From becoming the king’s best friend in The Tudors to being a killer in The Witcher, from playing a teenage boy to becoming Superman, Henry Cavill has established himself as a versatile actor. However, there was a time when he became a reporter as well. No, we are not talking about him being a reporter in Man of Steel.

Cavill once attended a phone launching event of Huawei in 2016. Along with him, the company also invited the Avengers star, Scarlett Johansson. The company had announced its new flagship smartphones, the P9 and P9 Plus at a launch event in London. They also aired a teaser for the ad campaign at the show and later published it on YouTube as well. At the event, the former The Witcher star posted a picture of himself standing in front of Johnsson’s picture, taking an interview.
