England lost bc of HC’s half-arsed support. confounded

Is Brexit’s fault. rofl Will they stay in? Will the get out? Who can play rugby with that on their mind? Even HC’s half-arsed support is because of Brexit. You can’t support a team with that on your mind. Stress clearly sucked all creativity out of him.

England vs Montenegro today. Perfect for HC to start practicing crazy. The book “Crazy for Dummies” dictates baby steps. Paint a liitle flag on the cheek, spray some temporary hair color in the hair, buy underwear with little flags on it !?!?! thinking

As you may have heard, Season 2 of The Witcher has been announced! To mark the occasion I thought I'd share one of my favourite shots from my Season 1 personal collection.

Check out the latest Men's Health this month where I lounge, splash, chill and throw cards....yes, you heard it right, I will be throwing cards. You lucky things you. The most exciting thing about this issue however, is that the masterful trainer Dave Rienzi joins me to help explain some of my training techniques throughout the filming of the Witcher! Thank you, Mr Rienzi, for your time and your knowledge!

Henry Cavill Is Still Superman

“Henry carries himself with a lovely sense of authority and confidence,” notes Lauren Schmidt Hissrich … . “He doesn’t blend in very easily.” Indeed, once the half dozen or so customers get a look at the guy with the bumper-plate pecs and three-mile-wide shoulders … a few start staring at one another with furrow-browed disbelief …

Other superstars of his generation, like three of the four guys named Chris, tend to balance out their mega movies with smaller, less CGI-intensive efforts. Cavill, though, is unabashedly dedicated to the sorts of films that necessitate huge budgets, months of physical training, and mammoth Comic-Con rollouts.

As Cavill browses the aisles, some of the clientele sorta-discreetly close in on him. The actor preempts any awkwardness by turning around, shaking hands, and chatting everyone up before they can tap him on the shoulder. One customer imitates Cavill’s fierce “fist cocking” motion from Fallout; another bonds with him over Alien, a film that spooked Cavill when he was a way-too-young kid living on the English Channel island of Jersey.

Cavill’s stayed silent about such gossip for a long time, to his occasional frustration. He fought for years, facing down countless rejections and close calls, to land a part as cosmically iconic as Superman. It’s a role, and a character, he guards fiercely—and insists he hasn’t let go. “The cape is in the closet,” Cavill says. “It’s still mine.”

Over the past two decades, Cavill has grown accustomed to exercising in whichever city he happens to land in. … They’ve all served as home somewhat recently, though he notes that he doesn’t really live anywhere: “I’ve been a bit of a nomad for 19 years,” he says.

In conversation, he is thoughtful but rarely wanders beyond his self-set parameters: He doesn’t discuss his love life in any way, and even a seemingly innocuous query—like asking if he has a favorite among the countless memes his Superman mustache inspired—finds him demurring.

“I was desperate to get away,” Cavill says. His parents, who worked in finance, sent him and his four brothers off to get a private education, nearly causing the family to go broke. In his teens, though, Cavill’s big concerns were slightly more myopic: Somehow he had become one of the most unpopular kids. He’d do things he considered chivalrous—like admonish his classmates for flicking up a girl’s skirt—and find himself branded a “lemon.” (The nickname, he explains, means “a boy who tries too hard with the chicks.”) And he was picked on for his weight, earning another taunt: “Fat Cavill.” “I was a chubby kid,” he says.

Cavill eventually slimmed down, thanks in part to playing sports like rugby. But it wasn’t until he began acting in school stage productions that he felt more comfortable in front of others. “It actually helped me survive,” he says. “Even the kids who were nasty to me at times and took pleasure in squashing me—when I finished a play, they’d say, ‘Wow, you’re really good.’ And I was like, ‘Okay, this is where I draw my strength from.’ ”

Cavill also ended up in a relationship with a woman he met through one of his on-set colleagues. “I really hadn’t dated much at that point,” he says. “I had my first love on that movie [The Count of Monte Cristo].”

