Nobody does 24/7 body tuning. Not body builders. Definitely not actors. It's too stressful. Too exhausting. And it's extremely destructive. This guy is over it all.he did his work and now he wants to enjoy the payoff.
Im not a WH40K enthusiast but I kind of can't wait to see it. The dedication this guy has to his passions are impressive.

Cavill maintained his strict body shape for a long time. People should let him be how he pleases.
Christian Bale is probably more dedicated with how extreme he has shifted his body composition from movie to movie.

Thats different, its borderline psychotic levels of incredible but its one thing to work hard for a role, another to be just walk around cumgutters for 15 years. And he had bulk so he wasnt just toning and fasting, he was probably cycling 3-4k calories to maintain. Your asshole was not meant for this, particularly in protein

I’m a 40K fan and his insistence on being lore accurate gives me hope. They screwed him over on the Witcher so let’s hope his dream project pays off. I’m so looking forward to it.

That’s gonna be incredibly hard with about what? 500-600 books of lore alone? I for one can’t wait to see it.

Alone picking the setting is already daunting. You'll definitely disappoint some fans because their faction isn't included, etc. bla bla... I can already see the online fighting over whatever they are cooking up.
For me, I just hope it will be grimdark, which will bring its own set of problems.

u/Cerberusx32 16h ago
Especially because the first picture looks like him for Super-Man, while the other is of him not working on a major project.

Its a good plan - do what you can when young and enjoy the rest of your life.

100% AI on the left. He’s wearing a cape on bare shoulders. 🤣 That must have been in the Snyder Cut. 😆

u/RealisticIncident261 10h ago
Angles, water weight and a beard. In the first photo he was dehydrated as fuck for the movie.
Look at how far back his head is, it's back as far as it can go. If he weight cut for a week, shaved and slicked back his hair he would look the same.

He attained an unrealistic body type for some roles. It would be insane to expect him to maintain that for several years. Unless you want to be someone like the Rock or Alan Ritchson and make it literally your entire lifestyle to be that guy (including taking lots of "supplements"), it just isn't happening.

u/untakenu 16h ago
Have you ever seen bodybuilders 95% of the time? They look more like the right than the left.
On the left is a man clenching his jaw with his head slightly further forward, head tilted up a little, having been on a strict diet to look a certain way fkr a film. On the right is a relaxed man, mouth slightly open (relaxed the neck).
He's still jacked and still very handsome.

u/TheJohnnyFlash 16h ago
All this does is out dudes that are in poor shape and never trained seriously in their lives.
On that movie set he's trained for months and cut weight for the shooting days he's showing the most. He doesn't even look like Superman does in the movie two weeks after shooting.
12
u/QuantumPairOfSoczk 16h ago
Also that tight muscle thin skin body builder look is caused by dehydration

u/Greenshardware 15h ago
Anyone who has trained seriously knows you don't become superman by working out for a few months and cutting weight before a shoot...
Not without "help."

Hmm now that’s a job I haven’t thought about.
You get paid well? Seems like a job not many people are seeking so I’d assume it’s good pay. Asking as I’m currently in an electrical engineering program specializing in machine maintenance, and I think I’d have some knowledge that would translate well

u/irrevocable_discord9 16h ago
Give the guy a chance to shave and shed some water weight for fucks sake. Nobody looks like a hero 24/7 except narcissists

It's just the angle of one bad photo. Don't let Internet fool you, Henry Cavill is still handsome as fuck in most other photos and interviews

u/StunningLetterhead23 16h ago
Tbf, I believe even if he turn into a fat fuck, my wife would still leave me for him in a heartbeat.
Heck, if I was her, I'd leave me for Henry Cavill in a heartbeat too. No contest, no second thoughts.

u/Expensive-Yam9635 7h ago
I would totally understand it if my husband left me for him. I'd even be kinda worried if he wouldn't! And I know he feels the same way, because we've said this to each other on more than one occasion.
His looks are only a very small part of this btw. I mean, Cavill is just as big a nerd as me and my husband with his love for gaming, building PC's etc

So, Superman picture after he's spent three days actively cutting water for maximum definition, vs him ten years later in the off season. 🙄

He could get back to the shape in the left picture within half a year, if he wanted or needed to for a role.

It's much simpler than that.
Actors, when they need to look extremely jacked, will undergo dehydration in addition to everything else. When they ultimately get to shoot the movie, they are dry as the desert and basically as skinny as they can get. In the first picture bro was probably shooting something. In the second picture you can see a normally fit human being.

I firmly believe that the majority of teenagers think that ugly people (or people who lose their looks) need to kill themselves. Zero sympathy or understanding for how aging works from those who haven't experienced it yet.

he smokes meat? what does that mean?

Exactly what it means, he puts minced meat inside a paper, folds it up and lights it to smoke.

Can we have it both ways. He’s been on trt, growth hormone and steroids while claiming not to. Like almost all actors.

u/Anaeijon 4h ago
If I remember correctly, he recently spoke about the routine to get those 'sharp edges'.
Basically, actors that do that overhydrate for multiple weeks and then extremely dehydrate by basically not drinking anything for days, which makes them increasingly sick, the longer the shoots take.
It retracts skin, so the skin wraps very closely to the muscles, making them more defined and the muscles wrap closer to the bones, creating sharp edges.
Basically, it's very unhealthy look and only a temporary effect. But somehow we got brainwashed by media, to accept it as normal.

Really hate that being in love, a dad and happy is treated as an excuse/contributing factor to getting out of shape. It's not and he's not. You and your mindset are.

u/spartansix2 16h ago
Do you have kids? I would have said the same thing before I had my first.
When you get 2 hours of sleep at a time, your chore load is doubled because your wife is recovering, and your testosterone level drops (which happens to guys after becoming fathers), I promise you won’t hit the gym like you used to.
Not impossible to get back in shape but those first few months are rough.
