Henry Cavill poses w/ young fan in full Superman gear, goes shirtless in new trailer

Here are some new photos of Henry Cavill definitely not being mistaken for Matt Bomer as a flurry of female fans follow him down the street in Hollywood on 1/29. While the initial reaction here is “Wow!” … look at the sign behind Henry. He’s leaving the Chateau Marmont, which is a known place to be seen if one really wants to be seen. Henry’s presence at the Chateau would lend credence to the report that he quite enjoys hitting Vancouver hot spots and being a total babe magnet. Still, he seems to be fending off the paps and the chicks with a stick (ahem, tight pants), and I’ve included more photos of this spectacle at the end of this post. Let’s just assume that Henry was attending a meeting and didn’t have the foresight to arrange for more covert transport from the scene. Hopefully, he didn’t really just show up at the Chateau to incite mayhem and get photographed, right?

We can also forgive Henry for (maybe) schmoozing at a key paparazzi venue after what this next photo (from the DC Universe Twitter page) brings. Here’s Henry posing in his full Superman suit with a wee fan on the set of Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel reboot. Doesn’t this just make your ovaries go “Pop!” with joy?

Well, I bet those guys that once called Henry “Fat Cavill” are regretting their words right now. As they very well should.

Since Man of Steel won’t hit theaters until June 2013, here’s a little something to tide Cavill fans over in the form of a new poster and trailer for Cold Light of Day, a thriller that shows Henry in action mode and (conveniently) “leap[ing from] tall buildings in a single bound.” See what they did there?

Henry stars as a young man on vacation with his family, who gets kidnapped from their boat while Henry is frolicking shirtless in the ocean. Somehow, his father (Bruce Willis) escapes the attackers and then reveals himself as a member of the CIA, which sounds like — let’s face it — the makings of a really stupid movie. In addition, are we really going to buy Bruce Willis as Henry’s dad? I mean, we know what Bruce’s swimmers produce in real life. He has very dominant genes is all I’m saying. Still, can I suspend disbelief in that regard and deal with an entirely ridiculous storyline if it means getting to see Henry shirtless? Well, obviously. Cold Light of Day releases on 4/6, and here’s the trailer.

Now let’s look at more photos of Henry trying to fend off the masses. God, he is such a handsome man.

    I think I just fell even more in love. As if his ass wasn’t enough to make me love him. *Sigh*. Relax, Henry-baby, you’ve already won me. Cute photos with children are only making me love you more. Now what are you getting me for Valentines Day?

  2. originalone says:

    I love me some Henry, but he looks cheesy in these pictures. I mean Piven cheese. Not even cute Pattinson cheese.

    Wrong color, tan, on such a handsome man. He should stick to dark colors to highlight his amazingly beautiful eyes.

    And BTW, from all BC accounts, he is shy! Not macho at all. Which makes him even more attractive to me. Can’t wait for Superman!

    • Kathy says:

      Yeah the v-neck with the furry chest is just…not good.

      He was so attractive in The Tudors, but I think Lainey might be right that he just doesn’t really take a good pic. Is his hair too long in the back or something? He did look his best on The Tudors in the beginning with the shaved/closely cropped head.

      What happened to the fiancee?

      • Carolyn says:

        he was engaged to a horsey (as in show jumping) english girl. Yes I want to know where she is…Kaiser must find out! He is just one of those people who is gorgeous with the right camera angles and endearingly so when caught candidly.

    • originalone says:

      @Kathy – I don’t know if there is a girlfriend. Some people are hinting that he has been playing the field… I believe on other gossip bloggers. But whatever, I find him hot. And it’s not like I’m gonna meet him tomorrow and he’s gonna fall for me. 😉

      Sigh, if only. He could bring over his Man of Steel costume over anytime!

    Who needs HGF when there’s HHT (Hot Henry Tuesday)!

  4. podzol says:

    I love me some Cavill, which is why I’m so dismayed to find out that he’s starring in Abduction 2: Sigourney Weaver to the rescue (again). Nooo…!

  5. Newtsgal says:

    My god….I’d put something on him that clorox won’t take off!

  6. BW says:

    There’s a reason man purses were invented.

  7. Astrid says:

    Doesn’t do it for me like the Fass

  8. Jessaying says:

    Cavill is harboring a person in those jeans. (Faints) Marry me?

  9. Mirella says:

    Oh my God I love this man!!! And those pants.

  10. jb says:

    That is one of the most unflattering outfits I have ever seen on a man. Everything about it is all wrong.

  11. Minky says:

    LOL… wasn’t this who Stephanie Meyer wanted to play Edward? *smirk*

    He really is a very good looking man. He was wonderful the Tudors and he definitely makes an attractive Superman!! Glad to see new pics of him.

  12. Quest says:

    Oh lawd! Oh Henry!

    Yes!

  14. novaraen says:

    Well he must smoke…because I see an iphone in one pocket and what looks to be a pack of cigarettes in the other. 🙁 He is nice to look at though.

  15. xxodettexx says:

    omg, he is gorgeous

  16. Amanda G says:

    I’m sure he’s a handsome man, but I can’t get past that terrible outfit he’s wearing.

  17. ccp says:

    Nice, but no superhero-actor-posing-with-kid picture will ever reach the level of cuteness of this in my eyes: http://www.devildollmedia.com/lj/capandkid.jpg

    Doesn’t hurt that Chris Evans’ cheeks are even more pinch-worthy than that kid’s :3

  18. Hannah says:

    He could play a real life Gaston in Beauty and the Beast.

  19. Angelique says:

    OMG, he has a new fan !!! Love himmmm

  20. dj says:

    That picture with the little boy is so adorable! I love him just for that alone. Plus, he is just a great looking Superman.

  21. NeoCleo says:

    He is magnificent.

  22. NeoCleo says:

    Hannah–you are spot on!

  23. Amanda says:

    Henry’s hot!

  24. maeir says:

    Considering he was recently mistaken for Matt Bomer I think we should excuse Cavill’s naivete in thinking he could come and go from the Marmont without getting recognized.

  25. darkladi says:

    not really digging him as Superman, but I’ve been down with him since the Tudors..yum!

  26. Emily says:

    I can’t tell you how happy the picture with the little kid makes me. It’s just so adorable! Plus I had a nightmare last night where Cavill did some very disturbing things, this post has just washed my brain clean, thank you!!

  27. pato says:

    oh god no, why Henry? bad outfit, bad place. just go back to England and be the lovable actor you are, not a Hollywood shallow hunk. and that movie? bloody hell, did the studio force you to sign in to it??
    I used to love you Henry!!

  28. ema82m says:

    He is just devine, I’ve been a massive fan since I saw him back in 2003 in a British movie I Capture the Castle…def woth checking out if you are a Cavill fan!

  29. pap says:

  30. He will always remain to me the pretty boy that was trying to be brave in the count of monte cristo…….’do your worse’