[Kevin] Reynolds, who’d helped shape Kevin Costner’s career, was another early believer. “Even back then,” the director says, “I felt like Henry had the moxie and the ability to become a star.” The rest of the industry wasn’t so sure. Over the next several years, he found himself “living on sofas, and by the good grace of girlfriends and friends.” Cavill auditioned regularly—and sometimes terribly. For 2003’s The Lion in Winter, he read with Patrick Stewart and walked out flustered. “I was so shit,” he says. But at least he went back and tried a second time—a move that earned kudos from Stewart. “It’s terrifying going into auditions,” Cavill says. “You put your hand into a dark hole and just hope that something comes out. It’s not like being fast or strong, or being good at football. Sometimes the acting is just bad.”

To screen-test [for 007] , he had to walk out of a bathroom wrapped in a towel and reenact a scene from one of the Sean Connery–era films. “I probably could have prepared better,” Cavill says. “I remember the director, Martin Campbell, saying, ‘Looking a little chubby there, Henry.’ I didn’t know how to train or diet. And I’m glad Martin said something, because I respond well to truth. It helps me get better.”

“I wasn’t ecstatic about not getting these things,” Cavill says, “but I was so used to disappointment from the acting business, and also from boarding school. ‘No, you’re not good enough’—that wasn’t anything new to me.”

“It [Immortals] was my first experience working on a movie and having my shirt off for most of the damn time,” he says.

‘Man, well done. [HC’d say]’ It’s not like I’m a golden god—I’m just proud of what I achieved. And then you can take your clothes off in front of your significant other, and they’re like, ‘Goddamn, you look great!’ Like, ‘Yes! I’m making other people happy.’ ” Yet some have suffered for Cavill’s intense love of the gym. “I wouldn’t say we ‘worked out’ so much as I acted as Henry’s trainer,” jokes costar Ben Affleck of their time on Batman v Superman. “I really had to help him increase muscle mass—before my coaching, he looked like Gumby.” He adds, “In all honesty, we did work out together. And I hated it.”

Watching U.N.C.L.E., says director Christopher McQuarrie, led him to cast the actor as the evil-genius villain of Mission: Impossible—Fallout. “Something in Henry’s comic timing told me he had talents that weren’t being exploited,” says McQuarrie. “I found he had a charming sense of humor—at which point I knew he could be a villain. The best villains enjoy their work.” Cavill’s U.N.C.L.E. performance also made an impression on Schmidt Hissrich, The Witcher’s producer.

“It’s funny how much he’s actually like us,” he says. “Geralt has that thing of trying so damn hard and being misconstrued or not appreciated—of people having a negative opinion of you, despite you actually trying to do the right thing.”

He’s cautious when discussing the films themselves, so consider these assessments the height of his candor: Man of Steel? “A great starting point. If I were to go back, I don’t think I’d change anything.” Batman v Superman? “Very much a Batman movie. And I think that realm of darkness is great for a Batman movie.” Justice League? “It didn’t work.”

Cavill almost reprised his Superman role for a blip-sized cameo in this year’s Shazam! but says he couldn’t do it because of his Fallout schedule. That absence—coupled with the fact that The Witcher could wind up ... like epic that eats up a huge chunk of his calendar—furthered the speculation that his time in the cape was finished.

“I’ve not given up the role. There’s a lot I have to give for Superman yet. A lot of storytelling to do. A lot of real, true depths to the honesty of the character I want to get into. I want to reflect the comic books. That’s important to me. There’s a lot of justice to be done for Superman. The status is: You’ll see.”

“The status is: You’ll see.”

I can’t believe this. I think HC and this McKenzee guy is trying to pull a fast one on us. You can’t show how to work out with your shirt on. I need to see how the muscles contract and stuff. I need to see the end result too. For all I know, HC could be hiding a beer gut or love handles under that T-shirt. I’m furious. persevere But we all know that won’t last. HC’s the hottest thing since sliced bread.

