Henry Cavill is no stranger to what a weird place the internet is. With there being memes, reels, and TikTok videos of the star circulating every platform, Cavill is definitely hard to miss. And with users taking liberties while editing celebrity interviews and more, everyone on social media is fed a little more gossip than they might really need. And that is exactly what happened back in 2018 when the rumor mill started churning out speculation after speculation.

After The Witcher star, Henry Cavill and Vanessa Kirby, The Crown, wrapped up a movie they were in, the costars went on an interview together that some may have taken a little too far.

Vanessa Kirby once checked out Henry Cavill

Back in 2018, Henry Cavill and Vanessa Kirby worked together on the film, Mission Impossible: Fallout. And once shooting was wrapped up, the stars hit the promotion circuit to promote their upcoming film. But during an interview with E! Insider, people believed that they had caught the moment where Kirby was ready to risk it all while watching Henry Cavill talk about the movie.

But just like with the Stranger Things co-stars, Dacre Montgomery and Natalia Dyer, where the former was speculated to have stared at the latter, the simple gesture of Vanessa Kirby looking at her costar, was taken to mean that she was attracted to Henry Cavill. And even if that was not the case who could really blame her? But instead of giving the actress the benefit of the doubt, social media began spinning the narrative that she was “checking out” Cavill.

But while one section of the internet actually saw the humor in the clip, Hollywood’s rumor mill could not keep quiet for too long, with social media users claiming that Kirby was “admiring every inch” of the British actor’s body.

The internet chimed in on the attractiveness of Henry Cavill

Once the interview racked up views, everyone was quick to notice how Vanessa Kirby watched Henry Cavill. Many left comments on the video, while others took to Twitter, now named X, to see how the public felt. And the opinions came flooding in, but they all seemed to have one common consensus.

The one thing that all fans agreed on was that the Superman actor was attractive, something we have known since Superman. But instead of commenting on that, they chose to give a spin to the situation. Even though it came from a place of love and admiration, fans may have gone overboard.

While Cavill might always be one of the most handsome men in the world, fans can only keep fantasizing. The actor came out with his relationship with Natalie Viscuso, who recently rekindled an old love, in 2021 and his fans have been reeling ever since.
