Exclusive: Henry Cavill Starring In Adaptation Of Novel The Rosie Project

A trusted and proven source for Giant Freakin Robot has provided the answer. The actor has signed on to star in an adaptation of The Rosie Project, a romantic comedy that’s been in the works for several years now.

Henry Cavill will play Don Tillman, a genetics professor who has never been on a second date, but who now aims to fall in love. Tillman has Asperger’s syndrome (now referred to as autism spectrum disorder). The professor knows exactly what he’s looking for–everything that the bartender Rosie is not. She’s wild, chaotic, and carefree. The opposite of Don Tillman. The pair link up when she needs help finding her birth father and aims to take advantage of Don Tillman’s skills with genetics research. 

This is an interesting next move for Henry Cavill, who appears to be looking to diversify the roles he’s playing.

This sounds more like the Clark Kent side to him. It wouldn’t be surprising at all to learn the professor character will be wearing glasses. His character is going to be detail-oriented, organized, and uptight. While the rom-com will have him be a swoon-worthy character, it’ll be different than when he takes his shirt off for The Witcher.

Or is HC secretly into science? OMG, if that’s true, let it be chemical science. OMG, if it’s chemistry, I may need a cold shower each time I hear his name. innocent

Your showers will remain warm bc HC isn’t into science. He wanted to study Egyptology. rofl

@Sue-Yin said:

Is HC still Napoleon Solo hot? thinking

Yes, he is. revolving_hearts

He watched Fallout with Cavill in Paris, shortly before the official premiere in July 2018. “I held onto Henry’s arm for the whole thing – it’s like a fucking tree trunk. I was holding onto his bicep because it was so scary, but at the same time I was thinking, ‘Jesus Christ! These are huge!”’

SP just wanted to hold HC’s arm. lol

I’ll change my plan to stalk HC for a pic and an autograph and then be on my way into a plan to kidnap him and keep him captive until he loses the weight.

Hurry up with plan B. HC’s eating too much. lol Did you see the FB post of the pizza delivery guy? rofl

  1. Met superman (Henry Cavill) last night. Spoke on the phone getting directions for few minutes as was delivering food and was 1 in the morning dark Road all house names and mansions... only to pull up to the mansion drive through gates to see someone tall and muscular with his American akita by his side... only till I jumped out and got close enough to give food I realised its superman was shocked and speechless. What a moment
  2. Couple pizzas and chips and jalapeños cheese bites

BTW, what kind of pic would you choose to get autographed?

HC said he’ll explain fun, crazy science. So at least one cold shower to look forward to.

He wanted to study Egyptology. rofl

The word ‘Egyptology’ makes my head spin.

Relax, Ann. HC won’t get fat because of one cheat day a week.

Did you see the FB post of the pizza delivery guy? rofl

Isn’t that guy afraid of losing his job? Celebs may not order at that pizza shop anymore. Everybody will know what you order.

BTW, what kind of pic would you choose to get autographed?

No pic. I want the autograph on my leggings. I’ll wear a white leggings and ask HC to sign my butt or thigh. He should take his time and write as much as possible.

To my biggest and prettiest fan Violet Lizbeth Rose Galgary. From your Ken doll from Jersey, Channel Isle, Henry William Dalgliesh Cavill.

Somethin' llike that. zany_face

You need a butt like Kim K for that amount of text. It’d be fun to see HC’s reaction. laughing

Imagine he asks you if you're Blue Rose. What will you do?

@AnnaB said:

HC won’t survive if he eats 1000 calories a day. All the beautiful muscles will disappear.

  1. Couple pizzas and chips and jalapeños cheese bites

Jet lag and cravings.

Old hags think “little brats” like you will destroy HC’s career. Please, don’t let HC touch a hair lock on your head. I want his career to blossom. joy

A little too excited. He named places and the distance to where HC was too.

The writing can continue on her thigh all the way down to her calf muscle. Next day the headlines might be that HC was being a perv. rofl

@Sue-Yin said:

That’s a good Q. But why would he ask me that? I’m not sure what I’ll do. I’ll definitely be shocked and probably pissed. Let me think about it. thinking

Like HCF wrote, continue on my thigh.

Little brat heavy_check_mark

Everything’s right in the universe.

I’m afraid I can’t do that. The only way my butt won’t get signed is if HC refuses. zany_face

The Economic Times: Steve Falk, who served as co-executive producer on the hit Netflix series "Orange Is the New Black", will write and direct the movie. Matt Tolmach and Michael Costigan are attached to produce "The Rosie Project".

That article is from July 2021. Any other news? I really want to see HC play a professor. Preferably, a chemistry professor. He’ll be so delicious. He should wear glasses and a white coat with some chest hair showing. He should have messy curls and a stubble. He should hold a book that has chemistry or chemical somewhere in the title while he writes a very difficult chemical equation on a chalkboard. Yes, that’s the kind of thing sweet dreams are made of. heart_eyes

Can you imagine HC saying something simple like Dihydrogen Monoxide or Cyanogen Fluoride with that beautiful voice and accent? Oh, yeah. That will hit all the G-spots in my brain. The more difficult, the better. He should read terms like that to me while I sit on his lap and comb his soft curls with my fingers. hugging

@Blue-Rose said:

I can imagine HC saying all kinds of things with his beautiful voice and accent... just... not... chemistry stuff. Can HC even pronounce those words? joy

@Blue-Rose said:

HC will be hot as any professor. Hotter as a gym teacher in tank top and little shorts. innocent

Exactly. Who would image HC saying chemistry stuff? Obviously people into chemistry stuff would. lol

I miss the MTech shorts. cry

@Cashmere said:

I can see HC's brain working overtime just to pronounce those words. The left side of his brain will wonder if that's English while the right side will wonder if that's a new way to tell people to go to hell. laughing

These are very clean-cut AI-generated HC professors.

I'll miss those MTech shorts too. But it's better to not promote workout supplements. Too much of that going on. Everybody thinks they're experts. Thanks to socials like TikTok, things have gotten very crazy. It's like followers want you to tell them what to do. The crazier, the better.

Why is having big muscles the best version of yourself? You need to overdo the protein to grow muscle. Overdoing something is not a good thing. You should be fit. That's important. You shouldn't be out of breath after a few steps up a stair. IMO, HC can slim down a little.