Nothing like diving into @HenryCavill's training regime for @WitcherNetflix to kick off your week with some 'big-ass' motivation!

So for each character he follows a different diet and work out. This vid focus solely on G’s work out, which is good for horse riders and swordsman. So not really for the average gym rats. But HC says that this McKenzee guy has been guiding him for a couple of years. So he’s his personal trainer, not someone Netflix assigned to him?

Yeah, he could have said that last year instead of letting everybody spend countless hours playing Sherlock Holmes on this. rofl

McKenzee? Are you on flu meds? That’s Dave Rienzi. He’s DG’s hubby and DJ’s and HC’s personal trainer. I think he’s the one who guided HC during the filming of MI6. So he’s been his trainer since April 2017 or so. Yeah, that's a couple of years. If rumors are true and this was shot during the JL reshoot, we'd have to thank him for that. And he’s definitely the one to thank for this. blush

Since we’re on the subject, we have to thank MB for this and this, MT for this, RB for this and… HC for this. rofl

Let Google do its magic or look through the posts on the WO thread for the articles, vids and pics of HC training with those guys. If you’re a gym rat, you‘ll find the part were they explain the grueling training fun and educational.

Btw, in case your memory is playing tricks on you, RB is Ricky Blanchard, HC is Henry Cavill, MB is Michael Blevins and MT is Mark Twight. rolling_eyes

Let’s continue reminiscing. sunglasses

WB and DG both released a pretty clear statement, but the modern Sherlock Holmes didn’t accept them. They also ignored some important facts.

  1. HC had King stache. So he was still busy with MI6.
  2. MI6’s insurance paid HC to not take any other job.

Nuff said? Yeah but nah. Need more facts.

  1. S!’s director said that they shot the SM scene in a school canteen during a school holiday bc that was the only time they could do it.
  2. HC had King stache during all Canadian school holidays.

Nuff said? Yeah but nah. Need some theories.

  1. WB was still traumatized by the stache CGI disaster and wasn’t going to do that again.
  2. CGI cost a lot and S!’s PB had to stay low.
  3. If they cut SM’s head to avoid King stache, then it doesn’t matter who is in the SM suit.

Nuff said? Yeah but nah. Need to hear it from HC himself.

  1. “The cape is in the closet,” Cavill says. “It’s still mine.”

Nuff said? Yes!

Each trainer made an amazing job with a body part.

  1. The medal for best arm workout goes to DR
  2. The medal for best back workout goes to MB
  3. The medal for best abdomen workout goes to RB.

If there is a medal for best workout to look fluffy like a marshmallow or beastly like a Neanderthal, it would go to respectively HC and MT.

Nicely put. Although, it would have been better if it had the allege contract negotiations that went sour and the allege arrogant MOS 2 demands that fell on deaf ears. All BS, but it would be fun to see how you’ll explain it in a creative manner. grinning

“Made an amazing job?” Isn’t it did an amazing job? I swear English is getting weirder by the second. Or… Google translate is tripping.

I knew he looked familiar, but I thought he was tall like DJ. But HC seems like three/four inches taller than him. That’s why it didn’t cross my mind it was him.

Thought I might break out some old fashioned memories using actual photos!! Luke Evans and I met on Immortals quite a few years ago (as you can see!) and immediately got along. They say that everyone from Wales can sing.....this is definitely not true...I've heard some things,....Luke, on the other hand, most definitely can!! So well in fact, that he's just released an album called At Last. I've been playing it for the past few days and it's genuinely really good. It's a recommended buy from me! Congratulations old friend! You did it.

Evans

The best memories! Here’s to many more, and a huge thank you brother!!

This is Ailbhe Lemass, she has been the lady in charge of my face for quite a few years now. She even groomed The Kingstache! She also expects a dance every time she does my touch ups, as you can see. She's very demanding.... Jacqui Rathore, who you will meet later, did my hair.....as you can see, she's very good.
