It doesn't happen often in the career of a Hollywood star that they have the luck (and certainly the ability) to land the “role of a lifetime” twice. In Henry Cavill's case, these were Superman in the former superhero universe of Marvel competitor DC and as Geralt of Rivia in the Netflix series The Witcher.
The 41-year-old Brit has now lost both roles and has had one or two flops in the cinema. Nevertheless, the Hollywood star probably doesn't have to worry about his professional future. With his partner and Hollywood producer Natalie Viscuso, Henry Cavill wants to film Warhammer 40K as a mega series for Amazon. And on top of that, the couple are expecting a baby. A very special film with Henry Cavill also has what it takes to be a huge hit.
