Henry Cavill is undoubtedly one of the biggest celebrities in the entertainment industry now. Thanks to his role as Superman in the 2013 Man of Steel, the Hollywood hunk quickly garnered attention with his remarkable presence on the screen. From his kind demeanor to his iconic build and body, fans loved the way he portrayed this iconic character to near perfection. The same goes for Tyler Hoechlin, who played the same superhero for the small screen since 2016.

Both the actors established their images through this role, not just because they were excellent actors but had similar qualities. And in 2019, their Night Hunter costar Alexandra Daddario spilled beans on it.
