Henry Cavill has been dating Gina Carano for 4 months: hot or not so much?

I only heard about this yesterday, from LaineyGossip, but it looks like the rumors have been around for a while. Why did no one tell me?!!?! Apparently, Henry “Superman” Cavill is dating Gina “UFC badass hottie” Carano. On a simply superficial level, what do you think? HOT, right? Ever since I read Lainey’s story, all I can think about is the crazy athletic sex Gina and Henry must have. They must be bouncing off the walls. Mmm.

I basically only know Carano from Haywire, which I actually really liked, mostly because Carano was so strong AND feminine and badass, and because the supporting cast was AH-mazing (Banderas, Fassbender, McGregor, Pullman, Tatum!). I also grew to like Carano during the promotion of Haywire, where she seemed self-assured but not conceited, self-contained but not smug, with a very natural physicality and sensuality. And I always thought that Fassbender picked up on those qualities too, because I could have sworn… those two might have had something. Fassy always said that he was very happy to have his ass kicked by a girl, and if you’ve seen the film, boy does she ever kick his Irish ass.

Anyway, I’ve done some cursory investigation into this pairing, and it seems legit. Henry split with his fiancée in August of last year, and by September, there were already sightings of Gina and Henry together, although all of the nerds immediately went to “Superman and Wonder Woman!!” nerd-speculation rather than “two hot people boning.” Then in December, UK outlets quietly claimed that Henry had met Gina in September and they had been “taking it slowly” since then. As for the Wonder Woman rumors… I totally wouldn’t hate that. Out of all of the actresses that get mentioned for a possible reboot of the Wonder Woman character, Gina would do it justice.

Sigh… I want a sex tape of these two. Mmm.

    Lucky girl! That is hot news, they must have great sex!

  2. marie says:

    they’re both hot, but I’m still meh

    • Christina says:

      Agreed. Henry Cavill is ridiculously beautiful, but oh-so-bland.

      And a really crap actor too.

    • Liv says:

      I don’t like them together, she seems so…I don’t know. They seem so weird together.

      But I appreciate that he’s with her, because she’s not super skinny and so I still have a chance, ha! 😉

  3. caro says:

    Gina dated Fassbender during Haywire filming so she likes handsome guys

    • Ms Kay says:

      They never dated, people just assume so for whatever reason. Indeed Michael Fassbender was blatantly hitting on her hard even during interviews and she was blushing and giggling but like trying to mask she was uncomfortable, she never gave in. And he even invited her to the Shame premiere but she never came because she said she wasn’t comfortable to see him full frontal naked on screen. Anyway he bounced back with Nicole Beharie in the meantime…

    I don’t know why but I believed Henri Cavill was gay

    • Lauli says:

      Same here.

      • Christina says:

        There have been gay rumours following Cavill around since his Tudors days. But then, the same could be said about most hot actors. Not sure if there is anything to back up the rumours.

    • Post-Its says:

      Maybe people are confusing him with Matt Bomer.

    • Miss M says:

      @Caro: I really don’t care either way, I like him and I think he will be a great Superman. However, I think the rumours started way before The Tudors because of some photos of him with a friend online. I had the links, but I decided to remove them.

  5. Meow Mix says:

    I really want to find him hot but just can’t. He just seems 2 dimensional to me for some reason.

  6. Elceibeno says:

    Henry Cavill is very sexy but he’s not tall enough to play Superman.

    • DSS says:

      He is 6’2″ how tall does he have to be?

      • elceibeno08 says:

        There is no way he is 6’2″. I’ve seen some of his movies and he doesn’t look that tall. Christopher Reeve was tall and he looks it in his movies.

      • Christina says:

        Cavill’s height is listed as 1m85, which is just a smidgen above 6 foot. That sounds about right for him. He’s tall by ‘normal person’ standards, but shortish by action hero standards.

    • elceibeno08 says:

      This is a reply to Christina: Well, his legs don’t look as long as the very first Superman in the 1950’s. Nor Christopher Reeve’s legs or Brandon Routh. So Cavill has very big shoes to fill in that regard.

  7. David99 says:

    Haywire was kinda of a cool movie.

