AceShowbiz - Portraying the titular character of "Superman", Henry Cavill admitted that in real life he is desperate to have the superhero's body, especially when he takes his clothes off. "There's a blessing in being Superman. You get more attention," he told The Guardian in an interview. "But there's also a curse, which is that you'd better f***ing look like Superman any time you need to get your kit off."
In further interview, Cavill shared about going online to find out what people think of him, but insisted it's "not healthy". He went on elaborating to The Guardian, "You have your dark moments when you go on the internet forums. You're peaking behind the curtain. You wonder, 'What are people saying about me? Oh that's nice. Oh, how lovely'. But then you find one that isn't. One that says you're only in a relationship to raise your profile, or to prove you're not gay."
Cavill will be reprising his role as Clark Kent/ Superman in the upcoming superhero film "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice." The film is set to be released on March 25 next year. And by January next year, the 32-year-old British actor will still be starring as Man of Steel in "Justice League Part One", set for 2017 release.
