later, I got a voicemail from him apologizing for not being able to help and explaining he had been overseas auditioning for Bond. Wait, what? Bond? James Bond? Who was this guy? And how embarrassed should I be that I had asked him to walk my dog??? Suddenly my "Hot Henry" was up-and-coming actor Henry Cavill. After coming in second to Daniel Craig for the role of Bond, he immediately booked a leading role on the Showtime series "The Tudors."

I got to see Henry about a year and a half ago at a press event for the fantasy drama "Immortals," in which he starred. I was among the last of the journalists to interview him. He now had much darker hair and had put on an insane amount of muscle and, truthfully, looked exhausted. I did not know how this would go. He immediately recognized me, hugged me and asked me about Buddy. Despite all that had changed in his life, he was still the same Henry — as humble and thoughtful as ever. It was very surreal to see him that day. Part of me just wanted to chat with him about old times, and the other side of me was keenly aware of the team of press relations and studio execs waiting to usher him to the next interview. Before Henry left to do more press, he looked down, and said quietly, "I miss Buddy." My heart melted. He was a movie star now, yet he genuinely missed my loving dog.

I realize that I only shared a brief moment of time with Henry, but he will always be the sweet, kindhearted, ridiculously handsome guy who was so genuinely compassionate toward my best friend and me. I can say firsthand that Henry Cavill, aka the Man of Steel, is as beautiful on the inside as he is on the outside. He has always been super — and now finally the world gets to see it.

Congratulations, Henry, on all of your success. No one deserves it more.
 
I just saw that article while eating lunch and got teared up. Aside from the joy of having a guy like that playing Superman, I just love stories about good people and good dogs.
 
Yeah, I had just read that right now when I got into work, great story :up:
 
That's great. He looks really genuine and nice in interviews, but yet again people have to because they're in front of cameras.

But reading this article beats my skepticism.
 
Was chest hair really poppin out of the suit?
Why don't you go see the movie in IMAX and look? :hehe:

What age would that be? Middle school means nothing to me. :)
There's no "middle school" in the UK, but Wikipedia says preparatory school is up to 11-13. He looks it there. :funny:

On Graham Norton he said that he was "Fat Cavill" and stayed the same weight from 13 to 25. He just got taller. :oldrazz: Eh, I'm about Henry's age and I knew fatter kids. But kids will make fun of you for anything.

You can see the potential there. It's kind of like how the boy actor playing Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter series grew up to be the hottest of the bunch. :awesome:

I like to say that if someone is at their hottest in middle or high school, it's aaaall downhill from there. :hehe:

Aww, a guy who likes dogs is a good guy. :yay:

And.....HI FLUFFY DOGGY!!!!!!!! :awesome:

I wore some similarly awful things because that's how the 90's were. Ahh, my tye dye shirts and goofy 90's jeans. I actually hate 90's clothes in hindsight.

Still better than the hair-abusing 80's.

The movie will get my money soon, possibly this weekend. I haven't seen a movie in theaters since Titanic 3D.
I don't remember wearing tie dye in the 90's, I remember cross colors and baby doll dresses.
He also doesn't particularly look fat in that picture but maybe he's hiding it; and EEWW Neville is not the hottest of the HP kids.

I was born in 84 so I didn't truly experience the 80's but I'm inclined to agree with you. 80's fashion is vomit inducing to me.
I'm the same age, and I remember going to a salon for a classmate's birthday party in 2nd grade and getting my hair crimped. -shudder-

That was probably the last time I had my nails done too, actually. :funny:

Crimped hair. lol
 
That's the best story. Gotta love a man who loves dogs. Also, that dog looks a lot like mine, so if Henry Cavill is ever filming a movie in the DC area, I'm shamelessly taking my dog to the set as bait. :oldrazz:
