Tag: Henry Cavill

The British actor Henry Cavill was born on 5th May 1983 in Jersey, UK, and was raised with four brothers. Most popularly known for playing Superman in the DCEU and the Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s The Witcher series, Henry Cavill was once the unluckiest actor in Hollywood. He lost out on roles to Christian Bale, Daniel Craig, and Brandon Routh in Batman, James Bond, and Superman, respectively.

Henry Cavill has appeared in several TV shows and movies since the early 2000s. His most notable roles include Man of Steel, The Immortals, The Witcher, Justice League, The Tudors, Enola Holmes, Mission Impossible: Fallout, and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. He has won the Golden Raspberry Award and MTV Movie Awards for his role as Clark Kent in DCEU. The 39-year-old actor has not tied the knot yet, but he was once engaged with Ellen Whitaker. After breaking it off with her, he dated MMA fighter Gina Carano and Kaley Cuoco in the past as well. In 2021, Henry Cavill made public his relationship with his girlfriend, Natalie Viscuso. 

From a very young age, Henry Cavill wanted to pursue acting. He started in school plays before he was discovered at the age of 17 and cast for the Count of Monte Cristo in 2002. He continued working in several other smaller roles. Henry landed the leading role in The Tudors in 2007 at the age of 22. Then in 2011, DC signed him on as Superman. He was the first non-American actor to don the Cape in a reboot of the beloved comic book series. 

Henry Cavill’s net worth

Currently, Henry Cavill has a net worth of around $40 Million. Although his beginning was humble, the actor has built quite a resume over the years. For the first season of The Witcher, Henry Cavill made somewhere around $3.2 Million. For the second installment of the Netflix fantasy series, Cavill got a whopping $1 Million dollars per episode. 

Man of Steel was the film that gave Cavill global recognition. For his first appearance, the actor reportedly made $14 Million. For the two other sequels, it is speculated that he made around $20 Million. Man of Steel was a blockbuster and is the highest-grossing Superman film to date. Moreover, it also holds the title of the second-highest-grossing reboot right after Andrew Garfield’s The Amazing Spider-Man. The movie grossed around $669 Million worldwide. It had a budget of $225 Million.
