Henry Cavill Talks About Suiting Up for MAN OF STEEL!

Movie Man of Steel Henry Cavill about 13 years agoby Billy Fisher

As we all know, Zack Snyder is bringing us another version of Superman. I love what Superman is all about and I can only dream about putting on the iconic suit. Well, the man who gets that honor right now, Henry Cavill, spoke with TotalFilm about what he had to do to prepare for wearing the suit.

I’m on 5000 calories a day… You’ve got to eat protein first, then a little bit of carbs…you’ve gotta keep your hunger levels going. I’m training two and a half hours a day, pushing my body beyond its normal limits, putting on a lot of muscle mass and just making myself look like Superman

This is what he had to say about putting on the suit for the first time:

It’s extremely cool. There’s no other feeling like it.

They just put it on, I turned around and look in the mirror and you can’t really play it cool – you sort of guffaw and laugh. I thought ‘OK, holy hell, this is real, it’s not a joke anymore. This is it…you’re doing it, you’re right in the middle of it.

I can only imagine what it would be like to be in that role. Let us know what you think.