  8. Lisa says:

    She looks older than him, and he’s obviously hotter than she is.

    • Christina says:

      He’s 29, she’s 30, so they’re pretty much the same age. But I agree – she’s the oldest looking 30 year old I’ve ever seen.

  9. Toniko says:

    Dude is so dull, pretty – but still, and there is no ounce of charisma in him..

  10. Malaney says:

    Fassy and Henry Cavill??? This broad has to be the luckiest bitch alive! i hate her.

  11. Jade says:

    Vanilla. Both of them. Pure vanilla sex. Zzzzzz

  12. Kate says:

    The nerve of people who stan for that Cumberbatch snobby bitch or the weird Hiddleston and let’s not even talk about the Oedipus Gosling or Cooper are hating on this beautiful man?
    Bitch please!

    He is very reserved and private, doesn’t insult anyone and keeps his personal life private. When he starts alerting People mag like Gosling or staged photo ops with his contracted girlfriends than slam him.

    He and Gina are fit and heathly looking unlike the hipster actors.

  13. Lizzy says:

    I am literally green with envy! I want to have sex with Gina Carano; she is so sexy and badass! And Cavill is not bad as well..

    Damn I want to be the meat in this celebrity sandwich – they are one hot couple!

  14. Vee says:

    Love him, can’t wait for Superman. And, WOW, gorgeous couple.

    • elceibeno08 says:

      Even though Henry is not the best fit to play Superman I loved him in the first season of The Tudors. His face looks beautiful bearded.

  15. Miz Misanthrope says:

    I’ll tell myself it’s Gina’s way of working up to the super hero she really deserves-a friend of mine and I are convinced she and Chris Hemsworth are perfect for each other and eventually when Elsa the Terrible leaves poor Thor heartbroken Gina will be therefor the rebound. Now that will be crazy monkey sex because you know I totally have the power to matchmake random celebs. I joked once about Sean Penn and mush mouth Johansson and it really did end up happening

    • j.eyre says:

      If this woman lands Fassbender, Cavill and CHemboy we will need to come up with some special award for her. I can only imagine what the award would look like and what it would be made of.

      I really have no idea who she is, but I think she is my new hero.

  16. Mirella says:

    Lucky girl. 🙂

  17. Talie says:

    He seems to have a type…his fiancee was also quite muscular.

  18. Mew says:

    Oh outch, so hot. Lucky girl, the sex must be awesome.

  19. Mel says:

    Yeah she’s a rough 30 but I agree with a previous poster, getting beat up for a living will do that to you. She’s still pretty though and sexy. He’s just gorgeous.

    Maybe he likes getting smacked around.

  20. The Original Mia says:

    Hot couple. Love them both. Haywire was good and Man of Steel cannot get here fast enough. Happy for them.

  21. aims says:

    Noooo!!! Hes supposed to be with me! Im a virgo hes a taurus, it would be perfect.

  22. Miss M says:

    I am going to be yelled at, but whatever…

    I don’t think they are hot at all. I find her extremely masculine, and I thank Steven Soderbergh for doing the disservice to put her in the movie industry. Oh, Haywire sucked big time for me…

  23. Rux says:

    This is so freakin’ HOT! I saw Haywire in the theater and had to beg my husband to go and we were both floored by how good the movie and Gina were. I have also watched this numerous times on Netflix. Go GINA!

    I thought she did such an excellent job at making her character strong, independent, feminine and a total sexy bad ass.

    Sigh, I wish I could kick like her.

  24. Ailine says:

    She’s gorgeous in a non anonymous way. Great dimples. Congrats on dating hot men and being a fighter.

  25. Gm says:

    I wanna bone him. 🙁

  26. OhDear says:

    She’s gorgeous. He is too, though hopefully she’ll help him learn how to dress?

  27. only1shmoo says:

    Thanks for making me feel like less of a perv…I was hoping for a tape too 😉

  28. lori says:

    I still think this is a showamce. But I do appreciate that he broke up with the fiance after her DUI. I have no respect for drunk drivers and am glad that won’t be tarnishing superman’s image.

