Henry Cavill shaved his beard & went to Ireland for a boozy, smoky vacation

wenn22661611

I feel like it’s been forever and a day since I’ve devoted a whole post to Henry Cavill. Let’s do this! These are photos of Cavill over the weekend at the Groove Festival in Ireland. For some reason. Like, did Henry fly to Ireland just for the Groove Festival? Does he have a lot of Irish friends? Does he like to sit in a Irish field and drink foamy pints? Sure. Why not? Henry even shaved his beard since we last saw him. He looks nice – he’s a handsome man, beard or no beard.

I suspect that Henry probably is on vacation right now, trying to relax before his publicity tour for The Man From U.N.C.L.E. UNCLE comes out August 14th, which doesn’t really bode well. There are two dumping grounds for films which the studio believes will underperform: they are dumped in the January-February haze when most people are focused on the Oscars, or they are dumped in August, when most people are on vacation, getting drunk on a beach. What I’m saying is that no one believes UNCLE is going to do very well at the box office. If they really believed in this film, they would have given it a June or July release date. It also sucks for both Cavill and Armie Hammer – this film was supposed to be a “comeback” of sorts – this is the first release from Cavill since Man of Steel in 2013, and the first major starring role for Hammer since his turn in the disastrous Lone Ranger.

Sigh… what else is going on with Cavill? Batman v. Superman won’t be out until next year. I don’t think he’s dating anyone significant right now either. That might help him promote UNCLE – get a celebrity girlfriend for a few months!

Also: I didn’t know he was a smoker!

    You put a man by a port-o-john and all I see is Gerard Butler. oh well.

    • Myriam says:

      He’s so meh to me. I mean, don’t get me wrong. He’s cute. But if he was in front of me, I’d look and say, “Oh he looks good,” and walk away, He doesn’t entice me to stick around and stare.

      • Serenity says:

        In the Superman movie, I thought he was so beautiful it hurt. But when I see him in real life pics and in interviews, he is indeed so “meh”….

  2. lisa2 says:

    I wonder if he is required to be clean shaven when promoting Superman. He is going to Comic-Con.

    I actually want to see Man from Uncle.. it looks campy and fun.

  3. Zapp Brannigan says:

    Pity I didn’t know he was here, I have a friend that would have been all over him like he was a big plate of floury potatoes.

  4. Abbott says:

    Those jeans are giving his lower half dad bod.

    • lizzie says:

      he looks like such a dweeb!!

    • Hautie says:

      OMG… they are tragic. What happen to men not knowing their body shape?

      This a man built for the original Levi 501 button fly. He has the right shape… that really short squat thick build… that those jeans know how to appreciate.

    • LAK says:

      The jeans are giving impression he has massive thighs, like you see on rugby players. You can see the big muscle definition in the legs.

      Trousers, particularly jeans, are always a problem for men with those thighs.

  5. OhDear says:

    He’s gorgeous, but he’s probably not going to age well.

  6. Mia4S says:

    @Kaiser I disagree, August hasn’t been a “dumping ground” for years. See Guardians of the Galaxy, Bourne movies, Signs, Rush Hour, Sixth Sense, Ninja Turtles, The Fugitive? Tastes may vary but those are huge hits. Considering they originally had the movie scheduled for January the move seems like a massive vote of confidence.

  7. Sos101 says:

    I swear he used to look good in pictures…what happened?
    Wanted: new celebrity crush

  8. Damn says:

    He is a douchbag. Awhile ago he said to a woman her breasts aren’t big enough for him and yesterday he made homophobic comments to a 19 year old guy. Of course his fans are always trying to discredit those people but he also loves to date animal abusers. Ugh.

    • Anne tommy says:

      Animal abusers?

    • Zapp Brannigan says:

      What homophobic comments? Wow thats just jackass behavior right there.

      @ Anne tommy I think Cavill was dating a girl a while back that into hunting but she was posing with her kills online in a really obnoxious way, people were freaking out because he was supposed to be an animal lover.

    • Toodles45 says:

      @Damn, what? When did this happen? I’ve read he isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, but wow

    • Valois says:

      Where did you read that?

      • serena says:

        He invited a bunch of random people to his hotel room for an after-party, totally drunk from what it seems. All the ‘civilians’ were shocked to see how nice he was etc. But at some point, he turned to one of the -apparently gay- kids he just met/invited and in front of everyone, casually said “I can’t hear you over your gayness”. He then added what he said was not homophobic since he has many gay fans and the kid cannot be offended by it.

        Total drunk straight douche.

        Well, the kid was offended by it and posted a written anecdote of sorts about it as an image on Instagram. He said smtng like ‘disappointing to see a successful moviestar is just as homophobic as normal people’ (not verbatim).

        Apparently Henry was his ‘BAE’ celeb before that.

      • serena says:

        oh, it was all posted on Instagram but the kid afterward took it down. His selfies with henry stay though for whatever reason. he must be crushed…

      • julia says:

        “he has many gay fans” nope, he said he has many gay friends

        the weird thing is that the guy erased his post

  9. wow says:

    Always got time for some Henry sexiness. Rrrrroaw.

  10. Tiffany27 says:

    He dresses so terribly it’s almost adorable.

  11. Nancypants says:

    Stinky cigarette, yellow teeth, greasy hair. Yeah, that’s hot.

    Where are his people?? Shouldn’t they tell him about this if he is promoting a movie?

    He’s got the body and the face but I just think dirty and smelly.
    Maybe they don’t care.

  12. RobN says:

    Top picture so cute until I saw the pinky ring. Something about pinky rings on men that sucks the hot right out of them.

  13. Freebunny says:

    He looks happy, that’s enough for me.

  14. LAK says:

    I like him here. He isn’t posing hard and therefore po faced and stiff.

  15. Don't kill me I'm French says:

    Are there any paps in Ireland ?

    • Mia4S says:

      Sure are. They actually get their own edition of the Sun and Mirror. Lucky Irish she said sarcastically.

  16. wow says:

    Oh bummer, he smokes.

    But I will force myself to ignore that fact when I look at him.

    • Mia4S says:

      The ironic thing is I’ve also seen photos of Chris Evans smoking. Superman and Captain America? Both the Boy Scouts! Gasp!

      Although if the cocaine rumours about Evans are true I guess the cigarettes don’t seem as bad. 😕

  17. morc says:

    I know his brother and relatives serve/d in the armed forces but his very public support in this awful sweater is seriously weird to me.
    There is no questioning of imperialism and colonialism, just unwavering support.
    He’s starting to look like a beardy english Sarah Palin to me and ican’t lust after that.
    Disappointing.

  18. VIcki says:

    He lived in Ireland for years when he was on the Tudors, specifically in Bray, Co Wicklow, where this festival was. And yes, we have paps. *sighs*

  19. Fan says:

    The first time I saw him in the Superman movie, I could not believe my eyes that there was someone this good looking. I thought I first that he was a CGI.

  20. serena says:

    What happened to his smile? His teeth are so yellow. The photo w/ the beer? He looks old.

  21. julia says:

    “Does he have a lot of Irish friends?”

    I think he filmed The Tudors in Ireland…