  29. I’m glad Henry likes women with some meat on their bones:) look hott!!

  30. leco435 says:

    I don’t know why, but I don’t like this couple. She’s looks (very) older than him; he looks like a kind of man very polite, like a gentleman and she looks like… very sporty, informal. I was watching videos of her and reading interviews to know her (you have to know before criticize, right?) and I don’t like her (for him) Obviously she has qualities like everyone, but I don’t like them as a couple. God bless them both, but I don’t see them as a couple.

  31. TheOriginalKitten says:

    HOT. Very hot.

  33. Stacy says:

    I think you’ve fallen prey to the common Pullman/Paxton conundrum. 🙂

  34. Marty says:

    Hot Hot Hot! I think they look great together, I really like seeing beefy guys with women with muscular body types, I dunno I just find it sexy!

  35. BDD says:

    I always imagined him with somebody more lady like. Search for Gina Carano drunk, argh, horrible pics, not classy at all. He is so proper, so articulate,speaks four languages, went to a posh school in England. I wish he could find somebody more sophisticated than Gina. They look good together, though.

  36. Claudia says:

    I don’t find him hot or terribly appealing either, but his dating Gia Carano (who has such a cool name) suddenly makes him more interesting. I was watching some old clips of her fighting in the UFC and goddamn, she was so badass. And hot. SUCH a great smile. Her hands are really manly and big though, but that’s what you get when you earn a living trying to pound someone into mush :). I’d like to see her in more action movies, for sure.

  37. Borg Queen says:

    I have had a girl crush on Gina Carano since AMerican Gladiator days (her name was “Crush”). She is strong bad bitch. But I was disappointed with Haywire because of her wooden acting. She needs acting classes if she wants to do justice as Wonder Woman. I thought Henry Cavill was a widely guessed answer for a blind about an out actor playing a superhero who was forced back into the closet by his reps.
    They are a hot couple though I have known a few closet gay men went for butch strong women so ….

  38. Alana Fajina says:

    OMG- who are these people and Where Have I Been?!?! I want to jump through my computer screen for that pic of him in the blue suit!!! Dayyyyyyum!!! And I LOVE the outfit on Gina in the top pic- I want that dress!!!

    [Sorry about all the exclamation points, but this post got me excited :)]

  39. Samantha says:

    I met Gina Carano a couple years ago, and she is unbelievably beautiful in person. Like, stop and stare kind of beautiful. Pictures don’t do her justice.

    I like Henry more for dating her, rather than going after the typical starlet.

  40. Ms Kay says:

    I really don’t understand those who find somewhat flaws in Henry Cavill.

    He is ridiculously good looking, very reserved and very well spoken and very polite. He may not be the best of the best actors but he is doing his best thus decent enough, and was fine enough in The Tudors and he sure was close to get the Bond role until they realized he was too young, and finally the casting directors were impressed enough to choose him for the Superman role… What else? Because he doesn’t have rabid fans nor is controversial or is very low key? Not that it isn’t allowed not to be attracted to him but I’d take him over Ryan Gosling a heartbeat.

    Clearly I’m missing something…

    *goes back home to husband Hiddleston*

  41. Boo says:

    They are both meh!

  42. Isa says:

    My first thought was man those are some thick arms.
    But it’s nice to see a woman action star that isn’t a size zero. IMO but when you’re a lot smaller than the men you’re beating up you can’t fight the way they’re portrayed in the movies.

  43. Amilu says:

    HOT. He’s beautiful, and she’s sexy.

  44. Lexi says:

    He’s pretty hot

  45. Issa says:

    Hot.Hot. Hot!!!!!

  46. Elle says:

    I think the reason people don’t care for Gina is because she has a reputation as a drunk and is a horrible actress.

    Sorry. Love him but not a fan of them as a couple.

    And Gina would make a horrible Wonder Woman. Horrible. She can’t act her way out of a paper bag.

  47. meme says:

    LOL They are both gay. It’s just a double bearding. Are you people living under the rock or something?

  48. Hoya_chick says:

    Haywire was a TERRIBLE movie! So much bad acting, so little time. So cliche and trite. Charming Potato cannot act I don’t care want anyone says. And Gina was terrible, so terrible.
